January 21, 2010: Rickety Race
 10-0 
 * Subject: Rickety Race artwork from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong's Quest.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) Fantastic picture (in my opinion) with a ton of detail and color. I really the like the fireworks and the ferrous wheel in the background. The lights all look spectacular around the background, too! Also, the picture is MASSIVE, and even covers those stupid advertisements XD! Just a great picture!
 * 2) Ooh, pretty lights! Anyway, colorful image and pretty large, plus high qualiy. The only concern is the lighting. Did and Dix look makes it look like the picture is taking place in the daytime, buuuut the unique image and the lights make up for that.
 * 3) The Kritter looks a teensy bit faded to me but other than that it's an awesome colourful picture with fireworks and a whole bunch of other interesting things.
 * Now that's what I call an FI-worthy image. It's a bit dark, but I guess that doesn't really matter.
 * 1) I am Zero! I'll love to ride on that roller coaster. Zero signing out.
 * 2) Per above, lot's of detail and high quality in my opinion.
 * 3) Looks a little dark, but the quality is good.
 * 4) The picture looks faded, but it's great quality and I like all of those preeeettttyyy liiigggghhtsss. Nice, big, picture. FI worthy to me.
 * 5) Lu-igi board only someone as boring and as stubborn as Ebenezer Scrooge would oppose!
 * 6) I don't like so much the darkness of this pic, but oh well.

January 28, 2010: Mario Party Blast
 13-4 
 * Subject: Mario and friends in Mario Party 7.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) Big, high quality, colorful, bright, everything needed for a FI!
 * Boxart, boxart, I know... but do we have any better images nominated at the moment? I don't think so.
 * 1) Detail and color galore!
 * 2) Funny Pic with a lot of characters,items and great background!
 * 3) Very detailed. I refuse to say it's "epic" because people say everything is epic these days...
 * 4) Colorful and per all.
 * 5) - When I put this up for nomination, it was put down by about 10 users, and now everyone is supporting this? Anyways, this is great, very detailed, very colorful, and has stuff to look at.
 * 6) Per Fawfulfury.
 * 7) Ja.
 * 8) Wow!!! I think it is the perfect picture to featured. This picture is what the Mario games are all about : rivalry and friendship! And it has a whole cast of characters like Daisy, Waluigi, Wario, Birdo, and Toadette, characters that don't get featured as much as they should!
 * 9) Colorful picture. When it was put down before by, what, 102 billion opposers, I was a little bit surprised.
 * 10) - Really nice image.
 * 11) Panchito - Good shot, good image.

Oppose

 * 1) I am Zero! This was already nominated twice and it was put down. Zero signing out.
 * 2) I don't like that wallpaper and... MARIO PARTY 7 F****NG SUCKS!!!
 * 3) Lu-igi board terrible.
 * 4) It's boxart!!! if you want boxart up then you might as well put up a picture of the box

Comments
To all of you that will oppose because it's boxart: Yes, it is boxart...that was also nominated thrice. But go and find a more decent picture on this wiki to feature and let us know later on.
 * Boxart has won FI status multiple times before.

BMB: Yes, it was put down because of better pictures to be found. But now, go ahead and try finding a decent picture to nominate. It's so hard finding a good picture these days. :(

What do you guys mean? This picture seems VERY high quality to me. Also, is that Olimar's ship in the background by the star?!!


 * Nah, it's just high quality. And that's just a generic spaceship from Neon Heights. I would like this picture more if it weren't used as boxart. And Mario and Luigi look strange with that white outline around them.

@Pixfreak: *facepalm* Are you blind? Come on, you didn't see the comments section?

@Vini64 We do not want your opinion. Thank you.

@Cacciaguida: You know what, I'd take his opinion over your comment any day. I think what you said was very mean and even if his vote is horribly worded, you just told him he doesn't matter in other words.

