Zelda Wiki:Featured Picture Nomination

= Current nominations =

The Wind Waker Japanese boxart
This image really shows the high quality of Nintendo's Japanese video game boxart. This boxart is much more detailed than the American and European boxarts, and includes iridescent foil for a colorful effect. The newsprint-like effect on Link is pretty nice.

 * 1) The iridescent effect is quite striking, and as a whole is visually intriguing.  Miles ( talk)   16:33, 23 January 2012 (EST)

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)
 * 5) I quite enjoy this image. Miyamoto-San's choice of graphic style is of course well made. The nostalgia I felt two years ago when watching 2 years ago are all the more real when I stare into this wonderful image. Steahl 07:59, 10 November 2011 (EST)
 * 6) (I love the style of skyward sword and it is a great representation of the new wave of nintendo games.  This also reminds me of the W.W. storyline as I am playing, All the same it is a great image and a great way to bring zelda into the relm of the 21st century Gannondorf111 08:08, 21 November 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)


 * 1) This image is wonderful. it really displays the great detail that went into Twilight Princess. it's a fairly high-quality image and does include one of the Legend of Zelda series basic icons, the legendary Triforce. Vulpix001  19:46, 20 July 2011 (EDT)


 * 1) This is image is supported by me because i think the Mirror Of Twilight is a very cool item also if you look at this picture it gives off kind of a rotating illusion.Sammoldy  04:20, 3 November 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) This is a very beautiful image, and it is not blurry or dark. Also, the main focus of the picture is the mirror, because there is no background to get in the way. --12:36, 23 October 2011 (EDT)Person777 12:36, 23 October 2011 (EDT)


 * 1) This image seems to be of mediocre quality. While viewing the image in full size, i noticed that the black line around the edge of the mirror seemed jagged in some places. I also noticed this with the edges of the image itself. In addition, the entire image appears a little blurry, as if it was scaled up from a smaller image. 13:13, 27 August 2011 (EDT)
 * Newer version is much better 21:46, 15 December 2011 (EST)

Great Fairies from The Wind Waker
The simplicity and pastel color combinations of this image flow quite nicely and add to the mystique given by the Fairies' appearance. This image also features a stellar transparency! 20:11, July 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * 1) This picture is very well put together and must have taken a while to compose, it really shows off the great colours the fairies have. Broojo02 12:05, 3 September 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) I agree. The colors of the Great Fairies are amazing and interesting. I believe this beats everything else we have currently.  17:19, 5 September 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) Out of all the stellar pictures available of the Figurines in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, this one takes the cake.  18:13, 5 September 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) I'll echo Hylian King's sentiments, here. All the figurine images are spectacular, but this one, with its gradient colors, really reflects the "eye candy" art style of The Wind Waker. I would love for it to be on the front page for more people to enjoy. 19:03, 5 September 2011 (EDT)
 * 5) I really enjoy the colors in this picture and I could stare at it for hours I thnk it deserves to be featured Sammoldy  03:02, 10 November 2011 (EST)
 * 6) This image is exploding with life. The 8 pairs of arms give the piece some motion and complexity which is offset by the simple colors and beautiful lighting. If you've ever collected figurines in The Wind Waker, you'll find that many of them feel dead and unrewarding. However, this piece is worth the effort required to obtain it.  18:54, 15 December 2011 (EST)

Oshus telling of Bellum's background
This picture is very interesting as it is one of the stroybook like scenes from Phantom Hourglasshese kind of scenes are rarely seen so I think this picture deserves to be featured. VOTE!!! Sammoldy 04:20, 3 November 2011 (EDT)


 * 1) Though small, this image still pulls off the look of a traditionally made collage flawlessly, with crisp colours and textures which really gives off that traditional storybook feel, brimming with legends to tell. Even with the restraints of the small "canvas", every detail has been carefully added and placed; you can still tell what story is being told. With an artistic flair, you cannot deny, this charming piece deserves a feature. Ochibi 06:16, 7 November 2011 (EST)


