MarioWiki:Featured images

At the Super Mario Wiki, Featured Images are those quality, intriguing, witty, provocative, rare, important, and otherwise simply interesting images that can be found throughout the site's articles. Users are encouraged to submit and vote on nominations for the Featured Image displayed on the Main Page. Every week (on Thursdays at 17:00 GMT), a new image is selected to be featured. This is done by subtracting the number of oppose votes from the number of support votes in each nomination - the image with the most "points" at the end of the week will be featured. Any image with a negative amount of points at the end of a week (that is a nomination with a majority of opposes) is removed from the selection process. The only condition for nominated images is that they must be in an actual mainspace article on the wiki. No personal images or images from non-mainspace pages are allowed. New image nominations can be added to the Featured Image Nominations section below.

Archived nominations of images that were featured in the past are found here.

A gallery of all Featured Images can be found here.

Krem Quay

File:KremQuay65.jpg

• Subject: Artwork of Krem Quay from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
• Nominated by: Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Support

1. Fawfulfury65 (talk) Awesome picture! Nice size, and a lot of detail. I LOVE this picture!
2. I was wondering when a DK snapshot would appear! Lu-igi board
3. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Interesting, high quality, good colouring... need I say more?
4. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! Not bad, it's a nice big image. Zero signing out.
5. YoshiDaisyfan1 (talk) Per everyone. Dixie looks adorable btw. ;D
6. Panchito It's good, despite the fact it's yet another DK image.
7. Koopsrules (talk) Very excellent picture. Truly unique!
8. Papero (talk) DKC images are a rarity. This one's rather interesting.
9. KS3 (talk) Looking at the image again, the picture doesn't look faded at all, and the characters don't look weird.
10. LeftyGreenMario (talk) It's not faded anymore! What's wrong with my eyes!!!??? Anyway, the "fading" was really letting the picture down. Since I see no more fading, the picture is great (good quality, colorful, no white backdrops, pretty interesting). P.S. Diddy Kong looks like he is made out of wood. Check out his wrists. :P

Oppose

1. McQueenMario (talk) - I just don't like it.
2. MATEOELBACAN (talk) - Per McQueenMario...
3. lpsc00l (talk) I agree with McQueenMario, The animations are just real bad. they both look like demented muppets!!
4. Raphaelraven497 (talk) Its brown. brown is poop. poop ugly.
5. Marioguy1 (talk) - Per LGM (in the support section). I don't realize why people support if they can see any problem with the image. These images are no different from FAs - they are to be the best on the wiki. If you can find a single problem with the image, oppose as it will not properly represent the wiki's quality and that will defeat the entire purpose of having an FI system in the first place. For example, in this image, the colors are faded and it basically represents no action! Why feature it? It has problems and does not properly represent the images of the wiki. There are many other votes like this strewn across the page (and the archives) that support just because a certain character is in it or because everyone else supports. That is not a good thing to do and I hope people stop doing it.

Comments

I don't know what to say about this picture. It's good quality and a nice size, but it's faded and IMO looks boring. Plus, why are Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong always have the same expression, no matter what the situation? BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

@Raphealraven497 - Umm... It actually has many dark colors and shades of green to fit into the swampy theme. Brown isn't really the main color of this picture. Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Hmm, can't decide. I don't like the color scheme, but the quality is good. Karinmij (talk)

MG1: Woah, calm down. I think these people think that the flaws are too minor to be considered, and it still looks great on the main page. Maybe other people won't see it as faded. Maybe they will. But still, no one is forced to add a reason why they like it. I don't know why, but rules are rules. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Sorry, I just have seen so many votes where the reason gives a bad point and for some reason, people think that these are any different than FAs. FIs represent the best images, FAs represent the best articles. In the FAs, people won't let an article be featured because there is a tag on it, here they're letting something with a logo go by. In the FAs, people won't let an article with no images be featured, here they'll let an image with no background be featured. Those are both practically the same thing yet people think of it differently because of the rules. IMO, if they can't put a good reason - don't vote (like I did for the hand-drawn one) Marioguy1 (talk)

I don't understand what's so bad in this image. It doesn't look faded at all to me either. Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Go here and look for a slight mist all over the picture - that's not mist, it's fading. Marioguy1 (talk)

