Checking In

Hey Antiyonder, thanks for all your recent edits. It has been a while since I have been through the Dragon Quest III and IV pages.

I think I have the spam account stuff under control, so hopefully that makes it easier for new users to create accounts. Let me know if there is anything you need. --FlyingRagnar (talk)

We have an official partnership with the Dragon's Den. So any images there can be uploaded here. There are a lot of maps and such that can definitely be useful. Feel free to grab them and upload them if you want to use them. --FlyingRagnar (talk) 15:28, 13 October 2013 (CDT)

Yes. We 100% have permission, which is why I added that option to the drop down, so you can specify that the file came directly from the Dragon's Den. --FlyingRagnar (talk) 08:47, 14 October 2013 (CDT)

Sorry I'm late to reply. Looks like you uploaded 2 images and they look good! I'm not sure what conversions you would need to do? --FlyingRagnar (talk) 13:55, 16 October 2013 (CDT)

The magic key image is just formatted on the page to look like that. The image itself doesn't have that information included. For example, here is the code that places the image on the left: [[Image:DQVIIIMagicKey.png|thumb|left|150px|here is my example]]. --FlyingRagnar (talk) 14:36, 16 October 2013 (CDT)

GIF conversion bug

Antiyonder, you found an interesting bug. Basically the image conversion was failing for .gif images whenever they needed to be resized. I'm not sure why this effected just .gif images. It's hard to say when the problem started because we have not had very many .gif images uploaded for a long time. Anyway, I have tweaked some parameters and now it appears that gif thumbnailing is working fine. Please give any resizing another shot. You are right, those maps are too big to leave as is on pages. --FlyingRagnar (talk) 01:44, 17 October 2013 (CDT)

No, we don't have specific permission from any other site. However, most images from other sites are not "original" content like some of the Dragon's Den stuff is. Most images are owned by Square Enix since they have not been altered in any way and can be used under Fair Use laws. Dragon's Den has a lot of the maps that have been put together by someone. --FlyingRagnar (talk) 23:05, 17 October 2013 (CDT)

Yes. If I see any that might be an issue I'll let you know. --FlyingRagnar (talk) 08:37, 18 October 2013 (CDT)

Endor Teleportal

I believe it refers to the latter, the teleportal within the shrine east of the Bazaar. It's important because it's the only outside link for that continent to another continent. --FlyingRagnar (talk) 08:18, 22 October 2013 (CDT)
