Zelda Wiki:Featured Picture Nomination

= Current nominations =

Scenery from Skyward Sword
Nintendo has described the graphical style of this game as "a painting coming to life", and who could argue? With its great quality and breathtaking view, this image deserves to be featured. 23:35, 22 August 2010


 * 1) I support it. It'sa really good image to add and I like the art style.  14:53, 5 September 2010 (EDT)
 * 2) Ooh... pretty. Nice, well-drawn image. I think it seems to do a nice job of representing what we've seen of Skyward Sword thus far. However, the image is somewhat bland, and seems to not have any actual focus. The reason I'm OK with that is because there are no other featured images of just scenery.  19:21, September 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) I like how the picture is high quality. This deserves to be featured! --Zeldarules8 19:56, 28 December 2010 (EST)
 * 4) Yes. Yes.  Like Alter stated, we don't have a lot of pictures of just scenery.  It's very high quality, and reminds us of the joy of Skyward Sword we are to enjoy.  This deserves to be featured!  PreludeOfHeroes 21:47, 25 January 2011 (EST)


 * 1) I have a strong feeling this image is going to end up being "one in a series", given the Cezanne-like landscape artstyle of Skyward Sword. It wouldn't make any sense if this was the only landscape-like piece Nintendo cranks out in the Skyward Sword era because the image work is so brilliant. I'd just rather wait and see than to vote now. 19:06, 3 January 2011 (EST)


 * 1) This image just makes me think about how much I am going to LOVE Skyward Sword. It's a pleasant reminder each time :D  (Unsigned vote - see rule 6 above)
 * 2) I am looking forward to september for skywar sword's release and think that this should be featured.  (Unsigned vote - see rule 6 above)

Mirror of Twilight (Front)
The Mirror of Twilight is a very beautiful work of art that is rarely seen in the series. Vastly unique. But the problem is that arguably the back side of the Mirror is just as beautiful and is even more obscure and rarely appreciated. It's appearance is so intricate and alluring on either side that you can't stop staring at it. (Now we now why Yeta couldn't stop looking at it!) So I'm choosing to nominate them both at once. This one is for the front of the mirror. Scroll down the page for the back! GO VOTE! 01:51, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

Mirror of Twilight (Back)
The Mirror of Twilight is a very beautiful work of art yes. Vastly unique. But the back side of the Mirror is just as beautiful and is even more obscure and rarely appreciated. Very few people stop to take a look at the back of the mirror. It is surprisingly intricate and detailed. So I'm choosing to nominate them both at once. This one is for the back of the mirror. Scroll up the page for the front! GO VOTE! 01:51, March 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * 1) The quality here is horrible, and really, who wants to have the back of something as featured? —★ Chip  200  14:57, 11 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) This image looks spectacular in its thumbnail version, however upon viewing full size... not so much. Not only does the resolution seem to be low, but the transparency is choppy and not to mention the black lines are rather obnoxious looking. It's a beautiful image, just not feature quality. 23:04, June 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * 1) I'd nominate this one because it's just so cool, but my only critique would be that it is a bit blurry at full size. I believe that making this image smaller (maybe around 20% smaller) may fix a large percentage of the blurriness; across the wiki in thumbnail form, this image looks highly awe-inspiring! 09:16, 6 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) Ditto Cip's sentiments. I love how this is one of those things you don't see often but just looks so cool... if the blurriness can be dealt with, it will have my vote. 12:52, 11 May 2011 (EDT)

Link VS. Ganon(dorf)
An accurate and dazzling depiction of what is perhaps one of the most iconic and epic battles in the Legend of Zelda series, this image truly exhibits the extent of Ganon(dorf)'s awe-inspiring, god-given power and might as well as the ferocity of the battle between Good and Evil, Courage and Power. The size of the image is decent great and the quality is excellent. Since we already have a featured picture of the battle between Link and Dark Link, it would seem appropriate to have one of Link and Ganon as well!

