Picture Change Guidelines
As per the Image Policy, nominate and discuss changes to the profile pictures of the character articles here and only here. The typical requirements for a profile picture are that it shows the character facing forward, in their typical attire and should not be battle-worn. They should be centered, have good lighting, and be of good quality. Candidates also must have valid and complete and  templates attached to them or else they will be rejected.

If another pic is brought up after the picture is picked then the voting begins again with the pic that has already been picked and the new pic or pics.

Ashisogi Jizō (Zanpakutō spirit)
As I recall, a character's profile image is supposed to focus on their head and possibly upper torso instead of showing their entire body. With that in mind, I propose we change Ashisogi Jizō's profile image. While the current image is a medium resolution picture of his full body, the proposal shows his head and shoulders in more details, as well as cutting out a lot of the wings.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer, I support this change.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Fits within the rules more.

Gonryōmaru (Zanpakutō spirit)
Since there's only one episode where Gonryōmaru appears in the sunlight, I'm making do with him appearing at night. While his current profile image has him turned slightly away from the camera and has a ton of space on either side of him, the proposal is much more focused, and has him facing forward.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer, I support this change.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Far better

Hyōrinmaru (Zanpakutō spirit)
This change is probably the most important out of all of them. Hyōrinmaru's current profile image has him at an angle, in shadow at night, and off to the side. No. Just no, no, no. The proposal, meanwhile, shows him facing the camera head-on, is focused at the center, and has him in regular lighting while still showing his head and shoulders and such.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer, I support this change.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Reasons already stated

Muramasa (Zanpakutō spirit)
While Muramasa's current profile image does have him in good lighting, facing forward, etc., it has that trademark Pierrot quality of having an oddly-shaped face; specifically, Muramasa's head and mouth are thinner than how they usually appear in the anime, and his expression is just...strange. Plus, he has a large amount of space on either side of his head devoted to his fluffy collar, something I don't feel is necessary. Both proposals show him in his usual appearance, but one is slightly darker and shows some more of the top of his head and such, while the other has him in full daylight, but cuts off the top of his head so you can only see the sides and bangs. Still though, full daylight and all that.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) I prefer Proposal 1 myself. Despite it being slightly darker, it shows some more of his head, and he usually looks slightly irked anyway.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Proposal 1 - both are better than the current. Shading on 2 isn't as good though

Senbonzakura (Zanpakutō spirit)
As above, Senbonzakura's current profile image does have him facing forward and in somewhat good lighting. However, the focus is what's wrong here; his head is relegated to the very top of the image, while his shoulders and breastplates take up a large portion below, leaving his head somewhat hard to see in detail. As such, I've found two alternatives; the first proposal shows his mask (which is basically his face, let's be honest here) in much greater detail and shows his bangs and part of his neck, while the second proposal, while of a somewhat lesser quality, shows his entire head and his hair, which is good.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) Between the two, I prefer Proposal 1 because it focuses on his "face" in greater detail, and still shows a fair amount of his hair in the process.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Proposal 2 - both are good, but I like that 2 shows his entire head, including the headpiece

Sode no Shirayuki (Zanpakutō spirit)
Sode no Shirayuki's current profile image is...ech. She's off-center, it has that weird 232 sort-of proper lighting, and there's a lot of her upper torso in the image that doesn't need to be there. Hence, my proposal: she's centered, the lighting is better, and her head is the focus of the image. Plus, that quality.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer, I support this change.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) More direct in the way she's facing

Tobiume (Zanpakutō spirit)
Tobiume's current profile image shows her at nighttime, facing her body away from the camera, and with those duller colors and such. We can do better. My proposal shows her in proper lighting, facing the camera, and with bettererest colors.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer, I support this change.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Overall better

Kōga Kuchiki
Kōga's current profile image is...lacking, to say the least. It is somewhat zoomed out, has him standing at a slight angle, and leaves him looking like an idiot with his mouth hanging open like that. My proposal is a more detailed close-up of his face, showing his eyes and his hair while leaving his mouth closed and showing his shoulders and neck. Can't fix that gross skin, but oh well.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer, I support this change.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) In the original the broken mouth cover always looked like decaying skin to me. This fixes that

Narunosuke
Narunosuke's current profile image breaks a lot of rules. It's at night, has him facing about 40 degrees away from the camera, and shows him after he transformed into a Tōjū. Meanwhile, my proposal has him facing the camera during the day, and shows him how he appears throughout most of the episode - in bandages. I know we don't like it when characters have wounds in their profile images, but in this case he's literally got bandages on for most of his appearance, so...--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer, I support this change.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) It's better than the current. The bandages are kinda meh, but still

Kirikaze
While Kirikaze's current profile image does meet the requirements of high quality, good lighting, etc., there's one problem: it's been scrunched horizontally. As such, I believe my proposal is more fitting, as it is not scrunched, focuses more on his head, and actually shows him more head-on than his current profile image does.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer, I support this change.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Pretty clear reasoning (dat face)

Hollow Tōjū
As mentioned far above, we don't generally show a character's full body in their profile image, so I believe the Hollow Tōjū is due for a change. While his current profile image has his full body, doesn't focus on his head, and has him facing slightly away from the camera, my proposal shows him head-on and focuses more on his head and shoulders.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer, I support this change.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Do I even need to explain this one?

Hammer Tōjū
See above because I don't feel like typing the same thing for a third time. Anyways, while the Hammer Tōjū's current image has his full body, doesn't focus on his head, is off-center, etc., my proposal has his head as the focus, is zoomed in, and is centered.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer, I support this change.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Same reasoning as Hollow Toju

Bearded Tōjū
See above again. While the Bearded Tōjū's current profile image is a zoomed-out shot of him and his upper body, my proposal is a shot focusing on his face, showing it in more detail while leaving most of the beard and hair.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer, I support this change.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:26, April 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Again, same as Hollow and Bearded
