MarioWiki talk:Featured images

By technichal problems on my laptop, I couldn't say something important as well during the proposal: What about screenshots? In my opinion it's necessary to talk about these type of images, because some of them contain watermarks or are relatively small in size (the most notable defects). I was thinking about adding some rules on this:
 * Screenshots free of watermarks or logos on them. It is possible we are showing the logo of a site, considering then we "stole" that picture.
 * Size: the size doesn't matter if the image shown has a great quality, and all the properties that fullfills the general rules.
 * Sprites: sprites should be in PNG or GIF format. a JPG sprite will appear with "spots" or blurry.
 * when featured, the image could carry a description (something similar to that shown in wikipedia's featured pictures).


 * Actually, I'd say that every image should be free of logos, since websites like Gamespot or IGN can host art as well as screenshots. I'd also say that any screenshot of a 2D game should have to be png. On the other hand, since these are being voted on, I'd guess that any inappropriate images would probably be filtered out naturally. 00:16, 10 April 2009 (EDT)


 * Sure, although maybe these rules can be set there too, which every user can understand what we like for a featured image (or media) exactly... --

This type of idea failed, check the proposals archive...Proposals/Archive_8 Edit: Never mind, I thought it's for something else, not eh Featured Images section. xD -
