Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Although we invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Mario, was not constructive and has been reverted or removed.

Regarding Mario

The reason I reverted your edits is because you were making the images larger than necessary. While rare, there are people that still use smaller screen resolutions, and the article may look weird with text wrapping around huge images. Disaster Kirby 20:27, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Image size

Please note that images such as those you resized on Sonic the Hedgehog are for illustrative purposes only; they are not meant to faithfully display every detail of the original, and should not unecessarily enlarge the infobox in which they are included. This is why they are displayed smaller, side by side. Thank you, Miremare 22:29, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Image size 2

Please don't keep resizing images when there is more than one in the infobox. This makes the infobox unecessarily large and there is no need for images to be such a size for them to be recognisable. Thank you. Miremare 19:45, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Seriously, you need to stop doing that or you'll end up getting yourself blocked. Miremare 23:27, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

I have no problem with infobox images being 250px when there is only one, but when there are two, such as in Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit) and Sonic 3 it enlarges the infobox to a frankly silly degree. The images are there for illustrative purposes only, not to show every single detail of the picture. I'm not the only editor to have reverted this, so if you want to have two 250px images on these pages, please start a discussion on the relevant talk pages to find out if there is concensus to do so. Thank you, Miremare 17:02, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

I was referring to infobox images, not those in other areas of the article. I reduced the size of the Master System and GBA images in the Sonic article for a specific reason, which you have not addressed. Also, do you know how intrusive such large images can be to people using lower screen resolutions, such as 800x600 or even 640x480? Believe it or not, such people are still around!
