I can't post all the ones that changed because I have a lot of college work to do now, can someone check and add them to the sprites section?
 
Sprites have often changed between versions of the same gen (notably also between Hoenn nd Kanto in Gen III IIRC). It will probably all be part of the spritebox redesign coming in time for Black and White.
 
We're getting to them. Considering it's gonna be a hoot to redesign the template for the BW sprites... got any ideas that'll make it NOT look like crap for any Pokémon?
 
If you are talking about a template to accomodate all Back Sprites:

Then the BW Line could use the same style. Specially when Pokémon "Gray" comes out :p
 
What about a .gif for the backsprites that changes every few seconds or something?
 
I can see one problem with that design: Deoxys. It'll need special coding to alter the template to allow it to show different sprites for FR and LG.

I'd actually been fiddling with coding for a very similar layout (offline and only previewing cause at the time it was 504ing ten times for every time it would load a page)
The only issue I was having was getting the corners I wanted to be roundy to actually be . However since I was basically just modifying the existing templates it would take a bit too long the put the coding I've got up on my sandbox.

*checks folder* 21 text files, ranging from 264 bytes to 7.33KB

Here is a sample of what I'd got. Ignore where the sprites actually are. There will be one sprite under each coloured header. The rows on the existing template (the sprites) don't fit in with my headers. Hence 21 different files. Not the best quality, but it'll have to do.

Are you saying they're not uploaded to the Archives yet? I could help with that if need be. Until the template is redesigned, it couldn't hurt to have the sprites ready for when they're needed.

...you're funny. Limited freaking colorspace mean nothing to ya? If it were animated, it'd be png. And even then, people would be like "THATS NOT HOW MY SUEYKIN ANIMATES IN HUGS I WILL CHANGE IT ON ARCHIVES TO A PICTURE OF MY BUTT".
 
TTE, stop being so melodramatic.

The design posted by Master Emerald is a doable thing. I would like to see the games together (i.e. the order for the fourth generation would be DPfront DPback Ptfront Ptback HGSSfront HGSSback).

Yeah, it's gonna have problems with multiforms. Yeah, it's gonna have problems with genders (albeit not so much). There is the possibility of having the spritebox run on time switches like the rest of the multiform's page, with links to another BP page with all of them/archives category.
 
You mean a bit like this trom? It's coded to separate out FR and LG for Deoxys when the ndex parameter is its ndex number.

Bulbasaur only has the backsprite for DP uploaded (I checked on the archives), so the others are broken. I remember TTE saying what name they should be uploaded with at some point, but I can't find it, so it might be looking in the wrong place anyway.

Only the Gen IV sprites are coded correctly at the moment, so I've left the others hidden.
 
Yeah, but I reckon you should do Diamond and Pearl as two rows with a colspan of 2 each, so that they're stacked on top of each other.
 
There you go. Only another 19 different subtemplates to change and upload and it'll be compatible with everything up to and including Gen IV
 
If we do a "DP front, DP back, Pt front, Pt back" thing... we're gonna have to move all of the backsprites, since they're named by generation rather than by game.
 
@TTE

I made that layout using fucking MS WORD. Now stop being assy. I just wanted to show the ORGANIZATION of the sprites. If you didn't want a solution, you shouldn't have asked for one.

Also, I use both IE and Firefox but IE is my main browser because It's better supported by my fingerprint reader device.
 
would it be possible to just have the latest front & back sprites (either version - black/white just use black as it's 1st alphabetically or w/e) on the page then have a separate page for all of the sprites?
