Fugus Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 I took my Wii U collection of 734 games, I made sure to have each of them assigned to the proper game in the database and added any missing titles to the database. Then I took the actual games icon image and background art it shows when you load them game and converted it to PNG format at its native resolution. Would i be allowed to upload this to the site or would it be against the rules? Want to make sure before I do it. Quote
C-Beats Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 You have an example of the icon/background? I can't immediately think of any reason not outside of the fact we really don't have an image type for icons so not entirely sure what would be best for that. Probably Fanart - Box Front Quote
Fugus Posted October 7, 2022 Author Posted October 7, 2022 Was asking because these were taken directly from the WiiU games themselves. Wasn't sure on the rules on uploading something like that. But it is 100% of the icons and backgrounds from all the games in the list and them assigned to a database entry. Quote
C-Beats Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 Yeah. Those are fine. I'd just put them in the image types I referred to. We really don't have a great place for the icons, but the backgrounds would be a nice add as we tend to have a lot of holes in that image category in the database. Quote
Fugus Posted October 7, 2022 Author Posted October 7, 2022 Can, it is 100% of backgrounds too from the entire collection and they are all US based games but 1 which Cemu labels as "Many". Not sure exactly how to set it up on there as this will be the first time, but have made the packs already so should be pretty easy, will set it up and link it here to make sure I did it correctly.

C-Beats Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 I was referring to if you upload to the Games Database. Both could be uploaded as a pack to the forums without issue as well if that's what you were referring to. I'm sure many would appreciate it being in both. Quote
Fugus Posted October 7, 2022 Author Posted October 7, 2022 Might try and upload some to the database itself in the future, but not likely for the next few days if anyone else wants to start. All of the images should be linked to the proper metadata I believe too. Quote