By the way, I think this image puts the Link vs. Dark Link artwork to shame! 15:27, 22 April 2011 (EDT)


 * 1) I love this piece. It shows the epicness that the entire Ocarina of Time game had, and reminds me of the joy I had while playing it.  It's the epic battle that I think symbolizes Zelda.  The quality of the image is high and I think it was redone excellently for the OOT3DS remake. LegendOfHyrule31 13:37, 25 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) I just recently looked at it full-resolution to see what I thought of the details on this image. They're amazing. Ganondorf's eyes... intense!! And the smudged colors of his armor... this image needs to be viewed at full size to be appreciated the way it deserves to be. It's totally romanticized and I love it. Feature! 18:28, 25 April 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) My god, this image is just massive. It very accurately depicts the final battle with Ganondorf, which is definitely the high point of the game. I have no idea why this wasn't featured previously. Gets my vote for sure. 02:03, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) This artwork is perhaps one one the best artwork released for the game. Ganondorf's red eyes, and the glowing floor only make the experience greater! —★ Chip  200  15:21, 9 May 2011 (EDT)


 * 1) The quality is low, and it barely shows Link's face. --Masked Kafei 07:23, 3 May 2011 (EDT)

Link, Navi and Sheik
A beautiful piece of high-resolution art depicting the teaching of the Serenade of Water in the Ice Cavern, this artwork from Ocarina of Time 3D captures the essence Link and Sheik being engrossed in the music. The crystalline background of the cavern, along with Navi's blue light, complement the artwork and provide a powerful sense of atmosphere. This piece embodies much of the mystique that Ocarina of Time possesses. Miles ( talk)  16:59, 8 May 2011 (EDT)


 * 1) Great quality and I'm loving the colors. It reminds me of all those cutscenes where Link and Sheik would play their instruments together...one of my favorite parts in the game! Definitely needs to be featured. :D Dany36 21:19, 10 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) This artwork is amazing. The stars in the night sky and the crystals really make this art stand out. 16:50, 18 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) Quality is amazing, and this is definitely one of the best pics I've scene on this site. It stands out a lot. This is a very good picture to be featured. Danton12396 19:48, 30 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) I like this picture; it has good quality and really gives an essence of the beautiful music. The crystals are beautiful, and it shows how Link learned many songs, a very important part of the game.  The details are also good, right down to the veins in Navi's wings.  Overall, it's a great image that induces nostalgia. TriforcePieceofWisdom 13:08, 22 June 2011 (EDT)
 * 5) I love this, the res is large enough that when you click on full size you can see the image in crisp detail, and the colors are very vivid and refreshing. Absolutely awesome! 23:01, June 30, 2011 (UTC)

Treasure Sphere
Came across this ages ago, and I've finally got around to nominating it. Sure, it's a minor item gameplay-wise, and only appeared in one game in the series. But does that matter? I never imagined we'd have such a high-quality image of a treasure sphere; I love how it's got the little puff of smoke, and the colour is so eye-popping. I think it's fun and unique, anyone agree? 15:36, 11 May 2011 (EDT)


 * 1) Brilliant quality and an interesting image. Featuring this image would be a good way to introduce people to an obscure item that they have not seen before. The curling smoke just makes it that much more interesting--Fierce diety 00:23, 12 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) Amazing coloring. Not only is the item itself pretty cool, but I've always thought those treasure orbs looked epic. The smoke at the bottom gives it a very mysterious vibe, too. The Reject Phoenix 03:59, 12 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) What an excellent render! I could stare at this image for hours on end... If only we could have a looping animated image of this quality that would feature all the colors! A man can always dream! What an amazing picture, though. Definitely has my vote. 08:17, 12 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) Whoa, that looks awesome. The smoke looks like a Floormaster a bit AND my favorite color is purple. I never knew they were called Treasure Spheres either. Epicly voting for this.- TriforceSlash 18:19, 12 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 5) Sheesh, man. I always see these and I have to slash at these whenever they appear from any enemies, it's just so surreal and beautiful looking, plus, you really and honestly don't know what will appear in the mystical/mysterious sphere, really. I vote for this, very, very much.  Hylian Historic  14:48, 3 June 2011 (EDT)


 * 1) The quality isn't the best, and I think the picture is kind of odd. The smoke seems to have been taken from another shot. TriforcePieceofWisdom 13:04, 22 June 2011 (EDT)