February 4, 2010: BiS New Years
 9-0 
 * Subject: News Years drawing of M&L: BiS from four of the creators.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) - This is made by four creators of the game, having excellent quality and artwork for such as this new years drawing. It has to do with Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, so this should be allowed for FI nomination.
 * 2) -  I really like it :) and I uploaded it :P Great artwork!
 * 3) Meh, I like Miyamoto's New Super Mario Bros. Wii drawing more. Anyway, this picture is a great drawing. My only complaints are that this picture is a little too crowded and Luigi's nose is too small. But what does a small proportion error has to do with anything anyway?
 * 4) This is really great! Seriously it is I LOVE it
 * 5) Man, looks like he worked very hard on this drawing! It depicts the major characters in this game, plus it's just great that it's an actual drawing from Nintendo. This is excellent, should be featured (and I don't care much for this game anyway, good job for grabbing my support vote without it being a fan vote!)
 * 6) One word: G-R-E-A-T, It's made by Shigeru & Co. People =P!
 * 7) PEr all, but one question...why the hell is there a random Air Cheep there and where the hell is Midbus!?
 * 8) I am Zero! Even though this image already appeared on the Main Page not too long ago, I'll like to see this as a FI. Zero signing out.
 * 9) Per all.

Comments
I'll just refrain from voting because I honestly don't know what to do.

it's cool so I won't oppose, but It is a terrible nomination for FI.

@Fawfulfury65: It would be no problem to remove the "red thing", or do you also want the border removed? --

The border is fine, but that red whatever it is looks really stupid there. Yes, please remove it if you can.
 * I've removed the border, including the red object, and also cleaned the white background a bit (removed ugly JPG artifacts from the border). Hope everything is fine now. --

When I view it in full size, the border is still there...
 * Then refresh your browser or clear the cache. The new version doesn't have a border anymore. And just to inform people, this drawing was not made by Shigeru Miyamoto. At least his face doesn't appear next to it in the magazine, but the portraits of four other people do (but the picture below was drawn by Miyamoto for sure). --

This drawing is not made by Shigeru Miyamoto? Oops.

February 11, 2010: Peach's Birthday Cake
 11-4 
 * Subject: Peach's Birthday cake from Mario Party
 * Nominated by: 

Support

 * 1) Though might get put down by users because they think Mario Party images are overused for the main page, I wish to feature this because it's very colorful, the characters are expressive, good quality, and this cake makes me hungry!
 * 2) I like all Mario Party images; they are colorful and expressive. And I don't really care if DK looks like an orangutan. Awesome old images don't deserve this much hate.
 * 3) It looks like they're all saying "Holy shmoly!"
 * 4) This picture is great (look at Wario)!!! And per BLOF.
 * 5) Mmm, that cake looks delicious :) Colorful picture!
 * 6) This had to been the perfect christmas card for the MP back then when it can out. Some funny, especially Wario, and the colors blend together very nicely...
 * 7) Good quality, big image, and Wario fails...
 * 8) its a mario party picture. i like it
 * 9) It looks great.
 * 10) Per all.
 * 11) Even though they suck at making cakes (haw haw haw), I vote for this image.

Oppose

 * 1) I am Zero! The reason why I didn't nominate this when I nominated two or three MP pictures at the same time is that DK looks like an orangutan. Zero signing out.
 * 2) All the characters from the image look strange, just look at them, for example see Yoshi's and Peach's Face... WTF?!
 * 3) Panchito - It's is a bad portrayal of Mario's style.
 * 4) Lu-igi board boring.... stil, Wario's face. LOL!

Comments
Zero777: It's "orangutan." I think.

It's about time someone came in and said how some people look strange. This is an OLD game. Besides, IMO, Yoshi looks stranger in the newer games.

@Panchito: Could you explain why its "bad"?

February 18, 2010: Donkey Kong Jungle Climber
 11-1 
 * Subject: Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong in Donkey Kong: Jungle Climber.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) I know this is boxart, but it shows the scene, without the title, rating, DS border thingies, and the publishing company. It's good quality, has a scenery to fill out the entire picture and Donkey and Diddy in it! I know some parts are cut out from the original boxart, but I still think it's FI worthy.
 * 2) Per BLOF. Go, Diddy, go!
 * 3) I am Zero! Not bad, a nice, big, clear image, I support. Zero signing out.
 * 4) Now this is what I call a great DK image!
 * 5) So Colorful, per all.
 * 6) Great quality and interesting.
 * 7) One of the few great Donkey Kong images. Looks a little blurry though. Never saw this picture before, but I never saw the game's box art anyway.
 * 8) THIS IS BOXART!!!!!! what...BOXART!! I would never guess this is boxart. I haven't even heard of the game! It is a really nice image...to be boxart!
 * 9) Per above.
 * 10) Lu-igi board per all
 * 11) Per lpsc00l.