Too bad Featured Images cannot be improved easily, unlike articles. One has to find a better picture and reupload that. Otherwise, no one can really improve an image. LeftyGreenMario (talk)

The best thing to do here is just not nominate the imperfect image. I've seen several images with large problems that people have nominated anyways. Marioguy1 (talk)

I still don't see where it fades. I don't know where else to get a better version or anything either. Fawfulfury65 (talk)

I don't see any fading either. Only the ray Diddy is pointing at. Time Q (talk)

@MarioGuy1: There is no such thing as a "Perfect Image". People are allowed to nominate whatever they want. Garlic Man (talk)

First off, "Perfect Image" was theoretical - it wasn't meant to mean a perfect image. I meant it should be a very good image with almost no visible problems, good size, no logo, not blurry or misty, a nice background, lots of color and action, etc. And Secondly, I never said they weren't. I asked them to look at the images before they nominate them to make sure that they really think the pictures are as perfect as they can get them and not just do it because they like the image. I agree liking the image is a nice thing but chances are, if there's a problem but you like it, other users won't. Marioguy1 (talk)

Don't know if it helps the nomination, but I've uploaded a bigger version of the image. Grandy02 (talk)

Bowser Striker

File:BowserStrikersj.jpg

• Subject: Bowser's artwork from Mario Strikers Charged Football.
  
• Nominated by: Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Support

1. Fawfulfury65 (talk) - Although this is character artwork, its big, high quality, and seems to have a lot of action in it! It's also extremely detailed and you can tell it was drawn by a pro artist!
2. Lu-igi board lol at bowser! truly the coolest footballer the world has ever seen :P
3. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) I don't know why, but Bowser looks mighty aerodynamic when he's like that.
4. Time Q (talk): I like it. Great quality.
5. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! Ok, I guess I'll support it, it's a nice big image. Zero signing out.
6. lpsc00l (talk) Sure it is a character artwork, but it is a character that stars in most, if not, all Mario games. And strikers artwork is nicely drawn and creative which fits the descriptions of "FEATURED IMAGE". Oh, Lemmy Koopa Fan, nice use of the word "aerodynamic"!
7. Karinmij (talk) High quality, in my opinion almost as good as the picture from this game that has been featured last year's august.
8. Dark boo (talk) this is just plain awesome looking
9. Dark Bowser (talk) Wow..... I support....
10. Gamefreak75 (talk) Extremely detailed artwork.
11. Marioguy1 (talk) - The detail in this is nice and the action, epic!
12. Pie Shroom (talk) Per all.
13. MATEOELBACAN (talk) Per Time Q in the comments section, now I see how nice it is :F.
14. KS3 (talk) Per all.

1. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) Though it is about everything Fawful said, it's still just single-character artwork.
2. McQueenMario (talk) Per BabyLuigiOnFire.
3. Raphaelraven497 (talk) Per all.
4. Panchito Wow, you people would oppose any other single character artwork but when it's Bowser it's good?
5. LeftyGreenMario (talk) Ew. It's just single character artwork. Why was Luigi put down, but this one, a lot of people seem to support? Not a very interesting picture, IMO. Per all.
6. Papero (talk) Despite being called "epic" and "detailed," there's nothing going on in the picture, and it's hardly unique since everyone other character shares the same artwork style.
7. Garlic Man (talk) -- Great image

Comments

What's wrong with it being simple character artwork? It meets the requirements to be a FI, doesn't it? Fawfulfury65 (talk)

At the Super Mario Wiki, Featured Images are those quality, intriguing, witty, provocative, rare, important, and otherwise simply interesting images that can be found throughout the site's articles.

The ones in bold is in where the image you nominated doesn't really meet its requirements. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Well, it is simply interesting and intriguing to me. As for rare, its uncommon to see such a unique art style. I'm not sure if any of the FIs are much of witty, though. Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Eh, we have different opinions, so it's ok :) BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

@Panchito: No. It's good because it's a great drawing style, it's extremely detailed, the glow of the football looks brilliant, there's not even just white background. It simply looks good. Time Q (talk)

Actually, there is a white background, but the tan coloring also makes up the background. Still, I think it would be perfect if there were more characters. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Garlic Man, your comment in the oppose section says "Great image". KS3 (talk)

This is the second time he made that mistake. Maybe it's not a mistake. Maybe he lives in Opposite Land! LeftyGreenMario (talk)

Or maybe it's the sarcasm chasm he's in. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Luigi's Engine Room

• Subject: Luigi and friends in Mario Party.
  
