== The small Pikmin policy and AR watermark fix==
== How to make high quality Decor Pikmin Animation GIFs ==


Okay, so we established that small Pikmin are required to make the gifs so that the animations are shown efficiently. However, there are MANY sizes of Pikmin (I think five) and chances are that the tiniest Pikmin size may not be used, as well as we may not have a consistent size for every gif. If that is going to be the case, I suggest that any of the possible two small size could still be used. The main priority is to make sure the Pikmin's whole model fits within the required gif proportions.
Ezgif is a good website for making GIFs.


Also, one of the recent updates added an AR watermark when viewing a Pikmin's model on their info page. There is a way to fix this by selecting a Pikmin in the Pikmin menu and sending it to the [[Garden]] by tapping on the nectar button. Pick up the Pikmin and zoom onto it with the magnifying glass. This leads you to the Pikmin's info page, but this time, the AR watermark is not there, which allows you to film the Pikmin's animation without it being there on the top left corner.

== Making a list of which decor sets that are "Certified small" (+ AR watermark potentially) ==
This leads you straight to Video to GIF option.


I thought about keeping track if which decor sets have all small Pikmin gifs, so that they do not need reworking anymore.
 
To make a high quality decor Pikmin animation GIF, follow these steps:
 
1. Upload the file of the decor Pikmin animation (see Conditions for uploading a GIF before filming a GIF).
 
2. Cut out unnecessary extra footage in the GIF. Make sure to leave out a bit of the Pikmin's idle animation for the beginning and end of the GIF to display the full animation smoothly.
 
3. Set the max Frame rate (FPS) to 33 (max 10 seconds) to make the GIF's footage smooth. Some decor Pikmin animations may take longer than 10 seconds, so you may need to make the GIF FPS to 25 (max 12 seconds). Then press '''Convert to GIF!'''
 
4. Go to '''Resize''' and make the width 240 and height 420. Then press '''Resize video!'''
 
5. Go to '''Crop''' and make the width 240 and height 320. Then press '''Crop video!'''
 
6. Finally, save your GIF file! :D

== Conditions for uploading a GIF ==
 
When filming a Decor Pikmin animation, you want to make sure that the Pikmin's stem is a leaf, and not a bud, flower, seasonal flower, or bare. This is because the leaf maturity of a Pikmin is the default state, as they eventually reset back to leaves daily.

If that is going to be the case, I suggest that any of the possible two small size (or acceptable size) could still be used. The main priority is to make sure the Pikmin's whole model fits within the required GIF proportions. This is a common issue when it comes to Purple and Rock Pikmin.

Some decor categories may have a number next to the decor type in the file, such as Sticker and Puzzles.
 
 
When summarizing the file, the description should look something like this:

How to make high quality Decor Pikmin Animation GIFs[edit]

Ezgif is a good website for making GIFs.

Link here: https://ezgif.com/video-to-gif

This leads you straight to Video to GIF option.


To make a high quality decor Pikmin animation GIF, follow these steps:

1. Upload the file of the decor Pikmin animation (see Conditions for uploading a GIF before filming a GIF).

2. Cut out unnecessary extra footage in the GIF. Make sure to leave out a bit of the Pikmin's idle animation for the beginning and end of the GIF to display the full animation smoothly.

3. Set the max Frame rate (FPS) to 33 (max 10 seconds) to make the GIF's footage smooth. Some decor Pikmin animations may take longer than 10 seconds, so you may need to make the GIF FPS to 25 (max 12 seconds). Then press Convert to GIF!

4. Go to Resize and make the width 240 and height 420. Then press Resize video!

5. Go to Crop and make the width 240 and height 320. Then press Crop video!

6. Finally, save your GIF file! :D

Conditions for uploading a GIF[edit]

When filming a Decor Pikmin animation, you want to make sure that the Pikmin's stem is a leaf, and not a bud, flower, seasonal flower, or bare. This is because the leaf maturity of a Pikmin is the default state, as they eventually reset back to leaves daily.


We established that small Pikmin are required to make the GIFs so that the animations are shown efficiently. However, there are MANY sizes of Pikmin (I think five) and chances are that the tiniest Pikmin size may not be used, as well as we may not have a consistent size for every GIF. If that is going to be the case, I suggest that any of the possible two small size (or acceptable size) could still be used. The main priority is to make sure the Pikmin's whole model fits within the required GIF proportions. This is a common issue when it comes to Purple and Rock Pikmin.


Also, one of the game's updates added an AR watermark when viewing a Pikmin's model on their info page. There is a way to fix this by selecting a Pikmin in the Pikmin menu and sending it to the Garden by tapping on the nectar button. Pick up the Pikmin and zoom onto it with the magnifying glass. This leads you to the Pikmin's info page, but this time, the AR watermark is not there, which allows you to film the Pikmin's animation without it being there on the top left corner.

Uploading the file with name and summary[edit]

When titling the file, the name should look something like this:

PB_[Type]_Pikmin_[Decor].gif

Some decor categories may have a number next to the decor type in the file, such as Sticker and Puzzles.


When summarizing the file, the description should look something like this:

An animation of a [Pikmin Type] with a [Decor] from Pikmin Bloom.
