====Support====
#{{User|YellowYoshi127}} Yoshi! I know its a screen shot an all but its just great with good lighting and fun to look at.
#{{User|Timmy Tim}} Let's see how this turns out...
#{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} This is a screenshot? It looks like artwork. And this picture is also very unique. i've never seen it before.
#{{User|lpsc00l}} Awww! I like it.It's cute. Plus I never saw it any where else!!!
#{{User|Tucayo}} - Nice image, like the reality of it
#{{User|Superstar Daisy}} Per Lemmy.
#{{User|Zero777}} I am Zero! Great resolution and overall a great picture to be in the main page. Zero signing out.
#this image is full of power! [[User:Lu-igi board|Lu-igi board]] 04:30, 27 August 2009 (EDT)
#{{User|Marioguy1}} - There is no blank space or lack of characters...
#{{User|Karinmij}} Though I agree with Time Q that it's a low quality picture (when enlarged), I really like it so I support this one :)
#{{User|Pixlfreak}} 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
#{{User|Baby Mario Bloops}} I think it looks great! Why not? It looks better than some past featured images.
#{{User|Booman}} Per Bloops.
#{{User|Platitudinous}} At first glance, the Minis looked strangely realistic.
#{{User|LeftyGreenMario}} Low Quality, but rare.
#{{user|8-bits}} love pic not a big fan of the game though
#{{User|DaisyRox02}} This pic reminds me of the game, epic and fun!
#{{User|Lolcats124}} Cool! The mini Mario looks like a Lego but who cares? Realistic pics are cool! ;-)
#{{user|baby DK}} cool
#{{user|MATEOELBACAN}} This is a nice 3D-like picture and has a normal quality
#{{User|Koopa Troopa the fourth}} Unique pic and cool.
#{{User|Vini64}} Yay, Mini-DK is blind!
 
====Oppose====
#{{User|Time Q}}: Low quality. Even in its [http://www.mariowiki.com/images/1/1f/MarioandDKMinis.PNG standard size], which is quite small, it's pixelated.
#{{User|McQueenMario}} Per Time Q.
#{{User|Fawfulfury65}} Just plain boring. This shouldn't be a FI! Also, per Time Q.
#{{User|Paper Yoshi}} Per Time Q.
#{{User|Dry Luigi}} Per Time Q
#{{User|Castle Toad}} 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'''"
#{{User|Toadster_04}} Per all. The quality is just too poor.
#{{User|Twentytwofiftyseven}} Small, blurry, and uninteresting image.
#{{User|Shyster66}} Time Q's right.
#{{User|Dark Bowser}} Yup... Per Time Q.....
#{{User|Zafum}} - Although images have passed before this with resolutions almost as low as this one, this picture is very boring.
#{{User|Tonym101101}} Per Time Q and I just don't think it should be featured.
#{{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} I had second thoughts about this picture. Think about placing this on the main page. It shouldn't go on the main page.
#{{User|Glitchman}} Frankly, a very lame image.
#{{User|Cacciaguida}} Low quality, and boring.
 
====Comments====
{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} 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. {{User|Time Q}}
{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} Well,I admit it's kind of small. But I'm still not removing my vote.
 
Before you keep supporting this image, '''please click [http://www.mariowiki.com/images/1/1f/MarioandDKMinis.PNG 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. {{User|Time Q}}
 
Yeeeaaahhh...? It doesn't really seem THAT small. I ''still'' think it's featured image worthy. {{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}}
 
Yoshi! Time Q, main page resolution is lower than this one. {{User|YellowYoshi127}}
: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. {{User|Time Q}}
 
Great... looks like this is going to be our first low-quality FI... oh well :( {{User|Time Q}}

*'''Subject:''' Artwork from ''[[Super Mario World]]'' depicting [[Mario]], [[Goomba]]s, [[Wiggler]]s and a [[Bob-omb]] in the [[Forest of Illusion]]<br>
*'''Nominated by:''' {{User|Time Q}}
 
====Support====
#{{User|Time Q}}: It's a quite funny scene in a likeable comic style from an excellent ''Mario'' game :P
#{{User|Timmy Tim}} Well, we currently have one that's similar, but you do have a point.
#{{User|lpsc00l}} Ehh, What the heck! I'll support it.
#{{User|Marioguy1}} - It accurately shows the many different varieties of foes available in that certain level of Super Mario World, no more, no less.
#{{User|Lu-igi board}} wow this is just epic!
#{{User|Pie Shroom}} It's awesome.
#{{User|Vini64}} Every Super Mario World artwork must be featured :D!
#{{user|Tucayo}} Simply LOVE SMW artwork
#{{user|Pixlfreak}} I love comical moments like this!!
#{{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} Liked the game, liked the picture
#{{User|Shyster66}} Another comical moment
#{{User|Dark Bowser}} I like Mario's expression in this picture!
#{{User|era64}}I like SMW, artworks of this game. SMW doesn't have Wigglers and Bubbles simultaneously, but this is nothing.
#{{user|MATEOELBACAN}} A really funny picture, Mario's face make me laugh xD
#{{User|Glitchman}} Heck yes!
 
