This page is much better now that I'be gotten rid of my BVB-ness.

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.

Nominated by: BluePikminKong497 (talk)
Subject: Green Shell

Support

1. BluePikminKong497 (talk) Wow! Look at that quality! It's big, and an awesome scene overall.
2. Dark Bowser (talk) Was about to put this one up... Anyways, Per BPK497...
3. Bowser's luma (talk) Love it - he's coming right out at us!
4. Pixlfreak (talk) this was my favorite scene EVER from Partners in Time
5. Lu-igi board (talk) love it
6. Superboo922 (talk)Per BPK497. This is awesome and has a perfect mixture of action and quality. But when you think of it LGM and MT sort of have a point.
7. Baby Mario Bloops (talk) - Okay, my vote was partly based off of Baby Mario in the picture, but it is very detailed and epic that has the right to be a FI.
8. Platitudinous (talk) This looks funful!
9. GalacticPetey (talk) Not bad, not bad at all

Oppose

1. LeftyGreenMario (talk) This picture is kind of meh compared to the other Mal pits. I know it's great quality and all, but...
2. MagicalToadette (talk) It looks rather strange to me. I mean look at luigi's foot.
3. Propeller Toad (talk) I'm not saying that it is a bad pic but the background being all scratched up like that makes the overall pic (excluding the characters) to look rather odd.
4. Pichufan93 (talk) Looks rather choppy in my opinion and it doesn't seem to hold on its own.
5. Skitty02 (talk) Per MT.
6. Commander Code-8 (talk) Per LeftyGreenMario. It isn't that great.
7. DaisyRox02 (talk) It's a good picture but Baby Luigi and Luigi in the background are blurred and the erasing on the sides is distracting. Plus, there's a blank background.

Comments

You know what? This image should be on a 3DS. O.O BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

That would be so awesome BLOF. This is really one of the first images I supported. Superboo922 (talk)

Why does Baby Mario have a HAMMER while on that shell? That doesn't make any sense. Booderdash (talk)

Yah, I agree with that. He NEVER carried that hammer while on a shell in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Crime. Maybe there's an enemy out there he REALLY doesn't like. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Lol Blof. Partners in crime? Superboo922 (talk)

Let's just hope Baby Mario doesn't slip! Sgt.Boo (talk)

Its probably beta. I remember a beta attack thats a Spiny Shell that the babies used that needed hammers... Booderdash (talk)

Dinomighty Battle

File:Dinomightyfightart.jpg

Nominated by: Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk)
Subject: Dinomighty fight from Wario World.

Support

1. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) This image has really good quality, isn't boring and not to mention, it's from a quite unfamous game. Just saying.
2. Lu-igi board (talk) I can see the action :P
3. Fawfulfury65 (talk) Wario about to be killed by some giant, green monster. Just what I wanted!
4. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) It's a unique image with good enough quality to feature on the main page! Also, per Fawfulfury65. Hope the monster doesn't eat him, though...
5. LeftyGreenMario (talk) Good luck Wario, you'll need it.
6. Frostyfireyoshi (talk) That's a very good image. I like bright arena with the dark sky. Really dramatic, isn't it? Dinomighty's tongue looks somewhat familiar...NEWSFLASH! Wario brutally eaten by giant Yoshi mutant! Man, this image is so funny!
7. Bowser's luma (talk) NEWSFLASH: World hunger over, big Yoshi eradicates Wario. Per all.
8. Mario jc (talk) Big image, with great quality. I support!
9. Booderdash (talk) I don't think Warios about to get crushed, but I think this will be an AWESOME BATTLE!! Which Wario will win in as always>:)
10. Platitudinous (talk) "Wario's tunnel of-a doom. Very scary."
11. Grandy02 (talk) Wario's enemies can even look more grotesque than him. ;)
12. Papero (talk) I wasn't even aware of WW Artwork existing. It's a standoff against a giant boss, that's enough to get my attention.

Oppose

1. Superboo922 (talk) It does have good quality but you can't get a good veiw of the action and I couldn't even tell that the image was focused on Dinomighty. At first look I couldn't even tell who that was in the foreground (too dark) and Wario is just posing looking like he's not going to do anything while he is being attacked. It's not a good camera angle (although I'm not sure there is one considering the lighting) and just oppose. This image should not be featured.
2. Pixlfreak (talk) it's too dark. can't see what's going on
3. Zafum (talk) - Aside from the reasons that Superboo gave, the picture is just really boring. There's nothing interesting about anything in it.
4. Propeller Toad (talk) It's a nice picture and it is certainly exciting, however the picture is a tad too dark in my opinion. Aside from Wario and perhaps Dinomighty, everything else seems to be covered with darkness.
5. Pichufan93 (talk) Per Pixlfreak and the background pillars seem rather off in my opinion.
6. Skitty02 (talk) Yuck, only Wario again! The pic is too dark as well!
7. Commander Code-8 (talk) This is a dark image, And it looks more like a sreenshot than artwork.
8. BluePikminKong497 (talk) Per all, too dark, also there is nothing wrong with Wario.
9. Homestar Runner (talk) Per all.
10. Its-a-me Yoshi! (talk) Per Commander Code-8.
11. Mariofanatic64 (talk) Having a screen of a Wario game seems too 'un-mario' for a mario wiki.
12. DaisyRox02 (talk) Is this picture a 64 game? It amuses me that Wario pretty much wants to get his butt kicked. Plus, he's so far in the background he's blurred and yes, it is too dark.
13. GalacticPetey (talk) per Superboo