• Nominated by: Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Support

1. Fawfulfury65 (talk) This image is incredibly huge, detailed, and interesting. I'm not sure why Mario would have the guts to save Wario there, but it's a pretty nice picture. Also, even if you're "sick of MP images", does it really matter? We're paying attention to the quality and creativity of the picture and all that, not what game it was from!
2. Baby Mario Bloops (talk) - Per FF65 in the comments and the fact that the MP1 groups pictures are amazing!
3. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) I don't care if it's ANOTHER Mario Party image; they're all good (except Wario's Battle Canyon and Mario's Girly Rainbow Castle)
4. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Per Fawfulfury65. I don't care what game it's from. As long as I like it!
5. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! Well I wasn't sure to post this when I posted several MP1 images but this one is good. Zero signing out.
6. Marioguy1 (talk) - I would per someone but nobody so far has put up a reason. You people spoke about how you don't like it when people put up dumb reasons? Well so far there are no reasons save for "It's Good/Nice". I think the quality is surprisingly good for an MP image where most of them have DK with a deformed face and Peach's red+pink dress is less prominent in this one.
7. LeftyGreenMario (talk) Panchito: Mario Party 1 images are awesome. This picture has great quality. It's colorful, big, and nice to look at. If you hate Mario Party images so much, try finding a much more awesome picture in the wiki.
8. Pie Shroom (talk) What the- I could have sworn I put my vote under the support section. How'd it end up in oppose? Well, per all.
9. KS3 (talk) Per all.
10. Tucayo (talk) - Remembers me the Truoble Center... RIP

1. Panchito Seriously? Quit suggesting Mario Party 1 images, we have featured numerous group images from this game already.

4. MATEOELBACAN (talk) Another MP Picture with werid characters faces...
5. lpsc00l (talk) OMG!! what is with these bad MP pictures!!! This one has to be one of the most demented yet!!!

Comments

@Panchito: Did you even read my support? We don't feature images because of the game, we feature it because it's interesting, creative, high quality, anything, but not what game it's from. If this image were for a different game, would you still oppose? Fawfulfury65 (talk)

The reason why we nominate to feature them is because they are all awesome to look at. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Panchito, your oppose is invalid. The source of the image, as long as it is official, has no criteria for becoming featured. Garlic Man (talk)

Actually, Panchito's vote is valid; no one is forced to give a reason. I, though, dislike it when people give out a stupid reason why they hate it. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

That's stupid... his vote doesn't even say WHY he doesn't like it, just that he's sick of MP images. That's the worst possible reason you can give and it's really more of a fan vote. I think I should make a proposal on that, but I have a feeling it'll just be brought down for some random reason. Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Yes, for example because no one should be forced to reason their opinion when it's really just subjective. There are no objective criteria for the quality of images, so no need to reason your opinion. Time Q (talk)

Guys, please stop opposing images just because they're Mario Party. Pie Shroom (talk)

Mario vs. Bowser

1. Garlic Man (talk) -- Great quality and size, depicting a great moment in Mario's history.
2. MATEOELBACAN (talk) One of the best SMW pics, a great moment in the Mario series and it's a lot colorful.
3. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Good quality, interesting, epic... need I say more?
4. Lu-igi board I can imagine it in motion
5. Time Q (talk): Yes, I'm biased when it comes to SMW pictures.
6. Grandy02 (talk) Great moment of a great game.
7. Papero (talk) This was back when the artwork wasn't so noticable, and I like that.
8. Tucayo (talk) - SUch great memories.....

Oppose

1. Fawfulfury65 (talk) Mario looks a little bit goofy and there really isn't that much color. Too plain for me.
2. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) The shading is awful. I mean, the Koopa Clown Car is all shady and stuff, but Bowser isn't? I don't think it's colorful either. The majority of this picture is gray and beige, which are Toadworth's favorite colors (boring). I think it's also boring overall.
3. Marioguy1 (talk) - I'm afraid I must vote oppose. While the colors are nice I think they're a little too pale and honestly, I just don't like the weird animated Bowser and Mario...
4. lpsc00l (talk) ehhhhhh.... It not my favorite.
5. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! This was already nominated and turn down in the past. Zero signing out.
6. KS3 (talk) Mario is too fat, The Mecha Koopas are too fishy, The Koopa Clown Car is too shady, The background is too gray, and Bowser is too Bowser.

