MarioWiki:Featured images

__NEWSECTIONLINK__

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 a week, 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.

This page follows the No-Signature Policy.

Mario Party DS Group Picture

 * Subject: Mario Party DS Characters Avoiding Bowser
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) - Looks nice
 * 2) - Lovely and colourful. You can see just how petrified Mario is of Bowser!
 * 3) - Fun pic. Nice choice, Castle Toad!
 * 4) You're awesome. And so is this pic.
 * 5) Cheerful action. It MUST be featured.
 * 6) No doubt it should be featured. Yoshi is very funny also.
 * 7) it is a prefect way to through the elements of a game together, havent seen better work in some time now
 * 8) haha! Look at Luigi!! he's scared out of his wits!!
 * 9) This is a good Mario character picture.It would look good even if it wasn't a Mario Party picture!-
 * 10) Although it is the MPDS boxart, I think it's a good picture. It's a bit busy though.
 * 11) Yoshi! Its a cool picture, but people dislike the crowdedness.
 * 12) I am Zero! Yes, I can really see this in the main page, with a comment saying "An artwork of Mario Party DS showing a few of the characters in the game", or something like that. Zero signing out.
 * 13) Per Pixlfreak. He is scared out of his wits! LOL!
 * 14) DaisyRox02 I like it! It shows the playable characters in one picture and is very detailed!
 * 15) I'll Support,and it makes me want to play this game.
 * 16) Very detailed picture, with all the characters! Very nice image.
 * 17) the game isfun
 * 18) Lets just feature this already!
 * 1) the game isfun
 * 2) Lets just feature this already!

Oppose

 * 1) - It's far too crowded, and the wall in back looks stupid. By the way, saying you don't know why you dislike this picture is no different than saying "looks nice!".
 * 2) I agree!
 * 3) me too 13:33, 17 May 2009 (EDT)
 * me, uh...3?
 * 1) It's Mario Party DS's boxart without the title or DS info. 2nd of all, IN MY OPINION, it's kinda boring.
 * 2) Although the image appeals to me, I think we should not feature box art, at least do box art of a classic, or of an older game (perhaps in the future, when Mario Party DS is as old as, let's say, Super Mario 64}.
 * 3) Daisy is almost nonexistant in the image.
 * 4) I agree with Super Mario Bros.  It's a good picture, but it's box art.  Also, I didn't even notice Daisy until now.

Comments
Since i found this Scene so Music-themed i had to Nominate it, Hope you like it

I believe that if Zafum doesnt know why he dislikes the picture, his vote should be erased That's stupid
 * No, because you're not even forced to add a reason. You can just vote without putting any reason, and just as well you can say that you don't know why you dislike a picture.
 * Look, i'm not expecting that the images i nominate win, to be honest, i don't care, but seriously, i see just stupid things like "i dunno why i just don't like it", but whatever...
 * I think Tucayo's vote should be erased, because he doesn't know why he likes his picture, he just says looks nice. LOL, you don't need a reason to vote, you just need to know if you like the picture or not. Don't go blaming me just because I didn't have a reason this time.

Excuse Mr Oppose-it-all, but saying looks nice is way different than dont knowing why you dont like it. Looks nice means i LIKE the picture because its NICE. And how can you dislike a picture for reasons you dont even know
 * Both of you calm down please, okay? Nobody is forced to add any reason when voting to support or oppose an image. If you like a picture, feel free to support it; if you don't like it, feel free to oppose it. In neither case you have to give reasons for your vote. No need to get upset about this.
 * I think we should include a notice saying that you don't have to put a reason for the vote (or a good reason at that, anyway), to avoid confusion in the future.

Comments
Nah Lu-igi Board, just though it has great lighing, like the rainbow Mario's colour-

Phoenix Rider, FIs arn't just about scenarios y'know, I chose this because of its lighting, its six supporters probably thought the same
 * Regardless of the reason you chose it, it still stands that it's a stock image that can be found anywhere. These FIs should have something different about them to make them stand out. 15:30, 19 June 2009 (EDT)
 * There's actually 12 supporters :)
 * There's actually 14 supporters :)
 * There was 6 when I wrote that :)
 * I understand :)

Hey babydk, why did you delete Zafum's vote?
 * He had a grudge against the said user

 * 4) Per SMB.