Oppose

 * 1) okay, so everbody sorry about before, but that wa sbefore. What i meant was the image is just... wierd. its not worthy of an FI. Its too bright, and just not good. So why are you yelling at me? EVERYONE HAs OPINIONS.

Comments
Raphael, your oppose is completely invalid. --
 * @Raphael: The reason I said it was invalid was because your oppose was "What's with the images this week??! This is the fourth image ive opposed TODAY!!" None of what you said was related to the image itself. --
 * It was valid. Every vote is valid, as long as it isn't made by a sockpuppet or a user voted twice or something. Look at the archives, at the beginning most votes had no "reasons" at all.

February 25, 2010: Beach Party
 14-2 
 * Subject: The Mario Party cast on Yoshi's Tropical Island in Mario Party
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) -- Good quality, brilliant colors, lots of action going on.
 * 2) - Per GM
 * 3) When LGM nominated it, it got put down by like, 10 users. Anyway, this is my favorite Mario Party picture. :) It's the best, I tell you! Poor Luigi...Plus, I don't give a tangerine about if they look weird or not; they looked like that back then.
 * 4) Per BabyLuigiOnFire, who summed up almost everything I was gonna say.
 * 5) I am Zero! I was one of them to put it down because of the weird look on DK's lip, but it's nice, clear, and big. Zero signing out.
 * 6) it is nice. the image is clear, the colors are bright, and the picture is quite lively. My only problem is the demented issue, why are most Mario Party pics demented?
 * 7) There is no reason to oppose an image I nominated before :P
 * 8) What I said with all the other MP1 ones. Now we can have the MP1 picture family FI's!!!!
 * 9) Per A to the L to the... other L.
 * 10) Per Garlic Man, good quality and it makes me longing for the summer :)
 * 11) - Probably one of the only good (IMO) MP images on the wiki. It doesn't make the characters look horrible and it shows an action scene too!
 * 12) Is the best MP picture here :/...
 * 13) This is a nice summer image, good quality, and good coloration. And look at Yoshi! Isn't that the cutest thing?
 * 14) Per all.

Oppose

 * 1) Mario Party images are WAY too overused on the main page. Plus, Peach is wierd and DK's lip makes himlook like a bozo.
 * 2) Lu-igi board boring. incredibly boring.

I made this my desktop wallpaper. :D

March 4, 2010: NSMB New Year
 12-4 
 * Subject: New Year's Drawing of New Super Mario Bros Wii
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * Ok, so nominating this was NOT my idea (guy who nominated BiS inspired me) but this has some notable differences between BiS (other than the obvious ones, obviously). This is less faded, bigger, absence of ugly borders and has action in it. The only concerns is what the pasta happened to Yellow Toad and there's less characters. Otherwise, I nominated for the same reasons Baby Mario Bloops gave out; it's the actual, authentic drawing from the creator himself!!
 * 1) Cute, nice size, and made by the Mario Man himself!
 * 2) Nice Image made by Shigeru & Co. too!, PS: Why is Toad here and not Yellow Toad 0_0?
 * 3) I am Zero! Not a bad image, especially since it's a drawing. Zero signing out.
 * 4) This is a great, nice-size image.
 * 5) Much better than the Boswer's Inside Story one because this one is not so crowded and faded. I guess no one likes Yellow Toad... :(
 * 6) - I don't know how I inspired you, but I will leave that to you. Anyways, this is really good, with a few confused points (red toad, NSMW instead of NSMBW) but that doesn't matter much in this image. This is excellent, I can't believe that they can create such a outstanding piece of artwork (I wish I could draw like that).
 * 7) Nice drawing of a nice game.
 * 8) I agree with Fawfulfury65 and Zero777, this one is nice!
 * 9) You got to admit, this is pretty cute!
 * 10) An adorable drawing by Mario's creator.
 * 11) If the M&L PiT got featured, why not this???

