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 EST), 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.

7. Baby Mario Bloops (talk) Love this picture!!! You can't get enough of this. I more than agree it should be a featured Image.
8. Mario freak (talk) Great Quality
9. Toadster_04 (talk) Common or not, it's a great picture.
10. MeritC (talk) Per all; this is one of my personal favorite group pictures for a Mario spinoff installment. Enough said.
11. Booman (talk) It's okay,and there's a boo in the benches.
12. Yoshi Koshi Moshi Nice 'n colorful.
13. ForeverDaisy09 (talk) Better than most other pictures we see.
14. Dark Lakitu 789 (talk) The quality is great,the picture isn't boring,even though almost every one seen this picture,it's great.
15. DaisyRox02 (talk) This is a great pic and a fun game!
16. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) I like this picture because A) It has great quality B) It shows a fair amount of characters and C) It's just a good picture! The ball is blurry and I'm not sure if that's supposed to happen.
17. Vini64 (talk) Even I don't like this game, this picture have everything to be featured.
18. Dry Luigi (talk) Great game, great pic.
19. LeftyGreenMario (talk) It's a colorful picture! Besides, the actual boxart doesn't show Wario, Waluigi, or Boo.
20. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) Per LeftyGreenMario
21. PT PRANA (talk) This pic is way too overused, even in Europe, but Petey is in the background so its an automatic yes from me!

Oppose

1. Zafum (talk) - This is like the ssbb picture. It's just too common of a picture.
2. Super Mario Bros. (talk) Per my reasons for opposing the Mario Party DS box-art.
3. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! This is the box art, seen too many times. Zero signing out.
4. Marioguy1 (talk) Per SMB.
5. Lu-igi board (talk) I've decided box art shouldn't realy be featured.
6. Hrothgar (talk) Like Lu-igi board said, box art shouldn't be featured.
7. TheTigerBuddy (talk) Per Lu-igi Board.
8. McCloud (talk) Using logic, I don't think anyone except the umpire and the catcher are allowed behind the batter. It makes the picture seem a little crowded behind Bowser.
9. Shyster66 (talk) All you can really see is Mario and no one else.
10. Dark Bowser (talk) Per Zafum... I've seen this WAY too many times before...
11. YellowYoshi127 (talk) Yoshi! Ok, I've changed my mind, per SMB and Zafum.

Comments

Timmy Tim (talk) Images like this are the reason we have the 'featured image' page!

I think we have enough boxart covers in this list. Phoenix Rider (talk)

I like how green and colourful the image is, but it centers too much around Mario and neglects the other charas in the background (And Bowser looks like he seriously needs a potty break *pats Bowser*). - Edofenrir (talk)

Wing-Cap Mario Around the World

• Subject: A picture of Mario flying around the world.
• Nominated by: Super Mario Bros. (talk)

Support

1. Super Mario Bros. (talk) 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. YellowYoshi127 (talk) Yoshi! This actually quite a good picture. Nice job. But maybe you could give it a better name?
3. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! Alright I'll support, but make the image bigger, or find a better quality one. Zero signing out.
4. Booman (talk) 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. Marioguy1 (talk) The image is covered with the perfect amount of Mario so that we can see him, and the planet.
6. Pixlfreak (talk) i like super mario 64.
7. Platitudinous (talk) We all do. Nice pic!
8. Hrothgar (talk) I've decided to support this image. It has a nice cartoon-like look. And besides, who doesn't like Super Mario 64?
9. Yoshi Koshi Moshi Per Booman, Marioguy1 and Hrothgar.
10. Mario7727 (talk)This Picture From Super Mario 64 Looks So Cool!
11. Shyster66 (talk) I support for it's color.
12. Toadster_04 (talk) A nice quality image.
13. Dark Bowser (talk) I'll support...
14. Edofenrir (talk) Classic!
15. lewa159 (talk) Super Mario 64 is my favorite game ever, and this picture reperesents it soooo well.