 * 6) Like Lu-igi board said, box art shouldn't be featured.

Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games


Subject: Promotional artwork from Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games. Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) Same as my Super Mario Sluggers comment above.
 * 2) - Great
 * 3) Awesome! Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games has been a good series so far!-
 * 4) It seems so real, that's what makes it so amazing. I give it three thumbs up.
 * 5) It's a good action shot and it stands out. Mario's in a weird pose though...
 * 6) Indeed a weird pose, but funny
 * 7) Yoshi! Its such a cool shot.
 * 8) I am Zero! Good idea to put this one up with a comment like "Mario and Sonic in there latest appearance, going down hill for the goal". Zero signing out.
 * 9) Great picture.  I actually like the sun!

Oppose

 * 1) sunlight in the corner ruins the picture
 * 2) This picture is not only boring, but has an extremely low quality.
 * 3) If only it was in better quality.
 * The pic itself looks good, but yeah, low resolution.
 * 1) Per Low resolution opposers
 * 2) Sun is in the way, picture looks too old, game is too not out yet to have a featured pic, wait until a week after it comes out.
 * 3) You know what, I'm sorry I keep changing my mind, but per all of the above.
 * 4) Per all.

Comments
Shouldn't the game come out before we feature an image from it?

I think Mario should be on a snowbard like the statue at DK Summit, but it's cool nonetheless.

Per Sanna T. DK Summit pic looks best.

Wing-Cap Mario Around the World

 * Subject: A picture of Mario flying around the world.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) I think it looks much better than my other FI nominations. The real image (not the thumbnail) is larger, but only has one resolution. Besides that, I think it looks nice. It is very colorful, and represents a good amount of SM64 worlds and levels.
 * 2) Yoshi! This actually  quite a good picture. Nice job. But maybe you could give it a better name?
 * 3) I am Zero! Alright I'll support, but make the image bigger, or find a better quality one. Zero signing out.
 * 4) I'll support it because it looks awesome, it's from one of my favourite games,and there's a Boo in the background.
 * 5) The image is covered with the perfect amount of Mario so that we can see him, and the planet.
 * 6) i like super mario 64.
 * 7) We all do. Nice pic!
 * 8) I've decided to support this image.  It has a nice cartoon-like look.  And besides, who doesn't like Super Mario 64?
 * 9) It's been here so long, I've taken a liking for it.
 * 10) Yoshi Koshi Moshi Per Booman, Marioguy1 and Hrothgar.

Oppose

 * 1) Nah, the quality's bordering on 'too small' and the background characters look a bit off.
 * 2) - It looks too simple, doesn't have the highest quality, and looks too simple (Note: I said simple twice on purpose).
 * 3) Not much to see in this picture.

Comments
I think this image looks better in its full resolution.
 * What's funny is that the image was uploaded a year ago to the day (30 June 2008)

if this image was remade today, it would look great, but at the minute it looks to simple.I won't support or oppose. 11:48, 1 July 2009 (EDT)

Well, might I point out that most older artworks of Mario games have this kind of simplicity and quality, per say. What makes up for its simplicity, however, is that it is colorful, it represents a unique and classic game. The game it represents, SM64, is revolutionary in the time it was released, and defined a new era of Mario games. Also, this artwork represents a video game that is over a decade old (if this image were selected as FI, this would be the first to represent an N64 game, and the second oldest FI in terms of what game it relates to). So you see, this image is decent enough and would represent a very important point of time in gaming itself.
 * Besides, our next F.A. to be displayed on the main page is SM64. Why don't we feature this image of SM64 along with it on the main page? That would be rather nice to have both of them related. This would be the first time a FI and a FA are featured on the main page at the same time and are related to the same game.

How do I make the image bigger?
 * On this page? You're not allowed to do that. The image is supposed to be only a thumbnail here.

Oh, okay. Thank you.

Dry Luigi: The Super Mario 64 box-art is with the featured article on the main page.

Cast of Super Mario Bros. 3


Subject: Scene depicting the main characters of Super Mario Bros. 3. Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) A true classic.
 * 2) I have a poster of this!