Comments

Lol Fawfulfury. Come on, some people like Wario. But then again I don't like Wario... But when you... You just... *sigh* Whatever, I lost my point. Forget this. Anybody out there a Wario fan? If so comment. Superboo922 (talk)

Whoa, that's unbelievable that some people actually LIKE Wario. O_O No offense, though. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

SuperBoo: Wario looks like he's telling the monster to bring it on. (In other words, he's asking to die.) LeftyGreenMario (talk)

Pixlfreak and Propeller Toad: Too dark? I can see everything perfectly. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk)

No seriously. Who likes Wario? Good point LGM. But I thought I told you to forget that. Superboo (talk)

The giant Yoshi mutant is going to die after eating Wario. Wario is disease wrapped in fat! LeftyGreenMario (talk)

For those who asked for it, I like Wario. The main reason for this is he's my fourth best character on Brawl. Commander Code-8 (talk)

@Mariofanatic64: By the same logic, there shouldn't be featured Wario game articles on the main page. But as everything Wario is covered by the Wiki, I don't think that makes sense. --Grandy02 (talk)

Per LGM. Wario never learns to shut his trap. I mean, who would't agree? this is Wario, >:O. But my little brother likes him a bit because of Mario Strickers Charged. DaisyRox02 (talk)

I like Wario alot, due to him pulling through for me a million times during Mario Power Tennis. Also, I'm awesome at him in Supe Smash Bros. Brawl Booderdash (talk)

you know what, screw it. Wario is the best Mario character ever made. EVER MADE! how can you not love him? compare him for example to Daisy. Wario = funny, imaginative and awesome. Daisy = annoying, a rip off and the worst creaature ever to be created. The same goes for waluigi, Rosalina and toadette. so how can anyone with half a brain-cell mock Wario when these disgaceful characters I've mentioned live? Oh and Wario pwns in Brawl. Lu-igi board

Thousand-Year Picture

Nominated by: LeftyGreenMario (talk)
Subject: Title Screen artwork from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

Support

1. LeftyGreenMario (talk) Exceptional quality picture!
2. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) It's better than the other nominations and it looks right on the main page. Besides, I uploaded it, AND I was about to nominate it.
3. Fawfulfury65 (talk) The sky is pretty.
4. Its-a-me Yoshi! (talk) It looks so... epic.
5. Dry dry bones (talk) best paper mario pic yet!
6. Commander Code-8 (talk) Great.
7. Lu-igi board (talk) stunning.
8. Homestar Runner (talk) Per all.
9. Superboo922 (talk) Amazing quality. Per all.
10. DaisyRox02 (talk) It's so cute and the background is so pretty!
11. MrConcreteDonkey (talk) A colourful picture that has great quality.

Oppose

1. Propeller Toad (talk) It's a nice image but the characters seem to be rather small. The background seems too big for the characters (ie the sky).
2. Pichufan93 (talk) The shading seems to be off and per Propeller Toad. Also that one odd section of some characters having a brighter light upon them seems odd (check from peach to the right to some characters).
3. Skitty02 (talk) No offence but we already had two paper mario artworks similar to this one already featured (SPM and PM)..
4. Booderdash (talk) This is stupid, its EXACTLY the main title screen except photoshopped into some kind of weird blue sky. The main title screen is better looking. The characters are much too small.
5. BluePikminKong497 (talk) Ugly, and hard to see.
6. Baby Mario Bloops (talk) - The quality of the characters are great, but it is too unbalance with the sky. I think it would be better with the title than without it.
7. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! Per BMB. Zero signing out.
8. Pixlfreak (talk) even though I love paper mario as much as I do, this thing needs a title. the sky's becoming to much of an issue, and it looked better with the title in the first place
9. GalacticPetey (talk) per all

Comments

Propeller Toad: Well, this image originally came from the title screen, so that's where the title was supposed to go. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Ah I see! The title would definately complete the pic though I still don't completely support it with the big blotch in the sky (no title) though it is still a rather colourful and nice piece of art. Propeller Toad (talk)

This isn't photoshopped; it is ripped. LeftyGreenMario (talk)

However, when this image has a title, people are going to complain and say that the title looks ugly! points to Mario Party 6 artwork. LeftyGreenMario (talk)

I complained about the Mario Party 6 artwork because it didn't need a title. It had characters in a good spot. Also, the title covered much of the characters that it blocked a lot of the interesting stuff. The title with be above the main stuff, filling in the sky that has nothing in it. Baby Mario Bloops (talk)

I like the sky. It's pretty. 0.0 BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

Its pretty much the main thing about the picture. Booderdash (talk)

1. Fawfulfury65 (talk) High quality, reasonable size, nice. We need more FI nominees.
2. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) I personally like it...

