| |
| #{{User|LeftyGreenMario}} Ugh. Where to start. The quality and resolution of this picture is very stunning (if viewed on the highest resolution.) If anyone is going to oppose this for boxart, well, this is the full image. The boxart cuts some of it.
| |
| #{{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} Dunno what to say. I'll support anyhow.
| |
| #{{User|KS3}} Great pic with great resolution and great quality.
| |
| #{{User|MATEOELBACAN}} - Colorful, Why Not :P?
| |
| #[[User:Lu-igi board|Lu-igi board]] lol at Wario
| |
| #{{User|Gamefreak75}} YES! Now that's an image. I actually think the waves give it a unique look. Per all.
| |
| #{{User|Commander Code-8}} I'm glad the thing Wario is shaking repeatidly looks better than Mario's legs in the saw picture.
| |
| #{{User|McQueenMario}} Nice!
| |
| #{{User|New Super Mario}} I wonder what would happen if Wario was actually skinny?...... Can't see that happening!
| |
| | |
| ====Oppose====
| |
| #{{User|Turkishcoffee }} Awful picture. The background "waves" are too distracting. The characters seem to be in a different art style than the background. The eye is pulled to the top right corner (due to the aforementioned "waves") and then just falls down into the negative space by the garlic. The colors are oversaturated, and not in a way that works for it. The shading on the chest looks strange to me, more when compared to the shading on the coins in the pile (creating an impossible scenario , as the chest does match Wario, unless light has different properties in the Mushroom Kingdom). Also the blur effect with the enemy looks wonky to me. Not sure why. Picture is "Stunning" in a bad way.
| |
| #{{User|Mr bones}} Per Turkishcoffee.
| |
| #{{User|Fawfulfury65}} Wario is one fat man.
| |
| #{{User|Homestar Runner}} Per all.
| |
| #{{User|Dark Boo}} I'd like to add something but theres nothing left to be said. Per Turkishcoffee.
| |
| #{{User|Phoenix Rider}} I'm generally against having boxart as FI. It just makes it seem like we're running out of ideas.

| ===SMG2 Artwork===

| |
| #{{User|Baby Mario Bloops}} I was right! I said to wait just in case we get a better more awesome picture of that SMG2 thing. But we had it featured, and now a better version of it came. Well, I'm about done with that. More detailed than the last one, has a great quality, etc and etc...
| |
| #{{User|KS3}} A better picture came, but it came too late. If it gets less than a difference of 8, then it won't be featured (There is a proposal about removing the FI, it's already 8-nothing, and it's going to pass next sunday.).
| |
| #{{User|Fawfulfury65}}
| |
| #{{User|McQueenMario}} Thats a BIG yes.
| |
| #{{User|Zero777}} I am Zero! I guess so since it will be released in a week. Zero signing out.
| |
| #{{User|Mariofanatic64}} What's better than soaring through the skies with yoshi? Seeing Mario doing it.
| |
| #{{User|Dark Bowser}} Too bad we put up that other one...
| |
| #{{User|Dry dry bones}} Awesome! This is much better than the last one. I'm super exited for this, it comes out in six days!
| |
| #{{User|baby dk}} beastly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
| |
| #{{User|Arend}} I agree with anyone supporting.
| |
| #{{User|Koopalmier}} Beautiful, colorful and dynamic, much like the game itself. Good quality, too.
| |
| #{{User|lpsc00l}} I love it!!! the colors are bright and it is creative, fun, and clear....who cares if it is boxart??!!
| |
| | |
| ====Oppose====
| |
| #{{User|Time Q}}: Seriously, we can't feature another image that looks almost exactly like an already featured one.
| |
| #{{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} Now that's just sad. We already featured a cruddier version of it and I bet people who visit the site are sick of that image already.
| |
| #{{User|LeftyGreenMario}} ''shakes head sadly''
| |
| #{{User|Commander Code-8}} I wasn't even a user then and I know a similar image was Featured.
| |
| #{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} Per all. (Except Commander Code-8 because I was a user back then.)
| |
| #{{User|Mr bones}} Oh come on!This was already featured!It's not the same image but it looks like the other one!
| |
| #{{User|Homestar Runner}} If this is the better image, just ''replace the other version''.
| |
| #[[User:Lu-igi board|Lu-igi board]] I agree with homestar runner
| |
| #{{User|Phoenix Rider}} See the Wario picture comment. I'm generally against boxart at FI.
| |
| | |
| ====Comments====
| |
| This is ''so'' going in BJAODN. {{User|Homestar Runner}}
| |
| | |
| Can we just come to a consensus agreement to unfeature the currently featured SMG2 picture and feature this in its place? I was afraid we would encounter this exact situation when new artwork would be released, and I think it would be much easier and as long as nobody's against it, it seems like the best way to go about things. EDIT: Now that I check more closely, the currently featured image is literally a cropped version of this one. Nothing would be lost if we featured this one instead.--{{User|Marcelagus}}
| |
| | |
| :I totally agree with you, Marcelagus. People are so impatient these days. {{User|Gamefreak75}}
| |
| | |
| ::Only problem, the FI would be no more because of the [[MarioWiki:Proposals#Main Page Overhaul|proposal here]] by next week, so it's pretty much useless. {{User|KS3}}
| |
| | |
| @Homestar Runner: I disagree with your oppose for one simple thing: The smaller one is a JPG. However, THIS one is a PNG. {{User|Arend}}
| |
| :Don't you know PNGs are preferred. --{{User|Marcelagus}}
| |
| ::Hey! Sysops! Overhere!!!!!!!!!!! Can I just replace the older image with this image now? {{User|Baby Mario Bloops}}
| |
| | |
| ::: What's the point, though? There is no process of recycling images (so far), so I don't understand this whole "unfeaturing" and "replacing" thing. Tsk. If some of you guys read my (and other people's) comment previously on "waiting until a better one arrives", we wouldn't have this problem. {{User|LeftyGreenMario}}
| |
| :::::Exactly! They could of been patient and listen to the users that agreed with me and waited for a better version to come. But no, they had to be impatient and feature that image. Now I just waited to be proven right and a better image to come forth. It did, and now it bit back at them and that is what caused this whole mess to start. I just want to replace that other image with this one, but I don't want to get in trouble with the sysops.{{User|Baby Mario Bloops}}