Oppose

1. Timmy Tim (talk) Nah, the quality's bordering on 'too small' and the background characters look a bit off.
2. Zafum (talk) - It looks too simple, doesn't have the highest quality, and looks too simple (Note: I said simple twice on purpose).
3. McQueenMario (talk) Not much to see in this picture.
4. Time Q (talk): I agree with all the opposers.
5. Dark boo (talk) It just really doesnt look that good to me.
6. Superstar Daisy (talk) 4.75/10. It's OK, but not FI quality.
7. ForeverDaisy09 (talk) Agree with above comment.
8. lpsc00l (talk) What?! Mario looks orange! This picture dosen't deserve to be on the front page!! I mean seriously,the quality stinks!!
9. Lu-igi board (talk) It's been here so long I've seen enough of it.
10. Vini64 (talk) Per everyone.
11. Paper Yoshi (talk) There are better images on this page. Also, it's been here for a long time.
12. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) I think it's about time this image should get taken off.
13. DaisyRox02 (talk) I should have opposed this the second I saw it! this makes Mario look huge and the planet look tiny. Who would want that to happen even if he's awesome? Also, theres a sky background! This picture was made slovenly.
14. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) I changed my mind. This picture has been here too long and it doesn't appeal to me anymore.

Comments

I think this image looks better in its full resolution. Super Mario Bros. (talk)

What's funny is that the image was uploaded a year ago to the day (30 June 2008) Super Mario Bros. (talk)

if this image was remade today, it would look great, but at the minute it looks to simple.I won't support or oppose. Lu-igi board (talk)

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. Super Mario Bros. (talk)

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. Super Mario Bros. (talk)

How do I make the image bigger? Super Mario Bros. (talk)

On this page? You're not allowed to do that. The image is supposed to be only a thumbnail here. Time Q (talk)

Oh, okay. Thank you. Super Mario Bros. (talk)

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

This one is Meh-ish. Like I said as my reason for opposing, it's good, but not THAT good. Superstar Daisy (talk)

I know! Like I said. It was made slovenly, there's too much that doen't fit in. It's like they just threw stuff in just to make it look epic.DaisyRox02 (talk)

1. Grandy02 (talk) A true classic.
2. I have a poster of this! Lu-igi board (talk)
3. Time Q (talk): Cool image! Time to feature an old school Mario game.

9. Pixlfreak (talk) great pic
10. Hrothgar (talk) Great picture. It brings back good memories.
11. McQueenMario (talk) VERY NICE! I love the game too!
12. Nihaho13 (talk) - Nihaho needs moar koopalings! (I hope someone gets that joke)
13. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Per all. But Bowser looks different than what he does and Roy's shades look weird, but the great quality, scene, and it's overall appearence is good.
14. Dry Luigi (talk) Great pic a true classic.
15. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)I'll support it because it's a rare picture
16. Vini64 (talk) Bowser looks weird but is a cool picture.
17. Dark Bowser (talk) I like classic pictures!
18. Edofenrir (talk) - The roots of a series should never be neglected, and it would add an interesting contrast, if this would be featured. Therefore I give my full support to this picture, even if I have to admit that Bowser looks strange with black eyebrows (but who cares, if he's wearing an awesome cape?).

Oppose

1. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! Yes this is a true classic, but, it is too blurry in the background. Zero signing out.
2. Marioguy1 (talk) Too crowded! Oh ya and plat... your word is smaller than mine (see the above section)
3. Booman (talk) Per MarioGuy1.
4. Shyster66 (talk) What Zero777 said. Too blurry
5. DaisyRox02 (talk) Per all. It's not so great.
6. ForeverDaisy09 (talk) It's sort of odd isn't it?
7. MechaWave (talk) Eww! Its blurriness in the background and lack of entertainment makes it a little bland.
8. lpsc00l (talk) I have 3 resons this shouldn't be featured, 1)There is too much going on, 2)It too blurry, and 3)it just boring!!

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. Zero777 (talk)

Pixlfreak (talk) 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.

YourBuddyBill (talk) its kinda crowded.

Platitudinous (talk) 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."

Nihaho13 (talk) Were did you find dis pic? 'Cause maybe there's a Super Mario World cast picture I can upload here.

At Gamekult, the only site where I found it with this resolution (and even without a watermark). Grandy02 (talk)

Zero777, Shyster66, MechaWave: What do you mean by "blurriness"? To me, it doesn't look blurry at all. You do know that the image above is just a preview and you can enlargen it by clicking on it, right? Time Q (talk)

Ipsc00I, how can it be boring and have too much going on in it at the same time? Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk)

PT PRANA (talk) I'm not taking sides here, but whats up with the beaver outfit?! I just don't get it!