====Oppose====
#{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} Alright this has been here for too long and it's become boring.
#{{User|McQueenMario}} I changed my mind. This is kinda funny, but per Lemmy Koopa Fan.
#{{User|Zafum}} - This picture looks sort of... ''cut off'', and it's boring as well. Just another all-round bad picture.
#{{User|LeftyGreenMario}} - Nice too look at once in a while, but it's a boring picture.
#{{User|Karinmij}} Per LeftyGreenMario.
#{{User|Cacciaguida}} Not boring, it's just bland.
 
====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 {{User|Time Q}}
 
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. {{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} P.S. When it comes to images like these, I'm slightly impatient.
:I guess that's okay. {{User|Time Q}}
: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. {{User|Time Q}}
: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. - {{User|Zafum}}
::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 {{User|Time Q}}

===Koopalings NSMBW===
[[Image:NSMBwii koopalings.jpg|right|thumb]]
*'''Subject:''' [[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]] Koopaling design.
*'''Nominated By:''' {{User|Baby Mario Bloops}}
 
====Support====
#{{User|Baby Mario Bloops}} - Well, lets hope that this passes (third times the charm)! I said that if there was a english one, it would be FI material, and here it is!! Very excellent artwork of the 7 Koopalings in the new game, New Super Mario Bros. Wii.
#{{User|Vini64}} Per Bloops.
#{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} Now ''this'' one is better than the low quality one with (shudder) Bowser Jr. in it.
#{{User|Dimenshi Knight}} It is actually not bad. Dimenshi Knight can really see it on the main page...He definitely agrees with this!!!
#{{User|YellowYoshi127}} Yoshi! Those who moan about a white back, the Pocket Chomp had one and that got featured. I personally love this image.
#{{User|DiddyKing}} Per YellowYoshi127.
#{{User|Chamchir9482}} Per all.
#{{User|Bowser the Second}} Per all.
#{{User|Platitudinous}} Per Al.
#{{User|Tonym101101}} I can't wait for this game to come out, I want some picture from the game to be featured.
#{{User|McQueenMario}} Yes, I'm supporting. The reason is because...well, I put it this way, ''who wasn't exited when they saw this pic!''
#{{User|Karinmij}} Each time I look at this picture, I like it more and more so I wouldn't mind this becoming a FI :)
#{{User|ssbbchamp487}} unlike LeftyGreenMario, i like how they changed iggy's hair. i dont know why but it looks better.
#{{User|Lemmy Koopa617}} I like this image and it seems to be in pretty good quality, so why not?
#{{user|MATEOELBACAN}} The Koopalings were absent for a long time...and this excellent image is perfect for it's return!
#{{user|baby dk}} asome thay are hard to fight.
#{{user| funky dad}} thay look cool
#[[User:ForeverDaisy09|FD09]] Unlike other white bg arts, this one is cool because it's reminiscent of their original appearance art.
#{{User|Koopa Troopa the fourth}} Per Lemmy Koopa Fan.
#{{User|Fawfulfury65}} Meh, now that I look at it, its pretty cool, and I love the Koopalings. Except Nintendo made Iggy look stupid...
#{{User|Koopapoopa}} No action? Iggy must be aiming that thing at SOMEBODY! Plus, I love Roy, Larry, Morton, and Ludwig's expressions. This really is a picture that shows the Koopalings' true selves.
 
====Oppose====
#{{User|Time Q}}: Good quality, but apart from that I see absolutely nothing that makes this image FI-worthy. It's just a compilation of some characters in front of a white background... boring.
#{{User|Shyster66}} I'm tired of all the Kooplings Featured Images.
#I hate it. [[User:Lu-igi board|Lu-igi board]] 15:12, 22 October 2009 (EDT)
#{{User|Pie Shroom}} Per Time Q ('cept for the white background sucks part).
#{{User|Marioguy1}} - The background just doesn't work
#{{User|Zero777}} I am Zero! Though having good quality it's just a blank picture with the koopalings pasted on there. '''This image will do better as a featured article on the koopalings.''' Zero signing out.
#{{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} This picture is very boring to look at and if it's single artwork placed together, of course it would have good quality!
#{{User|LeftyGreenMario}} Boring picture. I don't like it how they (Nintendo) changed Iggy's hairstyle; it now looks like an unripened banana! Why does Lemmy have a ponytail? Why is Nintendo so twisted when changing the Koopalings? And don't compare this image to the Pocket Chomp one. The Pocket Chomp has action, but this image is just a bunch of Koopalings standing there.
#{{User|Glitchman}} If we let this be a featured image, then every other crappy image will be next.
#{{User|MrDrProfSock}} It's high quality, but the background is 100% tedious.
#{{user|Tucayo}} - boring......
 
