Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Opinion of the author

Welcome Commons. Changes you made on 4 of my images are inoportunes. Before editing images, it is customary to take the opinion of the author. Thank you. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 07:57, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for that, will remember that. But what was exactly wrong with the images if I may ask? Hawky.diddiz (talk) 01:41, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

It's fun, because I wanted the other day, ask yourself the same question. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 11:20, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

They all are pretty large so I compressed them with jpegtran, lossless mode and keeping exif data. As I got compression rates up to 66% I thought it would be a good way to save bandwidth. Hawky.diddiz (talk) 13:38, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Ok I understand. In fact, as you saw, archiving is done in several formats. For a very small icons, small (for afichage in Wikis) a means big. They are automatically made ​​from the largest file. Those who consult encyclopaedias have the file smaller and the bandwidth is not altered. Those who want to print images (we solisité by many newspapers) can load the picture high resolution. the image in high resolution must remain very high resolution. You're full of good intentions, continuous and do not hesitate to ask questions, the "elders" are there for that. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 16:06, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Thanks. Of course the images need to keep their quality and resolution. That's what lossless compression means. I know, the smaller preview/embedded images are generated and optimizing the original image doesn't affect these, this works better for smaller images that are used in full size. But I'm still not sure what was wrong with the optimized images. Hawky.diddiz (talk) 23:58, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

File source is not properly indicated: File:Parma-Stemma.png

This media was probably deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Parma-Stemma.png, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file ([[:File:Parma-Stemma.png]]). If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work. If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!