Platitudinous (talk) What beaver suit? I think you're thinking of the Tanooki Suit.

LeftyGreenMario (talk) Nah, it's the Raccoon Suit. The Tanooki suit is something slightly different.

1. YellowYoshi127 (talk) Yoshi! This is a great pic, great quality and Not Box-art!
2. Zero777 (talk) 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. Timmy Tim (talk) per Zero, I only opposed the SSBB picture so it could be deleted as it was around for way too long.
4. Marioguy1 (talk) Very good! My favorite so far!
5. Pixlfreak (talk) I SEE ROY!!! (and young link with his milk) can't say no to this
6. Zafum (talk) - I like this one.
7. Hrothgar (talk) I remember how amazed I was when I first saw this picture. It's great.
8. Super Mario Bros. (talk) It seems a bit repetitive to use the word "Melee" twice in the subject area, but the image is good.
9. Yoshi Koshi Moshi I WANT THIS PICTURE FEATURED.
10. Platitudinous (talk) Super Mario Bros. is right, and I think "battle" would be better. Looking at Luigi, though, it actually seems like what he'd do during an important pic like this.
11. Prince Boo (talk) looks awesome
12. Zafum (talk) - I actually like this picture.
13. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Why do a bunch of Luigi fans whine about what Luigi is doing? he looks cool to me. And the Brawl cast picture is just like this except they're facing the other way and with a white background.
14. Superstar Daisy (talk) This is actually pretty good.
15. Dry Luigi (talk) Great pic possibly better than the Brawl one.
16. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) Melee was fun! The picture is nice! Great game with great picture!
17. LeftyGreenMario (talk) A great image from a great game.
18. Shyster66 (talk) Very actiony. Plus, Luigi's shooting himself
19. Zafum (talk) Although it is rather crowded, it's still great as a whole.

Oppose

1. Castle Toad (talk) i just think of this as the Brawl one.... they were used a lot in the past.
2. Toadboy911 (talk): What the!? LOOK AT LUIGI!!!
3. McQueenMario (talk) I am really tired of this image. P.S. Luigi is doing Green Missile.
4. Baby Mario Bloops (talk) 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.
5. Nihaho13 (talk) ...I hope this wont turn into a war like the Mario Party DS picture...
6. Twentytwofiftyseven (talk) - With so many characters, the image looks (to me) like a mess at 300px.
7. DaisyRox02 (talk) I'd like the SSBB cast better than this. It's just more action-packed than this.
8. lpsc00l (talk) it has too much going on!!! When i first saw the picture i was looking for Luigi...i found him.....IN THE SKY!!!
9. ForeverDaisy09 (talk) Image is extremely overused.

Platitudinous (talk)I got my Brawler Card on my page.

Pixlfreak (talk) why does everyone care about graphics!!! so what? it was for the gamecube and the gamecube doesnt have the best graphics in the world.

One person criticized the graphics. Twentytwofiftyseven (talk)

I certainly do not like the fact that not even half of Bowser is visible on this picture, but opposing because my favourite character has a disadvantage on a picture seems not right to me, so I better abstain. - Edofenrir (talk)

3. Lu-igi board (talk) per all. I can't wait to play this game!
4. Zero777 (talk) 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.

6. Pixlfreak (talk) just can't say no
7. YourBuddyBill (talk)per all, and i cant wait either

10. Super Mario Bros. (talk) Per all.
11. McQueenMario (talk) - The first time I saw this, I almost fainted! I can't wait for NSMBWii!!!
12. Yoshi Koshi Moshi (talk) 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!
13. Dark boo (talk) Dispite the blank background this picture just looks so good it makes up for it.
14. Nintendo24 (talk) I can wait for this game to come out and the picture is really awesome even it has a white background.
15. Superstar Daisy (talk) I love it! It looks so cool and so......... Mario!
16. Dry Luigi (talk) How could anyone oppose this or say it is boring? This is going to be a great game and this pic represents everything that will make the game great. The white background is a little boring, but the pic already has a lot of color
17. Shyster66 (talk) I can't wait for this game so I support.