====Comments====
I think that we should get rid of the other one on this page, so that they don't interfere with the nomiations... {{User|Baby Mario Bloops}}
:It will be removed tomorrow anyway, since there are way more opposers than supporters. {{User|Time Q}}
::{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} Uhh.. Shyster66, there's only been one FI with the Koopalings in it. i'm not trying to make you remove your vote but still.
 
yes people the koopalings are in 3D. now that I've made this clear, please stop submiting terrible koopaling pictures. thankyou. [[User:Lu-igi board|Lu-igi board]] 15:15, 22 October 2009 (EDT)
:::Who got rid of Dimenshi Knight's vote?!? {{User|Dimenshi Knight}}
::Whoops, that might have been me, i tried to revert my mistake on the magazine one by replacing it with this one then realizing that it was at the bottom already. SOrry :( {{User|YellowYoshi127}}
:::I re-added the vote. {{User|Time Q}}
This is a great picture and I voted for it but... you should remove the English in the title. There is no text so it could be Spanish or Japaneses or Korean. Just saying. No I'm not forcing you. {{User|Chamchir9482}}
 
The image is now high resolution. [[User:ForeverDaisy09|FD09]]
 
B.M.B., I think u should put this image on agien once the game comes out. Or find a 3-D Koopalings picture with a backround. {{User|Nihaho13}}
 
I am Zero! I don't get it, why do a lot of people support this one but a lot of people opposed the NSMBW one with the white background? Like Zafum said, it's just an artwork randomly pated on a white background. Zero signing out. {{User|Zero777}}
 
::Glitchman, may I just state as a high opinionated statement, but, we already had crappy images pass as FI's! This one is a lot better than others we even featured! {{User|Baby Mario Bloops}}
 
:::Everyone this is complaining about the white background, we have some FI's that also have white backgrounds! This includes the Pocket chomp and Goomba Storm. And don't say that is because their is no action, but this has as much action as the other ones!!! {{unsigned|Baby Mario Bloops}}

#{{User|Vini64}} 4535 x 3000... That's probably the biggest image in the MarioWiki. Perfect quality and it's also a funny scene.
#{{User|Fawfulfury65}} I don't know why but I really like this picture. And it is big!
#{{User|Zero777}} I am Zero! Well even though the skis are blurred, DK looks weird with his teeth, and Mario's sideburns are a lighter shade of color, I still like this picture. Zero signing out.
#{{User|GalacticPetey}} This is why we have featured images!
#{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} Poor Luigi XD.
#{{User|Baby Mario Bloops}} Oh, so now everyone is voting for a picture with a white background and not mine, now that is what I call cheap (pouts). Anyways, this picture is wonderful! White background or not, this is FI material (and so are some other white background pics...).
#{{User|Gamefreak75}} Great pic and pretty good graphics/quality. XD Luigi
#{{User|Koopa Troopa the fourth}} It's a nice pic. luigi XD
#[[User:Lu-igi board|Lu-igi board]] quite nice. not the best pic, but good.
#{{User|LeftyGreenMario}} I like this picture. Unlike some other white background ones (namely the Koopaling one), this picture is funny (poor Luigi) and has action.
#{{user|Tucayo}} - Nice image
#{{User|PT PRANA}} Cool pic! It looks like something out of Mario+Sonic at the winter olympics.
#{{User|Pie Shroom}} Looks cool.
 
====Oppose====
#{{User|Glitchman}} A strange image from a strange game, plus someone needs to reupload it, it's too big.
#{{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} This is by no means a bad picture (I actually like it) but I think it would do much better if it had a scenery. Plus, it makes Luigi look strange...again.
#{{User|Marioguy1}} - No background, yuck :P
#{{User|tonym101101}} The image at full size looks good but I don't think it should be featured.

#{{User|Fawfulfury65}} I really like this picture because its colorful and shows all the different colors of Yoshis. The Black Yoshi looks cool. =D Its big too!
#{{User|Zero777}} I am Zero! Not bad of an image, but I'm not sure if this was already nominated or if it was already a featured image, but good image. Zero signing out.
#{{User|Baby Mario Bloops}} I love this picture!!! Same thing about the MP4 Background...and this has everyone's favorite Dinosaur in it...Yoshi! The group pic is high quality, with each Yoshi in a different pose (FI material!!).
#{{User|Gamefreak75}} Colorful and funny. Great pic.
#{{User|Karinmij}} Per Fawfulfury65 and Gamefreak75.
#{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} Per all.
#{{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} Like the colors used, but Yoshi sucks IMHO. Well, votes aren't based on the character anyway, soooo...
#{{User|Vini64}} YOSHI!x(the number of Yoshis in this picture)

#{{User|tonym101101}} It's really colorful! I love it!
#{{User|Pie Shroom}} Per FF65.
#{{User|Starshroomario}}its pretty good
#{{User|4DJONG}} Yoshi Yoshi The pic is very colorful and perfectly depicts the Yoshis very well.
 