 * 1) It's a good picture—one that certainly speaks volumes—but I don't think it's so special as to be worth featuring. Generally, when I look at any of our current featured pictures, I could stare at them for hours on end. This one is not particularly dazzling; one quick glance and you've seen all there is to see. 07:25, 8 November 2011 (EST)
 * 2) I have to agree with Hylian King here. I do not see anything particularly iconic about this image. It seems the moment is not very memorable compared to other events in the game. There are better images represented in the same style as this one, too. It is not a bad image, but it is not Featured Picture worthy either. Noble Wrot 12:51, 17 December 2011 (EST)

The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Artwork
This image is downright amazing. It is very colorful with every incarnation of Link to date. Nintendo is even distributing the image as a poster through Club Nintendo. After an amazing year for the Zelda series, I believe we should recognize the 25 anniversary of Zelda by featuring this great tribute to one of Nintendo's greatest series. Noble Wrot 12:51, 17 December 2011 (EST)


 * 1) This picture makes me feel happy and pruod to play a Zelda game. Before 2011 I did not know that the first Zelda game was relesed in 1986 and I did not know that the geatest game of all time was a Zelda game. 21:10, 14 Februay 2012 (EST)
 * 2) This amazing picture speaks volumes about Nintendo's dedication to the series and its fans. If this picture gets featured—or should I say when it gets featured—it will be, hands down, one of this wiki's best. 13:32, 17 December 2011 (EST)
 * 3) This year has been a fantastic year for all Zelda fans: we got four games, a chance to hear a symphony performing some of the best Zelda music, and tons of other miscellaneous goodies. What better way to remember 2011 than by having this image remind us of the great tribute Nintendo gave to the series? Support! Dany36 15:30, 17 December 2011 (EST)
 * 4) I'm very much a fan of this image. It captures just about every iteration of Link through the ages, including all five of Link's forms in Majora's mask and his wolf form in Twilight Princess. The image itself is very detailed, with excellent shading and a hand-drawn effect. Somebody at Nintendo put a great deal of work in this image. I'd be proud to have this on the front page. Rdnckj258 10:38, 21 December 2011 (EST)
 * 5) This image is a detailed yet simple piece of artwork that brings back a ton of great memories and really shows how far the series has come in the past nearly-26 years. Again, it may be pretty simple, but it really did the 25th anniversary justice. EzloSpirit 18:28, 7 January 2012 (EST)
 * 6) The best part of this image is all the little things you notice as you look at it, such as the three different types of Fairy used in the series all making an appearance, and the various items used by each Link. Surely it should be featured by default! Fizzle 16:58, 9 January 2012 (EST)
 * 7) In terms of representing and paying tribute to the entire Zelda series this piece of artwork is literally perfect. To the average viewer this would be seen as an excellent piece of artwork, but to a true lover of the Zelda franchise it means a lot more. It's 25 years, sixteen dearly loved games and countless happy memories represented in one picture. This piece defines the term 'fan-service', I think Nintendo hoped to bring a big smile to the face of every true Zelda fan with this picture, and in my opinion they succeeded. Lord Linebeck 10:16 12 January 2012 (GMT)
 * 8) This picture is unbelievable. The detail of the various Links is beautiful, and Fierce Deity Link is epic. This should already be featured, in my opinion.TriforceSlash 18:54, 16 January 2012 (EST)
 * 9) This image is a wonderful compilation of the various Links across time and space. It certainly merits featured status. Miles ( talk)   16:33, 23 January 2012 (EST)
 * 10) I definitely support this image. Its massive size really shows the detail that went into each illustration of Link. Whoever painted this (I have heard that it was hand-painted) painted each Link in a similar style, yet each Link still looks different from each other. Wwtoonlinkfan 00:48, 6 February 2012 (EST)