Comments

Wasn't this put down one time? LeftyGreenMario (talk)

Yes it was, though that doesn't mean it can't be featured some time later. Just look at the presumable next FI. Time Q (talk)

Nice quality, but the picture is slightly faded. There is also something about this picture I don't like, but I'm not going to oppose. LeftyGreenMario (talk)

@MarioGuy1: It's a still image. They aren't animated ^^;; --Garlic Man (talk)

No, I mean that's how they look when they're animated. Mario's too fat and Bowser's just not evil enough. Marioguy1 (talk)

I guess this is based on your imagination then. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

@KS3: Bowser is too Bowser? Hmmm... that doesn't make much sense. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk)

1. Garlic Man (talk) -- Depicts the main characters of each franchise represented in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Cool-looking pic.

8. Karinmij (talk) Good quality, per above.
9. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! I was going to say SSBB is over-used but it has been a long time since any SSB stuff have been used. Zero signing out.
10. KS3 (talk) Good Pic = FI Status. Per all.
11. LeftyGreenMario (talk) This picture is great, even though I don't like Brawl too much. The resolution is great, the quality is OK, and the picture is filled up with color.
12. Supermariofan14 (talk) - Epic, and an excellent quality.
13. Tucayo (talk) - I was tempted to oppose, due to the fact that I had already seen it here, but meh.

Oppose

1. Marioguy1 (talk) - Ordinarily I wouldn't oppose because of such a minor detail but this time it stands out in my mind, this is boxart.
2. Panchito - Ugh- I've seen this image countless times.
3. Pixlfreak (talk) BOXART!!! if you want to nominate box art put up the picture of the box!!!
4. MATEOELBACAN (talk) - Per all, seriously SSBB Pics are getting overrated...
5. McQueenMario (talk) - Sorry but this has been seen by me soooooooo many times. Sorry.

Comments

NOTE: I've uploaded a higher-quality pic since the old nomination, thus I've deleted the old nomination and started a new one. --Garlic Man (talk)

Seriously, about the boxart comments. It's way better than the boxart, because the title, rating, Wii thingies, and publishing company are absent in this picture. The DK image I nominated was boxart as well, yet no one opposed because it was boxart? They are both entire scenarios, without the stuff I mentioned, and I always thought it was worthy for featuring. I understand it being overused, but just saying it's boxart seems kinda...I don't know what to say. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

I think I'm staying nuetral for this one Lu-igi board

13. Tucayo (talk) - Cool. And I think the logo makes it look better.....
14. Homestar Runner (talk)

Oppose

1. Time Q (talk): Per my and Baby Mario Bloops's comments below. We should wait for a non-logo version.
2. Baby Mario Bloops (talk) Yeah, per everything in the comments about us two. Do you want a better picture to come and regret not putting that up instead of this? We would be saving that from happening...
3. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) The logo and Cyan Yoshi (IMO) kills it. And for an image with the characters zoomed out like that, it would be even better with higher resolution.
4. Gamefreak75 (talk) This would make splendid boxart (much better than Bowser's Inside Story's boxart). Though it's very colorful, a logo-less one would be even better. Patience is a virtue, so let's wait for some without the logo, like Super Mario Galaxy's.
5. LeftyGreenMario (talk) This picture is so "bleh" (although colorful) with the logo, resolution,and the obese Cyan Yoshi, and the fat luma, and Yoshi is ugly. What's with Nintendo and fat people (Snack Basket, Yoshi, ESPECIALLY Wario, Mario, lumas, Bowser) anyway?
6. Marioguy1 (talk) - This is just pure boxart

Comments

I'm not sure if I like the logo in the image. Perhaps we should wait for a version without the logo? Time Q (talk)

All of the other FI's didn't have the logo and it, and we don't want to find out that a better picture of this with no logo on it is left to be not featured because this one took it's spot. So can we please wait for a non-logo one comes? Baby Mario Bloops (talk)

I actually like the logo on the top. Without it, the top of the picture will look too plain.
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Fawfulfury65 (talk).

