Artwork from DMA
Hello, is it allowed to use the Toei artwork found in this folder (excluding the sub-folders) for this wiki? --Grandy02 12:29, 26 December 2011 (CST)

Sure. I would be surprised if there was anything there you guys are missing though.

If want you want to use is in the main Toei folder, you don't need to credit the DMA, as those were just directly downloaded from a Toei site. --Deviate 13:29, 26 December 2011 (CST)
 * Thanks, most images are indeed already here, but several of the jpg ones (those that look like edited scans) aren't (e.g. Asuramon, Baihumon or Candmon). Can you still say what Toei site it was? Just curious, I'd like to know where all those old gifs were taken from. --Grandy02 14:45, 26 December 2011 (CST)
 * I remember raiding the exact Toei site, but I can't remember the url. I'm pretty sure it was an english-language one (think it might have been an official Fox Kids one).--devkyu 16:16, 26 December 2011 (CST)
 * Devkyu; I remember there being a Bandai of America website that had a ton of the small .gif Toei images. Are you thinking about that one? It was discovered around the time Tamers was first being aired in America.
 * That's the one! I can't remember if I found the folder on my own or someone on Megchan's old board pointed it out, but it was essentially just a directory full of gifs. I remember being pretty surprised they had art of all the devas.--devkyu 00:11, 27 December 2011 (CST)

Grandy02; Now that you mentioned it, those images were not obtained from a Toei site. I think they were cropped from a Digimon Tamers and a Digimon Frontier anime book. Looks like I got the Baihumon image back in 2004 and the Asuramon and Candlemon image in 2007. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful with your question. --Deviate 20:38, 26 December 2011 (CST)
 * Okay, thanks. I wonder what website it was exactly (for the gif files). Anyway, I just found some more HQ art via the Wayback Machine, maybe it isn't at your site yet. EDIT: Just found the aforementioned folder, too. --Grandy02 04:26, 27 December 2011 (CST)
 * That's the one! I have no idea how you were able to track that down. Maybe you could also find the old Digimon FAX Contest winners page too? Although a lot of people have already tried on that one. --Deviate 11:54, 28 December 2011 (CST)
 * Actually, it wasn't that hard, I checked an early 2002 version of Bandai.com and spotted the Digimon poll with all the small artwork. Then I checked a picture's URL and the rest is self-explanatory. Sorry, the only Original Digimon Contest pages I found are these ones. --Grandy02 12:50, 28 December 2011 (CST)