====Oppose====
#[[User:Lu-igi board|Lu-igi board]] boring beyond words.
#{{User|LeftyGreenMario}}: High quality, but it's boring. Yoshi isn't my favorite dinosaur/frog/lizard/chameleon either.
#{{User|Marioguy1}} - Why does nobody think of the word ''background''?
 
====Comments====
Okay, not to be mean, but FF65 and Zero777, this is just like the Koopaling picture; white background, character artwork just posted into one big image, and the fact that (again) has a white background!!!! Why support this if you won't support something that is the exact same thing as this image? {{User|Baby Mario Bloops}}
 
Yeah that's a good point. I didn't like the Koopalings picture because they are more spaced out there than in the Yoshi picture and it looks weird. And the Koopalings one wasn't as colorful too! That's all I can think of... {{User|Fawfulfury65}}
 
I just don't really know what to do. I like how cute to Yoshis look and all, but I don't like the Yoshi's Island DS art style. So I just won't vote for now. {{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} Update: I've decided.
:Well, LKF, if this would help, don't think about the game and stuff, look at the artwork, the creation (the space between artworks, the poses, etc.). If you don't like the artwork style, then that is pretty much a oppose vote, but this is your opinion. Also, FF65, I'm not mad or trying to force you to change your vote, just that I wanted some reason to why you opposed it (and they are colorful too! Look at the shells...). {{User|Baby Mario Bloops}}
 
This was already a FI,now I remenber it perfectly!,What shall we do? {{User|MATEOELBACAN}}
:If a picture was featured before, simply remove it. But this one [[MarioWiki:Featured Images/Archive|wasn't]]. {{User|Time Q}}
 
FI are the ones with the shine sprites in the corner of the page, right? {{User|Fawfulfury65}}
: They are Featured Articles, not Featured Images :) {{User|Karinmij}}

#{{user|Tucayo}} - I really like how this looks, its not small, it has good quality, etc
#{{User|Fawfulfury65}} Cool, very detailed.
#{{User|Lemmy Koopa Fan}} I like those reflections. They make it look like the artist spent HOURS doing this.
#{{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} It looks excellent. Complete with a background and those shiny reflections, it looks WAAAY better instead of those pieces of white toilet paper getting nominated right now.
#{{User|LeftyGreenMario}} I love this picture. The reflection effects are cool and detailed. Only if the picture was larger...
#{{User|Vini64}} TA DA DA DÃN! Metal Mario is the coolest power-up ever! I have a ''blooper'' series named ''Super Metal Mario'', but its on portuguese from Brazil language.
#[[User:Lu-igi board|Lu-igi board]] completely and impossibly epic.
#{{User|Reversinator}} You have to wonder how Mario feels when he's metalized.
#{{User|Zero777}} I am Zero! Not a bad image, very detailed. Even though this image is from SM64, but where is Metal Mario at? Zero signing out.
#{{User|Paper Yoshi}} Very detailed image. Also per LKF.
#{{User|Karinmij}} Per above.
#{{User|Platitudinous}} EXCELLENT!
#{{User|Baby Mario Bloops}} - That is the best picture that looks as though it has been water painted!!! The background kind-of looks like Luigi's Mansion...in a way.
#{{User|Marioguy1}} - Nice background :P
#{{User|Pie Shroom}}
 
====Oppose====
#{{User|Koopapoopa}} - What? I'm surprised fifty people haven't opposed already! Nice lighting, but it looks more ''Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess'' or ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' then ''Super Mario 64''.
#{{User|Time Q}}: I don't really like it either. Strange coloring.
#{{User|Redstar}} - Yeah, I dunno about this one. It just seems too drab and dark. Metal Mario is really lacking in official art, but that doesn't mean we should leap onto what little we have.
#{{User|Tonym101101}} Per all.
 
====Comments====
Which level is Mario in? {{User|Reversinator}}
:Great question. I think it's not Hazy Maze Cave. {{User|Vini64}}
::Since Mario isn't blocky, I don't think it's from the N64. Was there a metal power-up in Super Mario Galaxy?{{User|Reversinator}}

Are we sure this is official art? Fanart can't be a featured image, and this doesn't look much like the official art for Super Mario 64. {{User|Twentytwofiftyseven}}

It has been decided that the Super Mario Wiki will no longer support this feature. This page is kept and protected strictly for historical purposes.

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 GMT), 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.

A gallery of all Featured Images can be found here.

This page follows the No-Signature Policy.