Oppose

 * 1) Lu-igi board this is just ugly....
 * 2) I don't think it looks good.
 * 3) ummm... well. It's a nice picture but... it doesn't sum up celebration or Mario games. I don't see what people in bubbles have to do with new year or Mario. I feel it is not a pic for featured image.
 * 4) Panchito I don't care who this was done by, it's nothing special.

Comments
@Fawfulfury:So you support one New Year image but not the other?
 * @Reversinator:Er-this page follows the No-Signature Policy...
 * @Reversinator: There's nothing wrong with supporting one New Year image but not the other. --

I support it now.

lpsc00l: You don't know what the bubbles are? Then you clearly did not play New Super Mario Bros. Wii. That is what this image is about.

March 11, 2010: Super Mario Galaxy 2 artwork
 16-6 
 * Subject: Artwork despiting Mario, Yoshi, a Luma, and many other stuffs.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) - I love this cheerful new image for SMG2, quality is big and is very brigthful. I bet this will be used for the boxart.
 * 2) This picture is awesome.
 * 3) If this is used for the boxart, I will be the happiest person on earth! I love it!
 * 4) This is great! Look at that fat purple Luma in the background! (Maybe a hungry Luma?)
 * 5) Yeah. Per all.
 * 6) I think it's an amazing image! It has many details and it's really an accurate pic! Plus I think it's better with the logo :P
 * 7) - Yes, very amazing!
 * 8) Now THAT'S an image. Bursting with character, it really makes me want to play the game. June 11th can't come soon enough.
 * 9) A great colorful image!I love it!
 * 10) I supported the other Pic, this one is the same but A LOT more colorful, Per FF65.
 * 11) Lu-igi board epic. just epic
 * 12) - Per my comment below.
 * 13) - Cool. And I think the logo makes it look better.....
 * 14) Looks great, high quality pic, and there's a fat purple luma thing. What's not to love?
 * 15) This is so awsome!!! Colourful and cheerful. I hope the game will be the same...
 * 1) This is so awsome!!! Colourful and cheerful. I hope the game will be the same...

Oppose

 * Per my and Baby Mario Bloops's comments below. We should wait for a non-logo version.
 * 1) 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...
 * 2) 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.
 * 3) 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.
 * 4) 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?
 * 5) - 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?
 * 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?
 * I actually like the logo on the top. Without it, the top of the picture will look too plain.

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.
 * I don't see her hair anywhere.

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).
 * 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...
 * 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.
 * LOL, yeah, probably.

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.

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?

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.

its a very colorful game

March 18, 2010: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Group
 17-7 
 * Subject: Some of SSBB's characters.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) -- Depicts the main characters of each franchise represented in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Cool-looking pic.
 * Hm, so it wasn't the resolution that was bothering me. Actually, it was the blurriness that bothered me. You got my vote.
 * 1) It's nice, big, high in quality, and... exciting!
 * 2) This is cool! Per LKF.
 * 3) This is a neat pic.
 * 4) Nice graphic style, perfect quality, colorful enough.
 * 5) I don't care if this is boxart or not... it just plain awesome!!
 * 6) Good quality, per above.
 * 7) 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.
 * 8) Good Pic = FI Status. Per all.
 * 9) 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.
 * 10) - Epic, and an excellent quality.
 * 11) - I was tempted to oppose, due to the fact that I had already seen it here, but meh.
 * 12) - Awsome, although it's everewhere on the internet.
 * 13) - I like that.
 * 14) Lu-igi board I've decided that seen as brawl is more a religion then a game to me, I would support this awsome pic!
 * 15) Yup.

Oppose

 * 1) - 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) BOXART!!! if you want to nominate box art put up the picture of the box!!!
 * 4) - Per all, seriously SSBB Pics are getting overrated...
 * 5) - Sorry but this has been seen by me soooooooo many times. Sorry.
 * 6) - This is my favorite Wii game EVER, but I don't think I want the overused boxart to be a featured image.
 * 7) Despite my love for the Smash Bros. series, this picture has pixelated parts (eg. Mario's Nose)from the size it would be used in, like the Mario Party image

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. --

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.

