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.

Rangiku Time skip image proposal
Okay this is the best shot I could find of her. I used a little photoshopery and removed the bubbles and added the sleeve back in. I also highlighted the eyes a bit. So do you think this is good for a time skip pic until something better comes around? -- 16:04, January 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * Still can't say I am a fan of SJA images. I cannot make out what is happening in there.--
 * I am hesitant about the idea of using "touched up" pictures, but I don't find it objectionable otherwise. We don't exactly have a suitable substitute, unless the same edits can be applied to a scanlated copy. Mohrpheus   (Talk)  18:12, January 31, 2013 (UTC)

I could darken the image, which is what happens in scanlations, it doesn't help the image has a white background.-- 18:18, January 31, 2013 (UTC) Okay done but redirect is crap, figures good wikia technology.-- 18:46, January 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * To be honest Rangiku has not been seen in a meaningful way in this arc yet and i know we could use this pic until another comes along, but it really looks bad as in she looks like she has just been had a serious trauma take place in her life instead of looking even partly normal as she does in the pic we currently use. Just pointing that out.--

I know this is a horrible picture but other that the dramatic eye from the Lts. Meeting this is the only close up we have of her in this arc. Im all for this as just a temp, and I HOPE something better comes.-- 18:55, January 31, 2013 (UTC)

I was confised on where to ask this. I haven't really got the ite fgured yet.

I wanted to change a character image in the wiki. Ginjou Kuugo's wiki page.

I wanted to use this image.

It's just drawn better than the used forum pic, since Ginjou's art was off alot in the arc. --JasmineFlower (talk) 13:26, April 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok first of all, you cannot link an image off-site and hope to use it for a Profile Picture, all profile pictures must be uploaded!! I would upload it myelf but I do not know where you got it from as all images MUST have Fair Use Rationale, there are no exceptions!! You should read THIS BLOG for further information on images here!! If there is no change in the next couple of days I will Close this discussion, that image is not better than the current one!!
 * The picture doesn't look as good as the current one, Kugo isn't looking at the camera and his head isn't really centered in the picture and the lightning and camera angle are just bad, on top of the fact that it isn't uploaded to the wiki as per image policy.
 * Sun and Kami are right. The suggestion does not meet the requirements for a profile picture, while the current one actually does. I see no reason to change it to this.--Xilinoc (talk) 21:41, April 1, 2013 (UTC)

Pre-Timeskip
Yumichika needs a better picture for his profile!! The current one has no FUR nor legal tagging and does not even face the front!! Further forward facing proposals welcome!!


 * 1) Sun's reasons for changing the picture are valid, and I support the proposal.--Xilinoc (talk) 00:02, March 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) With the same reasoning as Sun and Xil. My only concern is that the picture looks more grainy/blurry in comparison to the current one. --Kamikaze839 (talk) 00:04, March 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 3) It may not be the most fabulous picture, but its a lot better than what we have now.-- 00:17, March 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 4) Please Yumichika is fabulous no matter what!! Hehe!!
 * 5) First off, facing the front does not mean that they are directly facing the camera, it means that all their facial features need to be visible. Secondly, while the current pic is not the best, it is certainly better than the proposal. The proposal is of low quality, low definition and is blurry. I'd much rather we find the episode this picture comes from or find a better quality one. I know we all hate the arc, but there are many good pictures for characters in the reigai arc.--
 * 6) To be fair, you can add the Fair Use Rationale and the proper legal tags to the current image, and Yumichika is still looking at the camera. The proposal, while yes, it does show Yumichika facing the camera at a more normal angle, has a couple of issues. His mouth is open, there are distortions in his appearance (his outline is somewhat crooked), and there are some dullness in his colors (though this is possibly how the image was originally colored).

I added a second pic from Episode 330 that is much clearer and not blurry.--
 * 1) His mouth is still slightly open but I find it to be a better proposal, at the moment.
 * 2) High quality pic that is better than the current pic.--

The second proposal looks too squash for my liking so uploaded the same but with more body to him, I prefer a bit of shoulder if possible!!
 * 1) As proposer!!
 * 2) I support this new version.--Xilinoc (talk) 06:55, March 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * 3) Proposal 3 is the best of those and meets our requirements. Plus better proportions than 2  11:32, March 19, 2013 (UTC)


 * Why would you upload the exact same picture as me as a different file rather than just uploading a new version of my file? It is a waste of file space.--
 * It means that people can see both versions and choose which they prefer, which would not be the case if overwriting the pic. Losing candidates can be deleted afterwards if they serve no other purpose. Anyway this is a ballot: please vote and comment on the merits of the pictures and not anything else. 14:14, March 19, 2013 (UTC)


 * 1) Proposal 3, it's a good picture and not as in-your-face as proposal 2 --Kamikaze839 (talk) 19:31, March 19, 2013 (UTC)

Post-Timeskip
Yumichika's current profile picture after seventeen months shows him from an awkward angle with an angry expression and a very open mouth; frankly, his facial expressions don't go well at all with his personality. The proposal shows him at a better angle with a more relaxed appearance. He's still looking forward and while his mouth is still open and there are text bubbles, I believe this represents him better than the current.