 * I am Platitudinous, the awesomest word in the worldiverse! This is a great piece of art to go with a great game like SMB 3. Ciao!
 * 1) Looks good. Per all.
 * 2) per Time Q.
 * 3) Yoshi! Fantastic! And a classic too!
 * 4) I like this pic. Zero: Why do you think this is poor quality?
 * 5) great pic
 * 6) Great picture.  It brings back good memories.
 * 7) VERY NICE! I love the game too!

Oppose

 * 1) I am Zero! Yes this is a true classic, but, it is too blurry in the background. Zero signing out.
 * 2) Too crowded! Oh ya and plat... your word is smaller than mine (see the above section)
 * 3) Per MarioGuy1.

Comments
I am Zero! Well Zafum, it's a little blurry in the background, that's all, but if there is a clearer one, then I'll support. Zero signing out.

i dont get why you care about quality! the only pictures that have "good" quality are from the newer games, therefore all clasic games are out. and personally, I'm one for the classics.

its kinda crowded.

I like the Goomba's shoe. It kind of annoys me it was only in one level, but in the new Nintendo Power they mention an enemy in M&L3 that "Should remind Mario fans of a certain enemy from World 5-3 of SMB 3."

Yoshi and Co

 * Subject: Promotional artwork from Yoshi's Island DS
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) This image is similar to the boxart, but it's bigger and shows more.
 * Very interesting image, especially if you only know the section used as the boxart. Nice quality also.
 * 1) Yoshi! Despite this being extended box-art, i really like this pic
 * 2) per Time Q, Baby time! i think this is a good election, and quite funny... in a strange way... i think
 * 3) I am Zero! Great picture, but enlarge it slightly. Zero signing out.
 * 4) Good.
 * 5) I agree, it shows a lot about the games good side.  You can't say no to babies....unless you cold hearted.
 * 6) Per all
 * 7) BABIES!!! (i luv em as much as pixls)
 * 8) per all
 * 9) A nice chaotic picture.
 * 10) Very cute! I love this game!
 * 11) Very nice image,but it would be better if it was bigger.
 * 12) Yoshi Koshi Moshi Bright, colorful and CUTE;)!

Oppose

 * 1) just doesn't appeal to me.... 03:49, 4 July 2009 (EDT)

Comments
I am Platitudinous, the awesomest word in the worldiverse! What would Baby Waluigi look like? Ciao!
 * Like this.

Hey Super Mario Bros., I was tempted to nominate that Baby Waluigi pic.
 * No joke nominations
 * Although I agree with Marioguy1, I think the nomination would have been hilarious and I would have voted for it. 12:47, 10 July 2009 (EDT)

Smash Bros Army

 * Subject: The cast of Super Smash Bros Melee, assembled for a Melee.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) Yoshi! This is a great pic, great quality and Not Box-art!
 * 2) I am Zero! This is sort of like the SSBB image, but I'll support it, I want to see it one more time in the main page, just enlarge the image more. I can really see this with a comment like "The whole cast of Super Smash Bros. Melee, assembled in for a Melee". Zero signing out.
 * 3) per Zero, I only opposed the SSBB picture so it could be deleted as it was around for way too long.
 * 4) I like it more then the Brawl pic, as there is less characters to make the image to busy.
 * 5) Very good! My favorite so far!
 * 6) I SEE ROY!!! (and young link with his milk) can't say no to this
 * 7) - I like this one.
 * 8) I remember how amazed I was when I first saw this picture.  It's great.
 * 9) It seems a bit repetitive to use the word "Melee" twice in the subject area, but the image is good.
 * 10) Yoshi Koshi Moshi I WANT THIS PICTURE FEATURED.

Oppose

 * 1) i just think of this as the Brawl one.... they were used a lot in the past.
 * What the!? LOOK AT LUIGI!!!
 * 1) I am really tired of this image. P.S. Luigi is doing Green Missile.
 * 2) Just to hate the graphics in this game, they look to fake. Also, nothing stands out, they don't even blend in. Not a good picture in my opinion.

Comments
Yoshi! Looks Even Better bigger...

if only roy and mewtwo were in brawl...

IS PICHU RIDING ON BOWSER!

I got my Brawler Card on my page.