Oppose

1. Zafum (talk) - 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. Hrothgar (talk) It looks like the artist just randomly placed stuff on a white piece of paper.
3. Toadster_04 (talk) Per Hrothgar.
4. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) It looks very cloudy which means it has no background. And it looks they are all giants right on the horizon.
5. Nihaho13 (talk) no backround says all.
6. ForeverDaisy09 (talk) This is just artwork composed together without a setting. Lame.
7. Lpsc00l (talk) I think it looks like someone got a bunch of single pictures, scrambled them together and forgot to put a setting. a.k.a, it looks like a 3 year old made it.
8. Karinmij (talk) I agree with ForeverDaisy09.
9. DaisyRox02 (talk) It's like the Ice Mario pic. It needs a background to be featured! It's so boring!
10. Vini64 (talk) Well, I can do that in Paint...
11. Paper Yoshi (talk) Per Lpsc001.
12. Fawfulfury65 (talk) The background is white. Talk about boring.
13. LeftyGreenMario (talk) This picture is so boring. I can just take 3 new pictures, recycle some others, paste them together, and there: Featured Image!!!
14. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) I dislike this picture because first, there's no background. Second, unlike New Super Mario Bros. DS, I can copy and paste the artwork into that and there.
15. Dark Bowser (talk) Per everyone.
16. Edofenrir (talk) - It... it has no background. *refreshes* Uh, nope. Still no background. Just white emptyness. Hm, maybe if a version with a sky background or something like that is found, but in that state... better not.

Comments

Platitudinous (talk) Shouldn't there be another character instead of two generic, nameless Toads?

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

Platitudinous (talk) 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! Lu-igi board (talk) 11:53, 13 July 2009 (EDT)

Platitudinous (talk) 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.

Platitudinous (talk) They should have Hammer Bros. in Galaxy 2.

it will be beter than the ds game
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Baby dk (talk).

having no background makes the picture look better! Lu-igi board 06:17, 29 July 2009 (EDT) p.s I have a poster of this! woot!

Platitudinous (talk) Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, dudes and dudettes, I have found the tentative release date for this game! It is November 2nd, 2009!

Platitudinous (talk) Who was it that thought, on the wired.com interview, that Miyamoto was serious about the cake thing? It was a joke!

Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Why are alot of people supporting it because they think the game looks good, but they're not saying alot about the picture which, by the way, I made an exact replica of in MS Paint.

I hope Nintendo would make better game art than this. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk)

This picture is stupid. I hope it gets removed soon. It only meets one condition of a FI: quality. And I don't consider FIs actually do-able on Paint for, like, 5 minutes. LeftyGreenMario (talk)

Lemmy Koopa Fan is right. People aren't considering the image itself (which can be done by almost any person) before voting. They are only supporting it 'cause the game looks epic. And yes, the game will surely be epic. Now, supporters, go find a "Which one of these games do you think will be great?" poll with a "NSMBWii" option on it and cast your votes there, not here.

2. Timmy Tim (talk) Let's see how this turns out...
3. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) This is a screenshot? It looks like artwork. And this picture is also very unique. i've never seen it before.
4. lpsc00l (talk) Awww! I like it.It's cute. Plus I never saw it any where else!!!
5. Tucayo (talk) - Nice image, like the reality of it
6. Superstar Daisy (talk) Per Lemmy.

8. this image is full of power! Lu-igi board 04:30, 27 August 2009 (EDT)
9. Marioguy1 (talk) - There is no blank space or lack of characters...
10. Karinmij (talk) Though I agree with Time Q that it's a low quality picture (when enlarged), I really like it so I support this one :)
11. Pixlfreak (talk) it's one of those screenshots that you really want and can never find online!!! Like all the other good screenshots out there that Nintendo doesn't care about and we do
12. Baby Mario Bloops (talk) I think it looks great! Why not? It looks better than some past featured images.
13. Booman (talk) Per Bloops.
14. Platitudinous (talk) At first glance, the Minis looked strangely realistic.
15. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) I loved the picture at first...and still like it! It's a rare image.
16. LeftyGreenMario (talk) Low Quality, but rare.
17. 8-bits (talk) love pic not a big fan of the game though
18. DaisyRox02 (talk) This pic reminds me of the game, epic and fun!

