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.

This page follows the No-Signature Policy.

Krem Quay

• Nominated by: Fawfulfury65 (talk)

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
11. Raphaelraven497 (talk) I change my vote. It's a good pic. BUt why is Diddu wearing a fur sweater?
12. Nintendude (talk) Great image, very good use of backdrop and I am a fan of donkey kong.
13. Homestar Runner (talk) Per all.

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. 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.
5. Mariofanatic64 (talk) I felt a sudden urge to vomit
6. Commander Code-8 (talk) Not good quality... That's just one in the list
7. Beecanoe (talk) I could nominate a picture of my poop and I bet it would do better! It looks so strange.
8. Wissinkman555 (talk) Diddy is to fat.
9. SuperHamster (talk) It's a bit too faded. I also don't like the general color composition; the green hue around Dixie Kong's face is bad, and the right seems more saturated in color than the left. In addition, the two seem to be standing in or close to water, though there seems to be no reaction from 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)

This may be my first comment, but the image I checked actually came from press.nintendo.com. The actual piece of it. I don't know how this affects your guys' opinions, but I just said it -- like a messenger. Who uploads images. When opportunities open up. :p RAP (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
11. Beecanoe (talk) This image shows the whole playable cast of Mario Party in one of the party boards. Good image!
12. Commander Code-8 (talk) I've realised it is only pixelated in this size. On the Main Page it'll be better.

Oppose

1. Panchito Seriously? Quit suggesting Mario Party 1 images, we have featured numerous group images from this game already.
2. Lu-igi board I'm afraid these mp pics are getting worse....
3. Raphaelraven497 per Lu-igi Board
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!!!
6. FireBabyLuigi11 (talk) I just don't think this would be a good FI.

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

• Subject: Mario fighting Bowser and Mecha-Koopas in Super Mario World.
  
• Nominated by: Garlic Man (talk)

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.....
9. Beecanoe (talk) Image from a good game of an epic battle. One of the best!
10. nintendude (talk) I am both a huge fan of both super mario world and hand drawn mario artwork. I think this would mke a great featured image.
11. Mariofanatic64 (talk) Great, colorful image. Definitely FI material.

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. Bowser isn't shaded when the Koopa Clown Car is?? per the ninth tenth comment.
7. Commander Code-8 (talk) I change my vote. I realise I don't like drawn images.
8. FireBabyLuigi11 (talk) It looks terrible. Bowser should be as shady as the Koopa Clown Car and Mario looks fat and it doesn't look very good.
9. Raphaelraven497 (talk) Bye bye!
10. Damariogamr (talk) The Clown Car gets shaded but not Bowser?!! What the heck?!!
11. Homestar Runner (talk) Meh, not the best.
12. LeftyGreenMario (talk) The first color I see is gray, and gray is not a very exciting color.

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)

@Raphaelraven497: What do you mean by "Bye bye!"?
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk).

Probably that the image will be gone by Thursday if no support votes come in until then. Time Q (talk)

Actually, if there's no more support or opposes by Thursday, it would still stay since it's a tie. --Marcelagus (talk)

Yeah, because a support vote did come in after I made that comment... Time Q (talk)

Can someone please find a way to shade Bowser??? KS3 (talk)

What do you mean, find a way to shade Bowser? We can't just alter official artwork to make it look "better" as an FI, if you mean that.--Vellidragon (talk)

2. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) Super detailed (look at the fur, you can see every little bit of it), plus awesome resolution. It also came from my favorite Donkey Kong game (it's the only one too, so it's my least favorite as well), Donkey Kong 64, which makes this picture more awesome.

6. LeftyGreenMario (talk) Great resolution and detail. The picture is also filled up with color. I say this is FI worthy.

1. Fawfulfury65 (talk) Its just too... plain.
2. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) I would like this picture if (1) there was a scenery, (2) it is a JPG file instead of a PNG so you can have more resolution, and (3) if Luigi didn't look crazy and get blinded by super glue from that Blooper.
3. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) White background... and I think Mario, not Luigi, looks weird in this.

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)

Says the user, named 'BabyLuigiOnFire'! Waluigi Guy (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)

3. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) I think the image focuses waayy too much on that Kremling and though detail is nice, I think it's WAAYY too detailed. Besides, why the heck are Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong smiling? Do they want to be the new Toad or something?

I think he's talking about the big one in the center, which really does quite disturbing. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Oh I see. But he's not bleeding, its just the texture on his skin. Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Ugh, another title mishap. It's called Diddy's Kong Quest. Not Diddy Kong's Quest. Three people I know (including me) already made that mistake. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

12. Tucayo (talk) - Cool :3
13. Dimentiorox100 (talk) This is awesomer then dimentio... WAIT DID I SAY THAT OUT LOUD?!?
14. Homestar Runner (talk) This is awesome.

Oppose

1. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) I don't like the white outlines on the characters. Plus, there's still only two characters. Plus, it comes from an almost-atrocious game (and I don't think that glow looks very realistic either. Halos are supposed to come from the sun hitting cirrus clouds to produce that effect, but you can't compare Mario to the real-world, so it doesn't matter)
2. LeftyGreenMario (talk) What the heck is this?? Mario looks tired and that butt-faced Yoshi looks even stupider! The white outlines and low is even lamer and the lack of a background really destroys this thing. (Next time, Mario should just use Kirby. Kirby can light up the WHOLE room. And IMO, Super Mario Galaxy 2 and everything about it, especially Yoshi, was a huge mistake).
3. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Per all. And I'm not really using this as a reason to oppose, but I hate Yoshi too!
4. Gamefreak75 (talk) Black background < White Background. Per all.
5. MATEOELBACAN (talk) - Single Character Artwork.
6. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! Even though I could support, the point is that the game is coming in two months, wait until it's close to the release date. Zero signing out.

