Well then. There has been a bit of a disagreement on whether or not we should resize the sprites in the Mystery Suits table, even resulting in a borderline [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Costume_Mario&oldid=1887731 edit war] (no fingers pointed at anyone). The advantages of not resizing the sprites is that they are more accurate and consistent to, say, ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''. However, I can say that I can ''barely'' see them in their current size, especially with good old [[Necky the Fox|Necky]] towering over them all. Right now, I would rather resize them slightly, but I'm going to wait to see what you guys think first.

So this bit I'm rewriting, courtesy of Walkazo's suggestions.. This is what the costumes currently look like;
{| class="unsortable" border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=3 style="border-collapse:collapse"
|-style="background: #ABC;"
|bgcolor=silver|[[File:Chibi Robo.PNG|center]]
|}
As you can tell, the background is the wrong colour and it is hard to see. Below are a few possibilities provided by, again, Walkazo. (I had to mash 'em together)
{| border="1"  style="float;border-collapse:collapse;background:black;color:white" cellspacing="2px" cellpadding="3px" valign=center align=center
|-
!1x
!2x size
!3x size
!4x size
!100px
|-
|style=background:#6B8CFF|[[File:SMM Sheik.png|center]]
|style=background:#6B8CFF|[[File:SMM Sheik.png|center|30px]]
|style=background:#6B8CFF|[[File:SMM Sheik.png|center|45px]]
|style=background:#6B8CFF|[[File:SMM Sheik.png|center|60px]]
|style=background:black|[[File:SMM Sheik.png|center|100px]]
|}
Now, 100px and 4X is too big. Black is also a bad colour to use, as it still blends in with some characters. The natural size and maybe 2X is, in my opinion, too small. But I think that 3X the size is ''just right'', along with a sky blue background, seen in [[SMB]]. Those who have voted "big" will be informed that this means 100px, and I have added a "Leave it alone" and a "3X" option. Thanks for reading.

====Small!====
====Keep the size, change the background.====
#{{User|Baby Luigi}} I have trouble with my vision (it's about -5.00 in my left eye, which is unable to read the large '''E''' in eye exams, to get the idea of how bad my vision actually is; my right eye has refractive amblyopia on the other hand.) and I can see the sprites perfectly fine. Also, what size do you want them to be? I'll oppose 100px size sprites, simply because they're too huge for small sprites. The reason we leave them this size is the same reason we don't artificially increase the size of 8-bit screenshots or sprites in the wiki; it's because it's not the actual size of the image. We shrink images in order for them not only to actually display them in the page, but to lower the loading times as well. What does making it large does? The main issue with these sprites is not because of their size, but their relatively low contrast they have to the background compared to other sprites, due to a lack of a black outline, like any 8-bit sprite, not because they're small. We don't enlarge any other sprite in this wiki when we display them on their respective pages, neither should we make them large because people can't "see" them.

#{{User|Roy Koopa}} Big = Blurry. Blurry = Bad.
#{{User|Bazooka Mario}} I've been strongly supporting keeping them at native sizes in the comments around here, so per those and the ugly infant who voted.
#{{User|SuperYoshiBros}} Per Baby Luigi.
#{{User|SuperYoshiBros}} Per Baby Luigi.
#{{User|PowerKamek}} I have good vision, but they do look blurry to me when they are too big. I'd rather have them small so they have better quality or whatever. Per Baby Luigi.
#{{User|Yoshi876}} Per Baby Luigi on the consistency across the wiki.

#{{User|FlamingJumpCat}}As I said in the previous discussion, he problem I had with them was that some sprites are barely noticable,Chibi-Robo for example. And I understand that the wiki is meant to be the most reliable native source, but it should also be where people go if they want to clearly see the sprites in  all their glory, and not have to zoom in to have a blurry picture or put the sprites in a editor and make them bigger, so I propose to give them an approximate 42px code: Example http://imgur.com/EuCBUeH  13:33, 14 September 2015 (EDT)
#{{User|Corrin}}I agree with {{User|FlamingJumpCat}} and {{User|Pyro Guy}} on this one. While I understand and agree on {{User|Bazooka Mario}} and {{User|Baby Luigi}}'s reasons for keeping the sprites at their natural size, I also have vision problems (ie. a stigmatism) and I can barely see them. I think it's a better idea to give them 42px code, that way the the image files stay their natural size, but on the table they appear visible.
#{{User|Mariobro101}}I do understand why people would argue how the images should stay the same, but, like {{User|FlamingJumpCat}} & {{User|Corrin}}, I think it should be slightly bigger so you can see all of the details on the sprite without it being blurry as much. Also, when I did edit it yesterday, I put it at 100px, & then I realized that they were too big, so then they were changed back. But, testing out smaller sizes, like I said before, it works well.

#{{User|Toadbrigade5}} Per all.
#{{User|ChromStrikes}} I don't get how the bigger ones are blurry? They're literally sharp pixels, there's no blurring in the images at all.
#{{User|Metalex123}} Per all.

#{{User|The Pyro Guy}} I think that I'm gonna vote big, mainly because I don't wanna go through a long process just to look at an 8-bit image in detail. Despite Baby Luigi's points (that I agree with) the benefits of resiIng outweigh the disadvantages, IMO. 35-45px would be good.
#{{User|Aokage}} Per all.

#{{User|Baby Luigi}} Per all.
#{{User|Bazooka Mario}} This is a good compromise.
#{{User|The Super Mario Super User}} Better idea, per all.
#{{User|Corrin}}As I said in the comments, the silver background has got to go. I'm not against 4X the size, but 3X the size is a '''''way''''' better compromise.
#{{User|Tails777}} Per all.