Oppose

1. DaisyRox02 (talk) Hasn't someone already nominated this picture? I believe I opposed it last time and I will again. I don't like it.
2. Superboo922 (talk) Too cluttered and the beautiful scenery in the backround is blurred.
3. LeftyGreenMario (talk) It's still quite small for artwork.
4. Commander Code-8 (talk) Definetly too crowded.
5. Lu-igi board (talk) boring....
6. Its-a-me Yoshi! (talk) Per Commander Code-8.
7. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! This has already been nominated in the past. Zero signing out.
8. Booderdash (talk) Whats with the fatties next to Dk?
9. GalacticPetey (talk) Not this trash again!
10. Supershroom (talk) It's seems too... odd to me. I suppose I just don't like it's graphics.

Comments

It lookes like they're all about to fall off the tree stump. DaisyRox02 (talk)

Booderdash: They are all clones of Wario dressed up near Donkey Kong. You know that Donkey Kong is friends with Wario. Both are fat. Hence, the fatties. LeftyGreenMario (talk)

I never knew Donkey Kong was friends with Wario.0_0 He must be the female one to Dks right. The one on hs left has that retarded cheek, so he looks more like some dumb guy. Booderdash (talk)

They are all Wario clones dressed up in costumes. Except for Donkey Kong. LeftyGreenMario (talk)

'Cept on the one on Dks left cuz hes WAY too fat. Booderdash (talk)

Mario meets Rosalina

File:Princessrosettamag.jpg

• Subject: Mario meets Rosalina in Super Mario Galaxy.
• Nominated by: Coincollector (talk)

Support

1. Coincollector (talk) - Ok, I want to feature this because it has an HD quality (the screenshot was taken from the Dolphin emulator so you can see the smoothness around the models - unlike that ugly pale noise seen in a wii screenshot) looking almost like artwork.
2. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! Even though it's a little jagged, it's a nice, big image. Zero signing out.
3. DaisyRox02 (talk) The light in the background makes Rosalina look like a goddess. Lovely picture.
4. Papero (talk) It's a depiction of a rather important scene, with quality to the point of looking like official artwork. It would be hard trying to find another game screenshot of this quality.
5. Fawfulfury65 (talk)
6. Pixlfreak (talk) I can't so no. Rosalina is just too awesome
7. Supershroom (talk) Great quality, but is it possible to crop it to get rid of the black bars?

Oppose

1. Mariofanatic64 (talk) I would support if it weren't for those black lines on the top and bottom. it's too distracting and makes you feel like something's been cut out of the image.
2. LeftyGreenMario (talk) Even though it's high quality and big, it's a boring screenshot with ugly black bars.
3. Commander Code-8 (talk) The bars ruin it.
4. Lu-igi board (talk) horrible, terrible no-thrills image.
5. Booderdash (talk) Its a screenshot! Plus Rosalinas story is boring and unnesscarily sad.
6. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) Black bars say hi
7. GalacticPetey (talk) sadly, those black bars ruin it.

Comments

Sorry for removing my support but I changed my mind Superboo922 (talk)

Rosalina's story isn't boring! It's interesting! I just don't get how her mom died.DaisyRox02 (talk)

Read Igns review. Plus thats your opinion and I accept that. But I think its boring.;) Booderdash (talk)

So what it her story is boring? How does that make the image bad? This image doesn't even do anything with her story. Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Just wanted to say that. Its bad because its a screenshot with black bars. Plus I don't like Rosaina:p Booderdash (talk)

1. Booderdash (talk)Low quality Mario looks like hes 10 years old! Plus, it looks like both of them are dolls.
2. LeftyGreenMario (talk) Mario looks coo-coo.
3. Superboo922 (talk) Is it just me, or did Bowser get a haircut? Good quality but it... Wow. Everybody already said everything.
4. GalacticPetey (talk) I would rather have 14 game overs than have this featured.

Comments

Why is Mario putting his hands in his pants? Booderdash (talk)

Because his overalls burn, and it's hot? Also, about "dolls", the image simply shows what 3D models in the Mario series looked like back then. --Grandy02 (talk)

I don't know how this isn't high quality. And how does Mario look 10? I don't know of any 10 year olds with mustaches. Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Ok, how is this low quality? I really want to know why. Just because they look like dulls doesn't mean its low quality, that's just how it's drawn. Fawfulfury65 (talk)

Well, if you look close up, you can see some of the pixels. At least I can see it. And remove the mustache and he looks ten. The angle of his lower left mouth isn't with the rest of his face. My 12 year old friend can draw better than that. Off topic, but I had a little mustache when I was 10. Booderdash (talk)

You can see some of the pixels in just about any image if you look really close to it. So that doesn't really call this image low quality. Fawfulfury65 (talk)

The image is made up of pixels, so of course one can see them. And you could remove Mario's moustache from any artwork to make him look "younger." --Grandy02 (talk)

Sorry for asking, but what game is this? And Booderdash has a good point. Superboo922 (talk)

Super Mario 64, of course. --Grandy02 (talk)