Why is Daisy's hair sticking out of the UFO in the top left corner??? I never knew that Daisy is going to be in Super Mario Galaxy 2. KS3 (talk)

I don't see her hair anywhere. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

BMB and TimeQ: People are then gonna start complaining how "overused" this image is and how you should put up the picture of the box (I'm pretty sure it's gonna be boxart). BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

BLOF: "Overused?" When did we ever state that? All I was saying is that I think it would be better without the logo on it, since we don't have any other FI with it and that there is still time for a better version to come out in the next few weeks or so... Baby Mario Bloops (talk)

I didn't say that you guys said will be "overused." When it gets released as boxart or something, other people will come in and say how "overused" and "boxarty" it is. I'm assuming, only, so don't take it too heavily. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

LOL, yeah, probably. Time Q (talk)

You know, I'm getting pretty sick of everyone complaining about "this is boxart," or "the logo is bad," or anything else, but even when the image deserves to be nominated. Look at it. Perfect quality and resolution. In fact, I can still see the Luma Shop at this size. It's beautifully contrast with its elegant, cheerful, happy colors. Featured Images are supposed to be judged by their creativity, NOT by the additional blemishes that were added. I think this would look pretty weird without the logo there. Almost every single nomination in the oppose section has something that is in any other opposed nomination, and I'm tired of it. When the image is constantly being re-nominated, that means it has a chance. Also, the logo is probably there for the few millions of people who don't know what this game is identify what it is exactly. MechaWave (talk)

I think we should just wait until a picture without the title comes long. And if people want to know what game that came from, I suggest that the nominator should mention it in the subject of the image. Wouldn't that be just sad once a better version comes out and this one is already featured? LeftyGreenMario (talk)

Marioguy1: Pure boxart? I don't think so. If you think something will be boxart in an upcoming game, that's no reason to oppose. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk)

Comments

*rolls eyes* About how many pictures nominated are there now that has Luigi getting beaten up, looking stupid, or the like? There's that avalanche one, Luigi's mansion, the Mario Party beach image, Sweet Basket, the Melee picture (IMO), and now this one. I think Nintendo maybe just likes seeing Luigi having all the bad luck. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

What "Melee picture"? Also, the reason why Luigi is like that in all the pictures is because that's the sort of character Luigi is. Cowardly, weak, etc. Even in the Mario Kart Wii intro, he's seen getting hit by a blue shell right as he gains first place. He isn't what you would really call "Glorified". Garlic Man (talk)

I had wanted to nominate this picture, but I had a feeling it would be put down because of "a lack of background" and some variation of "luigi has bad luck." (And BiscuitLagoonOnFire, Luigi didn't look stupid in the Melee group art. He just looked like a wacko. But not stupid.) LeftyGreenMario (talk)

^That's just IMO, genius. GM: I don't think Luigi's that weak. Even if he was weak and cowardly, I really don't think he deserves it. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Is this going to turn into a war just like Avalanche!? LeftyGreenMario (talk)

No. Avalanche! only has one vote. KS3 (talk)

Very funny. Stop replying to old comments already when referring to a situation that didn't even exist when the comment was made. Time Q (talk)

Yeah right, that was a few hours ago when I nominated the Avalanche one again as a new fresh start, but everyone is voting oppose. If people actually come to the support side, it might come as a war again. KS3 (talk)

2. MATEOELBACAN (talk) - The background doesn't matter, the important thing is the detail of the image...thing that this one has.
3. KS3 (talk) This is a perfect image except I don't like how Mario is with Luigi. But It is still a perfect image.
4. Lu-igi board sum good action
5. Papero (talk) GREAT quality, depicting a good scene in MK:DD
6. Karinmij (talk) Great picture, with lots of action. I'm glad the background is white actually, because otherwise it might have gotten too crowded.

Oppose

1. Fawfulfury65 (talk) Ugly.
2. Pixlfreak (talk) i can't even make out what's going on
3. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) Luigi looks like he is made out of plastic, and it looks like they are battling each other in a white substance, since I see no shadow.
4. Homestar Runner (talk) Ugly and boring.

