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.

Votes
How to vote:

{|align=right


 * }


 * Vote by typing either of the following in the relevant sections:

Only one "Support" vote per user. Votes will be open only for a week of the initial pic being placed. At the end of the week the highest rated pic will win. If no pick is a clear winner, than an admin with pick the pic. 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.

Äs Nödt
Currently, Äs' profile has it from a semi-side angle, is somewhat lacking when it comes to smoothness and detail, and has part of a text bubble on the right side. I've found two other panels that 1. display it a bit more from the front, 2. are smoother and more detailed regarding its face, and 3. don't have any text bubbles. While admittedly the first proposal isn't 250px, it's the only decent image I found of it facing forward, and if it's preferred I could try to find a larger version. The second proposal, though, has some more detail and is zoomed in a bit more.--Xilinoc (talk) 06:16, July 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * 1) Option 2 for being detailed and isn't blurry around the eyes as Option 1, and is more camera facing than the current one we have.
 * 2) Option 2. It's not facing forward like 1 is, but it also doesn't have those "camera zoom" lines distorting it.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  19:24, July 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * 1) Sorry out of those I prefer the current one, not only its shape and size, but its angle too and those other two are also at awkward angles as well!!


 * Neutral - Of the two proposed replacements, 2 is the better and it shows a little bit more of her face, even if it is from an odd angle. On the negative side, there it still has a text bubble and the spikes are a bit harder to discern. 1 is rather lacking imo. The question is how much better is prop2 than the current pic. To me the answer is not that much better. I'm inclined to leave it be until a better shot comes along. 12:58, July 22, 2013 (UTC)

Bambietta Basterbine
While there's nothing blatantly wrong with Bambietta's current image, she's portrayed from a diagonal view, and her colors and the details of her face are a bit muted. The proposals are more detailed and not gray. The first proposal, as with the above discussion for Äs, isn't 250px, nor is the second proposal, unfortunately, but it is probably the best one in terms of her facing the camera, so if it's preferred, there's probably a larger version somewhere. The third and fourth proposals show her in her recent, more serious appearance, which seems a bit more accurate than, say, the cutesy little girl cutting through Shinigami soldiers.--Xilinoc (talk) 06:16, July 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * 1) all proposals. The first two have some distracting stuff such as the other panels and sound effect symbols. The third she isn't facing forward as much as the current one and the fourth a good portion of her face is obscured by her hat
 * 2) Other than the shading there is nothing wrong with the current picture. She may not be directly facing the viewer, but you can see all of her face, which is the point of the facing the viewer criteria. Nothing is lost by her looking slightly to the side. Of the proposed pics, op1 is the only one I'd consider, but I am opposed to changing this at this time.  12:58, July 22, 2013 (UTC)

Shizuku
Okay, so this is something I've been meaning to bring up for a while now. Shizuku's current profile is...ehhhhh. He's looking at the camera with his face turned to the side, his scythe's handle is just...there for no good reason, and you don't see much of his face. While that last bit may not be possible in any frame due to his hairstyle, I think we can do better. Of the two possible replacements I've found, the first one shows more of his shoulders and chest and is brighter, but isn't as focused on his face and has his mouth open in surprise. The second one is more focused on his face and has him with a neutral expression, but is somewhat darker save for the left side. Either way, I think they're both better than the current one.--Xilinoc (talk) 01:01, August 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * 1) Of the two, I prefer Proposal 2 more, due to the neutral expression and the focus on the face.--Xilinoc (talk) 01:01, August 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 2 as well, more natural expression better than current one!!
 * 3) Door #2 because it is a direct angle and looks better.

Bazz-B

 * 1)  While the proposed does show some damage, it shows a more direct angle at Bazz-B and isn't awkwardly shaped, so another panel isn't intruding.
 * 2)  It might not be the best possible option, but it's better than the current one, for sure, mainly because of the shading in the current.

Is there any way to put more focus on his head without making the picture too much smaller? I like the shot, but I think it shows a bit too much of his body. Mohrpheus  (Talk)  14:53, September 25, 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't think I can without making the shot look more pixelated.

I've uploaded a cropped version of the panel in question that focuses more on Bazz-B's head as per Mohrp's request.--Xilinoc (talk) 03:10, September 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * 1) Thanks Xil. The alternate shot, if everyone is all right with it. The quality hasn't really degraded, from the looks of it.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  03:34, September 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) I'm moving my vote over to this one, as it certainly is more focused on his face.
 * 3) THis is definitely an improvement.
 * 4) As uploader, I support the change as well.--Xilinoc (talk) 22:02, September 27, 2013 (UTC)

Background Change Candidates
So we were talking about new backgrounds in chat earlier, and after presenting this option most seemed to be in agreement. So I've got the permission of the original manga colour artists, and here we are to vote. Feel free to throw up any other alternatives or suggest other images to be used (I'm happy to create more).

''To keep this short the voting period will be one week. Voting ends on October 9 according to the wiki clock.

 * 1) - yep, I like it.
 * 2) Kami likey.
 * 3) - prefer the one we have looks way more professional!!

Lemurs made a number of alternative backgrounds a while back to fit the new color scheme we've got going on, so I saw it fit to add them to the proposals. Personally, I wouldn't mind if it were changed, but the current background just seems right to me.--Xilinoc (talk) 22:24, October 3, 2013 (UTC)


 * 1) The picture arrangements look nice and all, but frankly I'm more comfortable with black and white than I am with the Red, White and Blue Turbo Rocket™ color scale. -  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  22:32, October 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) To be honest I never really found a design I was particularly satisfied with. The color scheme, I agree is an issue, personally I would prefer either a duotone or just black and white color scheme. If anyone has any proposals for a new background, I have the software capable of pretty much doing anything within reason. I could even attempt to redo the current background in a scalable vector format. -- 02:49, October 4, 2013 (UTC)
