Currently nominated

Phantom Hourglass scene

I think we definitely need a featured image from the most recent game in the series, and I really like this one. Having said that, I couldn't decide which version to choose, so I've decided to leave the decision up to you! When voting in support, please start votes with A: or B: to indicate your preference.

  1. A. I think it's a pretty cool picture and there hasn't been too many featured PH nominations yet!ZeldaGirl96 20:06, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
  2. A: I gotta admit, I like this image a lot. User:Ando/sig 21:27, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
  3. I love option A, its faded borders zooming in on the main characters is simply epic. User:MARKOL/sig 17:30, 16 August 2008 (EST)
  4. A, I have only played Phantom Hourglass at Best Buy but I think we need a picture from the most recennt game. I also appreciate that Link's shield has the crayfish/lobster on it like his pajamas in Wind Waker.CoreyPotter 19:58, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
  5. Option B would be a good picture to display. The cover of PH is quite nice, giving a good first impression of what to expect of the game. Angmar 07:10, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
  6. Option A is really awesome. I was gonna accept with Angmar but then again out of five people only one person chose for the other picture (sorry Angmar). That is why I checked Option A and it did look much better. That is why I vote for Option A. Akki 18:05, 6 September 2008 (UTC)


Opposition


Deku Royal Family

File:Deku Royal.png

A nicely sized picture of the Dekus, which I think are probably the most interesting race in the Zelda world. It really shows the artistic style of Majora's Mask.Corey Lord of Tacos! 19:46, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

  1. A very interesting nomination! I have to agree, I would like to see this featured. Thus far, we have no pictures depicting Deku Scrubs primarially, and the only picture that does feature one is Deku Link, hiding in the background for the MM picture. So, first vote! --Felicia's Champion 23:57, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
  2. Great nomination! I've always liked these characters and this image, and with a some work by MARKOL and myself, it's now of the best quality possible! User:Adamcox82/sig 11:30, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
  3. I've always loved this image. It's about time it got nominated. User:Twili Goddess/sig
  4. Deku Scrubs have always been cool in my book and Majora's Mask really did good for them, giving them a castle and royal family and even letting you play as one, so this gets my vote --Kresh64 19:06, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
  5. Deku Scrubs are cute and one of my favorite enemys.--Article and Picture Voter 01:19, 6 October 2008 (UTC)


Opposition
  1. I don't really see what is so impressive about this image. It is rather bland and not particularly interesting. It doesn't really stand out among the vast number of images on this site. It is no more interesting than most others. Too simple to be featured.User:Mjr162006/sig 03:17, September 27, 2008 (UTC)
  2. This picture does show anything particuarly interesting. It does not show you you something important. The image leaves something to be desired, and is also simple to the point where the larger portion of the pictures on this web address are more interesting. the flaws are too great for it to be featured.Kingbulbin 11:41, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Faron

File:Faron.png

This is the Light Spirit Faron. This a great image. This was made transparent by MARKOL. Excellent work.User:Mjr162006/sig 01:12, October 3, 2008 (UTC)

Important Notice:
This nomination is an experiment in a new policy. It is intended as a replacement for the existing image Faron Art.jpg. If this image is voted in, the old one will automatically be disqualified and the new one will replace it on every single page that the old one was on, save for this one.

To truly see this image in its full glory, click on it to go to its page. It is much better there than this tiny preview here is.

Support
  1. Contrary to my original, withdrawn vote, after looking at the enlarged version of this picture I find that this picture is a very beautiful picture, much better than the original. The small version shown here may look very average, but it's anything but once clicked on. --Felicia's Champion 11:44, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Opposition

Death Sword

Though this picture has reached the three opposition votes required for failure, two new policies are being voted on that may change how to fail nominees. Therefore, this will stay until the votes on the policies end. Be sure to cast your votes here and here.

File:Deathswordrender.png

This is the miniboss Death Sword. This a great image, made transparent by MARKOL. Awesome work. Much easier to see than the old version that is currently featured.User:Mjr162006/sig 01:12, October 3, 2008 (UTC)

  1. You can't see it as good without the background.--Article and Picture Voter 01:19, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
  2. The background on the old picture was half the reason I liked the old picture. With this one, half the reason I liked it is gone. That's why my vote is here, and not in "support". --Felicia's Champion 09:24, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
  3. a trasparent charater on no background is inpossible to see.Dragonstetraforce 20:37, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