| |
| #{{User|Commander Code-8}} I think this image is great. It does look like it's drawn but that's one of the things I like about it.
| |
| #{{User|Mariofanatic64}} This is a great classic image. The only issue is the size. It probably won't get featured but i'll support.
| |
| #{{User|Dry dry bones}} This is a really cool pic, but what game is that? I think it should be a featured image.
| |
| | |
| ====Oppose====
| |
| #{{User|Fawfulfury65}} By far too small.
| |
| #{{User|Mr bones}} It's small and like you said, it looks like it's drawn.
| |
| #{{User|Zero777}} I am Zero! Too small. Zero signing out.
| |
| #{{User|Dark Bowser}} I would love to support, but it's way too small...
| |
| #{{User|LeftyGreenMario}} Awfully plain, low quality, and low resolution.
| |
| #{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} Per all opposers. Exactly. Waaay too small.
| |
| #{{User|McQueenMario}} Per all. Size ''is'' a problem.
| |
| #[[User:Lu-igi board|Lu-igi board]] I don't like it at all.
| |
| #{{User|Damariogamr}} This image looks weird. The bullet bill in the background is orange, Lemmy looks like he saw a ghost, and Wendy looks like she's practicing for a Mixed Martial Arts fight......for the spoiled.
| |
| #{{User|Phoenix Rider}} Not only all that but it doesn't look official at all.
| |
| #{{User|Gamefreak75}} Per all.
| |
| #{{User|GalacticPetey}} Per all. Also to fuzzy.

| |
| | |
| @Mariofanatic64: How is this a classic image, it's from a game that nobody bought, or likes, and I bet more or less everyone here has never seen it before. {{User|MrConcreteDonkey}}

| |
| #{{User|Platitudinous}} I think this is a high-quality and detailed image of two iconic characters.
| |
| #{{User|Fawfulfury65}} And I always thought ''Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'' was the end of the series! Great image, I like their poses. Diddy looks awesome!
| |
| #{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} I would normally vote no because of the white background, but I'll make an exception for this one, great quality!
| |
| #{{User|MrConcreteDonkey}} Legend rebirth FTW!

| ====Comments====
| |
| {{User|Platitudinous}} @MrConcreteDonkey: That is ''so'' true! ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' for GBA was my first video game and is still one of my favorite games today. I'm glad they're making another one now.

| |
| #{{User|MrConcreteDonkey}} Very bad quality, and overall very boring.
| |
| #{{User|Fawfulfury65}} Small.
