Posting graphics on CSDb guidelines
Just an idea:
Personally Id like to see all interlaced graphics be posted as either a 2 frame animated .gif (quite ugly) or 2 frames merged (the preferred choice). As posting interlaced graphics in hires misleads the viewer.
Another idea I think could work:
All images uploaded should meet an X, Y size guide (384 x 272 is ideal). Once uploaded, all images would be filtered, so that all 16 colour images use the same pallet. Likewise, Ifli, SHIF would be filtered so that they use a pre defined pallet.
Maybe this is asking too much, but I think it could work.

Write it in stone for interlaced stuff:
- blurred 256 col. PNG as main screendump (ja)
- an optional download link to the dithered version
- animated gifs or whatever makes you happy - to the comments, production notes or trivia
Seems to me that some people still don't understand that the screenshots on this site are references to the real, C64 versions - no more, no less. And therefore, should be threated as such. What's the drama about?

@Wile Coyote: I think my point was missed, or I didn't make it clear enough, either way...
I prefer seeing a screen shot with each and every release. The quality of the screen shot shouldn't matter because you simply can't duplicate what you would see on a c64, is the point I was trying to make. |