March 25, 2010: Mario Mix Revolution
 12-2 
 * Subject: Mario break dancing in Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) This image PWNS. Nuff said.
 * 2) -- I love it
 * 3) - Awesome Quality and a lot colorful.
 * 4) I am Zero! Awesome picture, a little different from what is shown. Zero signing out.
 * 5) Lu-igi board I love it!
 * 6) Woah! This has the best. Lighting. Ever!
 * 7) BOXART!!!! But per all, even though Mario is in an undignified position.
 * 8) This is way better than the boxart.
 * 9) This is a great picture. Would have been perfect if Mario was in a better position, though. Ugh.
 * 10) Nice
 * 11) It's flat out awesome!
 * 12) Per all.

Oppose

 * 1) ? KS3 Changed? Anyway, it would look better without the white outline around Mario, it makes it look like just a picture of Mario cropped into a background.
 * 2) Per Mariofanatic64

Comments
@MarioFanatic64: The reason why I changed is because there are lights shining on Mario, obviously there should be white lines around parts of Mario.
 * Mario would probably blend in with the background a little bit without the white outline, too.
 * Still, its only a picture of mario standing on 1 hand. not very exciting.
 * @KS3 Yes, i agree there, but if light was coming out from underneath Mario then he shouldn't have a shadow.

April 1, 2010: Super Paper Mario Art
 13-2 
 * Subject: Scenery from the boxart
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) Finally, a good Paper Mario scene! It's colorful, has characters in it, with the lack of the Wii box thingies and extremely high resolution and quality. It deserves to be on the main page!
 * 2) AWESOME!
 * 3) This image has great quality and lotsa characters. All I can say.
 * 4) I am Zero! This is an awesome image even though it's the cover. Zero signing out.
 * 5) This is a great pic. It's probably why it made the boxart.
 * 6) Per all.
 * 7) Lu-igi board yes, yes and yes
 * 8) The full resolution is HUGE. Never played the game, which means I barely see the boxart. Yay. Why not?
 * 9) Per all
 * 10) Best FI nomination since i joined the wiki.
 * 11) - Yeah, per all.
 * 12) - Colorful and detailed, per all.
 * 13) Per above.

Oppose

 * 1) Too plain.
 * 2) Mario's moustache is too black.

Comments
Commander Code-8: Too black? It looks brown-black to me. And that's not black.

April 8, 2010: Mario from Mario Power Tennis
 12-4 
 * Subject: Mario from Mario Power Tennis.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) -- Great image. High quality and great artwork.
 * 2) - Why not? It would look great on the main page.
 * 3) Per all.
 * 4) A little JPEG'd, but overall a awesome action picture.
 * 5) Yea.
 * 6) Lu-igi board I can see it in motion
 * 7) I don't care if it's no action; Wikipedia's FI has no "action" either, and same goes for that Bowser Strikers picture. It's awesome quality, and it would look outstanding on the main page.
 * 8) It's a great picture. Why can't pictures focusing on one picture be featured? And also, why would this image be opposed for nothing happening when the Bowser one is basically the same problem, but still supported?
 * 9) Good Quality, Not too bright. Why Not
 * 10) Per the nominator.
 * 11) cool!!!
 * 12) - Cool :3

Oppose

 * Uh, nothing really happens here.
 * 1) Per Time Q. Also, I can see pixelated outlines whenever the colours in the picture change.
 * 2) Yup.... There's nothing going on here...
 * 3) - Bland, boring, ball is too fuzzy. Per Time Q.

Comments
Oh, come on. This one has no action and everyone still supports it, while the Avalanche! pic has lots of action and still everyone seems to hate.
 * The problem about the Avalanche pic is that you keep nominating it every few weeks. People get bored of it. Wait at least some months before you nominate it again.