I like this picture, but the picture is slightly blurry. This picture would be perfect only if it had a background. LeftyGreenMario (talk)

Yeah. Per LeftyGreenMario. I'm staying neutral. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) P.S. sorry for not signing earlier.

1. GalacticPetey (talk) AWESOME!
2. Karinmij (talk) I'll still support it for the same reasons as last week. But I don't see the use of nominating this picture again immediately after being turned down because I expect most people to just vote the same as before..
3. MATEOELBACAN (talk) - I like the image, but it could be better in white :/... Per Karinmij.

Oppose

1. Time Q (talk): It hasn't improved since it was removed a few hours ago...
2. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Per Time Q. I don't like this anymore.
3. Fawfulfury65 (talk) It gets boring after a while.
4. KS3 (talk) This was just removed 4 hours and 45 minutes ago.
5. Gamefreak75 (talk) >_> Black background looks weird. Per all.

1. KS3 (talk) Nice picture, good resolution, good quality, etc. And lol luigi is trapped in a snowball. The only reason I voted oppose is because I wanted this picture to start fresh and new again.

Oppose

1. MATEOELBACAN (talk) - ...This again <.<?, I need to say more?, Let's get rid of it.
2. Fawfulfury65 (talk) I'm really sick of this image.

5. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Per all.
6. Karinmij (talk) No, per the same reasons as a few weeks ago..

Kind of a stupid reason to oppose it. Everyone's gonna vote against it because it got boring fast. If you supported this pick ther first time, it would'e won...-_-' Gamefreak75 (talk)

The votes were like 14-14 tied and like that for a long time. KS3 (talk)

It was actually 14-15 and two of the oppositions were yours and Time Q's saying to get rid of it.Gamefreak75 (talk)

That was Time Q's opinion. --Garlic Man (talk)

Well, I'm telling KS3 if he supported, it would've won, but he decided to oppose to give it a fresh start....I'm still trying to find the motive for this...Gamefreak75 (talk)

It wouldn't. There are many more images that have votes like 11-6 and 14-7. KS3 (talk)

Garlic Man, Your vote on the oppose in the Bowser Striker section says Great Image. KS3 (talk)

Like I said, it was 14-15, with 15 opposes. If you removed your vote, it would be 14-14; a tie. If you then supported, it would be 15-14 with 15 supporters vs. 14 opposers. According to the theory of numb3rz, 15>14, which means the pic would've won. And what does the 11-6 and 14-7 have to do with this... Gamefreak75 (talk)

If you read it, it says The Picture with the most Support vote difference wins. Tell me if I am wrong, but that's what I read. The numbers 14-7 stands for the Bowser Striker image nomination and the 11-6 (now 13-5) stands for the SSBB Boxart image nomination. KS3 (talk)

Well, you got me on that one, but refeaturing a picture that failed seems pretty pointless because everyone will be tired of it, IMO. Gamefreak75 (talk)

But we are supposed to vote on it's quality. KS3 (talk)

Good quality is only one things that we should look for. In the pic, there is no background, and the snowball Luigi is in kinda blends into it. Mario looks really fat in this image too, and has stubby legs. Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Yeah but Mario still looks skinnier then the Mario in the SMW picture above with the Mecha Koopas. And there is still snow (look near Mario's feet), and who cares if it is a white background. It would still be a white background if there is like a mountain behind them. Luigi is in the snowball, not blended with the snowball. KS3 (talk)

2. Time Q (talk): Wow. Awesome quality. I support despite the fact that all the characters are on the right side of the picture.
3. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Per Raphaelraven497.
4. Fawfulfury65 (talk) I was thinking of nominating this, but I actually thought that other people wouldn't like it. But whatever, its a nice pic.
5. MATEOELBACAN (talk) - I'll support this time, is a lot better than the N64 one :/...also per Time Q
6. Lu-igi board yay

Oppose

1. Garlic Man (talk) -- Hard to tell what's going on. All the colors seem to blend into each other and difficult to distinguish outlines.
2. KS3 (talk) What are those green creatures??? Whatever they are, they are weird and ugly.

@KS3: YOu dont know what the green things are? then you clearly have never played a game that stars Donkey Kong before. They are Kremlings, the main enimies of Donkey Kong. Raphaelraven497 (talk)
