Thanks Sahana! The cropped ones are good enough. Even though it looks like the white-tipped, as you can see, its cilia at apex of forewing is not tipped white. And while white-tipped is tailless, this one is tailed from what I can see. Even though I'm not 100% sure, I would go for Common Lineblue, the next best match.

yep but when i upload those they shrink in to small size. I can email it to you if you don't mind, and kind enough to give ur email address as well.