Luigi being attacked by ghosts

 * Subject:Luigi being chased by Ghosts
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) this was nominated before but lost for being to small. I decided I would give the image a fair chance.
 * 2) I uploaded a new version, and... Ta-da! The black bars are gone!
 * 3) I am Platitudinous, the awesomest word in the worldiverse! I agree with you, Super Mario Bros. This is a great image as well and it's funny to see Luigi get attacked by ghosts. Or Grodus. Or Goombas. You get the point, right? Ciao!
 * 4) per all.
 * 5) I am Zero! Alright, I will support, I can really see this picture in the main page. Zero signing out.
 * 6) per all
 * 7) Nice pic. Makes me curious about this game (have never played it).
 * 8) yay!
 * 9) Awesome Game,Awesome Image, and Awesome Boos.
 * 10) Since those black bars are gone now, I'll support.
 * 11) - I no longer see bars.
 * 12) - How could ANYONE oppose this!
 * 13) It shows the great, enjoyable, best sides of the game. The image is also very funny since Luigi's worst fears are ghost, so it makes it even more better.

Comments
I am Zero! Well, if you can get a clearer image, then I'll support it. Zero signing out.


 * Hey Zero, when you enlarge this pic, it looks a whole lot clearer. You should support.

I am Zero! Alright then, I'll support. Zero signing out.

um... God? have you literally wrote in a number 8? I'll change it 4 u. Lu-igi board

Hello new user. My name is Plaitudinous, the awesomest word in the worldiverse. You should get started on your page.

 * Try looking at it now.

there we go! Lu-igi board 12:47, 21 July 2009 (EDT)

Super Princess Peach

 * Subject:Peach and Perry, accompanied by some Toads.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) this is a very unapreciated game in my opinion and so I decided to do it justice with a good picture Lu-igi board
 * 2) I am Zero! Sort of unique, and good colors, alright I'll support, but if there is a better SPP image, then I'll reconsider. Zero signing out.
 * 3) per all.
 * 4) opposing it would be mean
 * 5) I like the round composition.
 * 6) Per all.
 * 7) Per Hrothgar.

Oppose

 * 1) - I like the picture, but it's quality is just too low.
 * 2) - Honestly, there is a blank background!
 * 3) Blank Background, poor quality, and this was a terible game! (Aside from the fact that Petey is in it)

Luigi Strikers

 * Subject: Artwork of Luigi from Mario Strikers Charged
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) This image is neither promotional art nor boxart, so I though it'd be different.
 * 2) Yoshi! I agree, this is different but there are others maybe they'de be better?. (the kritter one's my favourite)
 * 3) Lu-igi board Kritter pic is better though...
 * 4) I am Zero! Good, unique image that can be seen in the main page with a comment like, "Luigi charging up his kick to make the goal!". Zero signing out.
 * 5) Pretty good image with good quality, and p.s, you spelled charging and make wrong, Zero777.
 * 6) - I suppose the white background induces dramatic effect (whatever that means)
 * 7) I like the image and the style, it is different from most Mario artwork.

Oppose

 * 1) I never really cared for the Mario Strikers art style.  It just doesn't seem very Mario-like.  This picture is no different.
 * 2) How about a picture ina game! This is a drawing!
 * 3) It's just a strikers artwork. The pic that I nominated is better.
 * 4) The image doesn't really have a background.

Comments
Looks weird

Hey Mario freak, all of the previous FIs have been artwork, game pics don't look that good.

DK Jungle Party

 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) Yoshi! Great Pic. It's classic, not box-art and quite unique.
 * 2) nice.
 * 3) Per all. Tis a good image indeed.
 * 4) I am Zero! It's a little out-dated but I'll support it. Zero signing out.
 * 5) arrrrr bless. a great image of an old game :) 17:19, 7 July 2009 (EDT)
 * 6) i like the one on the beach better, but this is still good
 * 7) haha warios falling on his face
 * 8) - OK, the image is filled up, I like it!
 * 9) - This image is stellar. I think all the Mario Party board artwork like this need FI attention.
 * 10) Great board, great picture
 * 11) One of the best images I've seen!