Super Mario Bros. Artwork
 16-3 
 * Subject: Artwork from Super Mario Bros.
 * Nominated by:

Support

 * 1) It's a good classic image that I feel should go on the main page, despite its cuckoo-looking characters (but they're supposed to be like that back then, so it's ok)
 * 2) It's good enough for me.
 * 3) Per all.
 * 4) The artwork shows a very important part of Mario's history, it's how Mario became Super Mario. It is interesting to see how Mr. Miyamoto once envisioned the characters and how they differ from the later designs.
 * Per Grandy. We NEED this on the Main Page.
 * 1) Per all. Especially Grandy02.
 * 2) Per all. Great image!
 * 3) You know on second thought.This is a classic image.It deserve to be on the main page.It shows the birth of Bowser,Peach,Hammer bros,spinies etc.
 * 4) Looks great and all, but why are the Toads smiling? The princess is getting kidnapped right behind them!!
 * 5) Bowser's face is all lumpy! ^^
 * 6) - Cool :3
 * 7) Sweet classic SMB artwork, pretty cool!
 * 8) Let's get this done with and be done with it. Per all.
 * 9) Per all.
 * 10) Glad this was nominated, since it is a terrific example of what has been and could have become Mario.
 * 11) - Per all, this image is a classic one.

Oppose

 * 1) Per KS3
 * 2) Quality is an issue here.
 * 3) Lu-igi board per all. very, very odd....

Comments
@KS3: Yoshi wasnt in Super Mario Bros.

Toads are supposed to be happy. Their faces are stuck like that. And Yoshi fails too hard to be in this image AKA he wasn't even INVENTED yet. It's an old image, stop bashing it.

@KS3: No offense, but i'm getting tired of your constant excuse, 'Mario is fat'. And how do you come to think the princess' body was made of a ? block? It is pretty clearly a dress and i cant see a ?.

@KS3: I don't understand your complaints about the appearance of the characters. The artwork is from 1985 and is 25 years old now, older than most of the users, of course the characters look different from today. --

I uploaded a new version of this image with improved contrast and fixed size (used scans of the Japanese box as a reference). Does this one look better? @LeftyGreenMario: How does it exactly lack in quality? The only problem I saw were the a bit too dark colours. --

You can tell the image is slightly faded when you look at it closely.

@LeftyGreenMario it's all about perspective...

Any opinions on the new version on the right? If this gets featured, the image should at least have the right size. @Damariogamr: I guess the Toads are happy because they see their saver Mario, Peach also seems to call for help as she sees Mario (and Bowser angrily looks at him). --


 * It's the exact same thing. I compared them with tabs and they're the same.


 * It's more accurate to the original box art colors and size ratio. I added the original changes to try and improve the image quality. I'm perfectly fine with either image though.

@Ralphaelraven497: Your comment says per KS3, but KS3 is in the support section. KS3 ( Talk )

 * 4) - Great colors, wonderful scene, in fact, this makes you want to get the game! Too bad that this is like the best thing about the game...
 * 5) - It's a nice, big and colourful picture, very beautiful and detailed. I love the soft colours and how well they blend in with one another.
 * I agree it looks strange at first glance, but the longer you look at it, the more beautiful it gets.
 * 1) - God, this picture looks splendid. I didn't even know it existed. It looks even good enough to make me come to the FI nomination page to support it.

 * 3) Lu-igi board beautiful
 * 4) - Per All.

Oppose

 * 1) Like I said before, the colours don't stand out enough.
 * 2) This image is too pink, and it hurts my eyes because the outlines don't stand out a lot.
 * 3) It's a nice and cute image, but per all.

@KS3: What?

Still @ KS3: What do you mean by deleted? I don't recall this being deleted ever.
 * It was indeed nominated for a few hours, but then deleted by the nominator.

This image is exceptionally well composed, and looks very beautiful from the perspective of art. The fact that it doesn't look so outstanding isn't because it was drawn badly, but because it is painted in pastel colours, which give it a softer tone. I think it is stuff like this that is just made for being on the main page. I even daresay it outclasses every other picture currently on this page (but that's just me). If this picture gets neglected, I am afraid I have to set this page on fire (yes, this is a joke. Don't take it serious). -
 * It's still faded.
 * It's not faded. It's just the contrast of the colors make it seem like it's faded. Maybe you're saying that the colors don't stand out enough? Because it surely doesn't for me.