@KS3: OMG! I LOVE PIE!!! xD!!!! Fawfulfury65 (talk)

You know that there is another proposal to revive the pie button??? KS3 (talk)

It's gone, unfortunately, before I had time to log in this wiki! Ugh. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

MATOELBACAN: It's technically not single character artwork, but Yoshi is just.....I can't seem to put it into words. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

@Zero: Why should I wait until the release date is close? Fawfulfury65 (talk)

@Gamefreak: I actually prefer a black background, but that's just my opinion. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk)

Abotu the background, imagine, representing Light Yoshi in a white background?? --Tucayo (talk) 16:59, 22 April 2010 (EDT)

Well, I agree with you Tucay, it'd look weird, but the other Galaxy pics look odd with the black background in my opinion. Gamefreak75 (talk)

Behold the quality.

I found a version with a white background (Well, I didn't find it, another member did). Homestar Runner (talk)

Homestar Runner, that image won't work, since it's not on any main articles, and its quality is lower than that of the artwork with the black background. M&SG (talk)

It looks better with a black background. Per M&SG. KS3 (talk)

Ugh, I'm sorry, but it looks even more worser (intended grammar error) than the original. The lesser of the evils is the black image, since the "darkness" gives it awesome light. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Blargg Concept Art from Super Mario World

1. Turkishcoffee (talk) I saw this image on the article and actually stopped to admire it.

Oppose

1. KS3 (talk) This was featured and put down like less than a month ago or somethign. Besides, Mario looks fat and the bat thingamabobbers look weird.
2. Damariogamr (talk) This looks nothing like SMW in-game. There are too many swoopers, and the blargg looks really weird.
3. Commander Code-8 (talk) Last time I opposed. There should be no difference now.
4. MATEOELBACAN (talk)} - I like this image, but it's low quality.
5. Lu-igi board funny but terrible

I just want to say that when I put this up I didn't know it had been rejected less than a month ago. Sorry. ^.^; Turkishcoffee (talk)

1. Mr bones (talk) I know this is a japanese boxart, but this pic is good quality and it's great!
2. Commander Code-8 (talk) Anything wrong with this? No

Oppose

1. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Logo looks bad. 'Nuff said.
2. Baby Mario Bloops (talk) - I know a certain someone that already knows that I will oppose this. Logo is terrible, very detailed in the middle, but then it is lame surrounding the center. You literally have to look very closely to see the characters, and they are just too compacted. I could go on, but I rather give just the basics.
3. LeftyGreenMario (talk) The picture would have been great if it weren't for those ugly Japanese characters.
4. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) It's way too crowded. It's like the characters assembled some sort of planet or something. Plus, the Japanese characters are too Japanese.
5. KS3 (talk) changed my mind. The Logo looks bad and the pic itself makes me dizzy. The Mario Party 6 one looks so much better and it still got put down.
6. MATEOELBACAN (talk) - I just think that a picture with a japanese logo in the main page of an english wiki would look werid.
7. Lu-igi board terrible

1. LeftyGreenMario (talk) 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.
2. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) Dunno what to say. I'll support anyhow.
3. KS3 (talk) Great pic with great resolution and great quality.
4. MATEOELBACAN (talk) - Colorful, Why Not :P?
5. Lu-igi board lol at Wario
6. Gamefreak75 (talk) YES! Now that's an image. I actually think the waves give it a unique look. Per all.
7. Commander Code-8 (talk) I'm glad the thing Wario is shaking repeatidly looks better than Mario's legs in the saw picture.

Oppose

1. Turkishcoffee (talk) 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.

I like this a lot, but the watermark is kind of distracting. Turkishcoffee (talk)

I'm sorry, water mark?Where?Mr bones (talk)

I see, I uploaded another one which is from the original game without the ING sign, if that's what you're reffering to.Mr bones (talk)

That is what I meant but now the compression (or resizing?) has left parts of it looking... off. Namely around Bleck. Turkishcoffee (talk)

Okay, this is the one I put the first time, is there any problems?Mr bones (talk)

You can find the original PNG version without a watermark here. Probably the best one in terms of the beta image. --Grandy02 (talk)

It is a great image!I placed it above.So vote on it!Also, Grandy?Can you delete these: Image:Wedding.jpg and Image:Wedding3.jpg?Mr bones (talk)

Done. --Grandy02 (talk)

@Zero777 Low quality?No it's not.Mr bones (talk)

@KS3 it is a very important event in Super Paper Mario.Mr bones (talk)

@LeftyGreenMario You are right, and you can't eat a mushroom and get bigger, Goombas do not exist, can you really go to a dream world?You see, nothing is Real in the Marioverse.And the point here is ot Bowser marrying Peach, it's the birth of the chaos heart.Evil+Kindess=Chaos Heart.Mr bones (talk)

Mr bones, don't take that comment literally! You know I was just joking around. LeftyGreenMario (talk)