Oppose

1. Time Q (talk): Low quality. Even in its standard size, which is quite small, it's pixelated.
2. McQueenMario (talk) Per Time Q.
3. Fawfulfury65 (talk) Just plain boring. This shouldn't be a FI! Also, per Time Q.
4. Paper Yoshi (talk) Per Time Q.
5. Dry Luigi (talk) Per Time Q
6. Castle Toad (talk) How can we have a so low quality Image in the Main Page, even if it's "cute" or something like that.... saddly i think this time "Quantity wins over Quality"
7. Toadster_04 (talk) Per all. The quality is just too poor.
8. Twentytwofiftyseven (talk) Small, blurry, and uninteresting image.
9. Shyster66 (talk) Time Q's right.
10. Dark Bowser (talk) Yup... Per Time Q.....
11. Zafum (talk) - Although images have passed before this with even lower resolutions, this picture is very very very boring.

Comments

Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Time Q: For a screenshot, this actually has pretty good quality.

Click on it and you'll see it has very low resolution. We can't put that on the main page, since it needs to be enlarged. Time Q (talk)

Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Well,I admit it's kind of small. But I'm still not removing my vote.

Before you keep supporting this image, please click here. This is as big as the image can get, and even in this size it's pixelated and low-quality. We need images that can be enlarged further if we want to put them on the main page. Time Q (talk)

Yeeeaaahhh...? It doesn't really seem THAT small. I still think it's featured image worthy. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk)

Yoshi! Time Q, main page resolution is lower than this one. YellowYoshi127 (talk)

Yes, but visitors should be able to enlarge the image on the main page. When you hover over it, it even reads, "Click for a larger image." When users do that they'll see a pixelated image, which is bad. Time Q (talk)

Great... looks like this is going to be our first low-quality FI... oh well :( Time Q (talk)

1. Time Q (talk): It's a quite funny scene in a likeable comic style from an excellent Mario game :P
2. Timmy Tim (talk) Well, we currently have one that's similar, but you do have a point.
3. lpsc00l (talk) Ehh, What the heck! I'll support it.
4. Marioguy1 (talk) - It accurately shows the many different varieties of foes available in that certain level of Super Mario World, no more, no less.
5. Lu-igi board (talk) wow this is just epic!
6. Pie Shroom (talk) It's awesome.
7. Vini64 (talk) Every Super Mario World artwork must be featured :D!
8. Tucayo (talk) Simply LOVE SMW artwork
9. Pixlfreak (talk) I love comical moments like this!!
10. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) Liked the game, liked the picture
11. Shyster66 (talk) Another comical moment
12. Dark Bowser (talk) I like Mario's expression in this picture!

Oppose

1. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Alright this has been here for too long and it's become boring.
2. McQueenMario (talk) I changed my mind. This is kinda funny, but per Lemmy Koopa Fan.
3. Zafum (talk) - This picture looks sort of... cut off, and it's boring as well. Just another all-round bad picture.
4. LeftyGreenMario (talk) - Nice too look at once in a while, but it's a boring picture.

Comments

Lemmy Koopa Fan: Too long? It's not even been two weeks, just look at the images at the top of the page :P Time Q (talk)

Yes, I think this has been here for too long. Because it just doesn't have as much "pazazz" as the ones at the top of the page. So when there's a picture like this compared to the other ones, after about two weeks, it gets boring fast. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) P.S. When it comes to images like these, I'm slightly impatient.

I guess that's okay. Time Q (talk)

But please remember that Featured Images are not for us editors of this wiki, but rather for the readers. They probably have never seen this picture, and thus would not be "bored" if it was featured on the Main Page. Time Q (talk)

I thought this picture was terrible from the very moment I first saw it. This should not go on the main page of the wiki. - Zafum (talk)

I thought this picture was cool from the very moment I first saw it. This should go on the main page of the wiki. :P Time Q (talk)

1. Vini64 (talk) It can be a little outdated, but it's kinda a rare picture. Readers probably have never seen it.
2. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! Different, probably in a good way or bad way, who knows? Zero signing out.
3. Fawfulfury65 (talk) I have never seen this picture before but I like it!
4. Prince Boo (talk) It has boo in it so it is good
5. Pixlfreak (talk) i see baby mario!!