NSMBWii Character scene

 * Subject: The characters of NSMBWii together on a level.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) Yoshi! I like this one even if there is a white background as it is new and shows a peek at NSMBWii
 * 2) I am Platitudinous, blah blah blah, etc. The DS one is there so we should show the sequel's art too! I like it. Ciao!
 * 3) per all. I can't wait to play this game!
 * 4) I am Zero! Very unique, and since it's an upcoming game it should go on the main page, but if there is one with a background then I'll reconsider. Zero signing out.
 * 5) We've already had an image based on the original, but I like it anyway.
 * 6) just can't say no
 * 7) per all, and i cant wait either
 * 8) - I've decided that from now on my biggest concern in images will be the placement of characters and for this image, I rank it a Pass!
 * 9) - Can't wait and great artwork.
 * 10) Per all.
 * 11) - The first time I saw this, I almost fainted! I can't wait for NSMBWii!!!
 * 12) Like you all I can't wait for the release either and featuring this image will get people even more exciting. Gee, just check out the quality!

Oppose

 * 1) - Even though it has an extremely high quality, It's lack of background and there being a very small amount of things to see in the picture makes me much more inclined to oppose.
 * 2) It looks like the artist just randomly placed stuff on a white piece of paper.
 * 3) Per Hrothgar.

Comments
Shouldn't there be another character instead of two generic, nameless Toads?

who's to say they won't be named? 08:29, 12 July 2009 (EDT)

I have an idea so crazy it just might work. The third character is the Toad named Toad, but player 4 is... a Shy Guy! It sounds odd, but it may work. For example, when it gets a Propeller Suit, it becomes a Fly Guy! Genius, right?

my god that is genius! 11:53, 13 July 2009 (EDT)

Thanks. I came up with it while looking at the page for "Mario Power Tennis" when I saw the pics of Shy Guy and Fly Guy.

They should have Hammer Bros. in Galaxy 2.

it will be beter than the ds game

The Olympic Girls

 * Subject: The "Mario girls" alongside the "Sonic girls" in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) I saw this and decided it was a little gem of an image. Lu-igi board 17:21, 19 July 2009 (EDT)
 * 2) This is probably one of the few screenshots I will ever support. Unlike a lot of other screenshots, this one actually has good quality. It has good resolution. I don't really see anything that would discriminate it from being a Featured Image (except for the overwelming amount of oppose votes). 11:30, 20 July 2009 (EDT)

Oppose

 * 1) I am Zero! Like I said, screenshots should not be featured images. And plus ask yourself, "Will this look good in the Main Page?" Zero siging out.
 * 2) As much as I love this picture (as well as I'm the person who took it and uploaded it), I'm sadly going to have to oppose this nomination as this wouldn't be really suitable for this Wiki's front page. Sorry.
 * 3) per all.
 * 4) - Like I said for the other MASATWOG image, I will never support the image of a game that has not come out yet!
 * 5) It's okay and all, showing the great graphics in the game, but I don't think it is FI material. I don't know what, but it needs something more. Just my opinion, though.
 * 6) Per Zero777

Comments
Zero777: And why not? This one has really good quality. I don't think there's a reason to disapprove screenshots in principle.

I am not about to support this pic, but there are nothing wrong with screenshots, Zero.

Strikers Charged Scene

 * Subject: A scene from Mario Strikers Charged
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) - VERY epic scene!
 * Looks great and has fantastic quality.
 * 1) One word: AWESOME!!!
 * 2) I am Zero! Yes, very great, but this is a box-art in the european version, but this should still be allowed. Zero signing out.
 * 3) Platitudinous, I don't think awesome can sum it up. I don't think any word can. It shows the epic battle in that match, showing the tension on the characters. It's Absolutely Amazing!!!
 * 4) - Now this is super mario strikers! I'm fighting with myself to change my vote in the other one now that I've seen what SMS can really be...
 * 5) Per all.
 * 6) Nice!!
 * 7) Epic win.
 * 8) Awsome!
 * 9) Per all
 * 10) box-art! and yet great... :P
 * 11) Per all.
 * 12) Yoshi! I was going to upload this image but decided against it as I thought people wouldn't like it because its box-art. Glad to see they aren't as this picture is AMAZING!!!

Oppose

 * No way. This picture is TOO good for the front page. Forget Featured, this deserves the title of "Godliest Mario Image, Ever, Ever."

Comments
- Before you oppose, remember that this is not the official boxart for everyone.

I still don't know if should I support or oppose this picture. It's scary... (a bit)

Uhm, Pokémoneinstein, are you kidding? Your vote doesn't make sense at all.