Oppose

1. Time Q (talk): Cool picture, but unfortunately, low quality.
2. McQueenMario (talk): Just golf, nothing special.
3. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk): Extremely low quality. It looks like it's made out of fabric.
4. Zafum (talk) - I agree that it's just too low quality, but why would anyone think it looks like fabric?
5. Timmy Tim (talk) Good scenario, but bad quality and the characters look weird.
6. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) I like the scenario, but I don't think it should be placed on the main page because of its very low quality.
7. LeftyGreenMario (talk) Great picture, but it's too dark and "fabricy"
8. Gamefreak75 (talk) Good picture, but the bad quality kinds ruins the feel.
9. strange.....Lu-igi board 05:13, 3 October 2009 (EDT)
10. Karinmij (talk) Wario looks so weird I think
11. Baby Mario Bloops (talk) Some things I saw when I enlarged it...Wario's face is too weird, the left wall of the picture is all bunched up, it is very blurry, and so on and so on. Maybe a better version of it would be an FI, but not this one.
12. Shyster66 (talk) This picture isn't intresting to look at.
13. Pie Shroom (talk) Per all.
14. Dry Luigi (talk) Per all.
15. Marioguy1 (talk) - I think the person drawing this forgot how to draw faces temporarily 'cause these faces are horrible!

Zafum: It does look like it. Have a close look. Time Q (talk)

I am Zero! Zafum, I thought you retired because you weren't here for a long period of time. Zero signing out. Zero777 (talk)

Well, I will at least come around once in a while. - Zafum (talk)

I would support this picture if it had way, way, way, waaay better quality, didn't have those ugly lines going through it that make it look like fabric (really noticeable in the sky) and Baby Mario didn't look like he's squeezed in. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) P.S. This is like my second oppose but I'm not allowed to oppose more than once, so yeah.

1. Zero777 (talk) I am Zero! This picture I like and it's funny. This picture tells a lot, though it shows little. I thought to myself if the other Mario party pic. is going well and will most likely pass, why not this one. This scene sort of look like it came out of a movie, which movie I'm not sure. Zero signing out.
2. Shyster66 (talk) Yeah, I like this picture, very funny.
3. Booman (talk) Wario is going to get owned
4. Baby Mario Bloops (talk) Very great and very funny at the same time! (Look at Yoshi, one of the best LOL moment)
5. Karinmij (talk) I'll support.
6. Time Q (talk): Good one. I wonder why there's no one complaining yet how strange the characters look...
7. Monteyaga (talk): This is an EPIC pic. And t is funny. Has my vote.
8. Platitudinous (talk) AWESOME! Yoshi fell LOL. :)
9. Vini64 (talk) Yoshi is... gah, never mind... I'll support it ;D!
10. Gamefreak75 (talk) Definitely. Picture is both hilarious and shows that Wario owns.
11. Lemmy Koopa Fan (talk) Even if it doesn't exactly have the best quality in the world, it is funny and shows alot, which is good enough to get my vote.
12. Dry Luigi (talk) Great pic and per Lemmy Koopa Fan.
13. Dark Bowser (talk) Very funny and its got my support!
14. Pixlfreak (talk) I've never actually seen it before!! it's funny!!

1. Lu-igi board (talk) ewwwww...... very ugly picture....
2. Fawfulfury65 (talk) Per Lu-igi Board. It's not very colorful. Also, what's with Yoshi?!
3. Timmy Tim (talk) I'm sick of MP images.
4. Zafum (talk) All of the characters are either doing something extremely boring, or they look weird. And the mountain that their standing on looks just like the n64 graphics, which not only looks bad, but makes too much unneeded contrast. Per Fawfulfury and Lu-igi board.

Comment

You could almost write a philosophical essay about this picture. It shows how if a conflict is settled, another one will immediately arise, symbolized by the allied Bob-ombs that attack the persons, who helped them forge their alliance in the first place. Apart from the philosophical aspect I must say that this picture is decently composed, even if Peach seems a bit too helpless and weak to me, and Yoshi in this pic somehow reminds me of yoghurt (I have absolutely no idea why). I will perhaps vote later when I thought about it long enough. - Edofenrir (talk)

Platitudinous (talk) It looks to me like Peach is using her powers from SMRPG.

I'd like to see that she's using her frying pan from SMRPG (I think she's just praying). - Edofenrir (talk) 14:24, 4 October 2009 (EDT)
