Starrk
Do we have any support to changing Starrk's profile pic? I don't really have anything to offer at the moment but there is probably more Starrk pics to out there now then ever before. Tinni  (Talk)  12:46, June 18, 2010 (UTC)

I have these three images from episode 276. I'll leave it to you guys to decide whether you want to use them and which one you think is better. Shiro Spiker II 09:01, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Option A and B actually look pretty good. I'll have to put my vote for A, but either one would work. Starrk is releasing in the anime soon, so these may be the last good shots we ever get. We'll see though. Mohrpheus 19:18, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

They're pretty good shots but I don't think they'd work because neither is facing the viewer. I haven't watched the episode, when I have the time to do so I'll see if I can find any shot. Of the two, A would be better, if I had to pick, but I'm not placing any votes yet. Lia Schiffer  (Talk)  19:21, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

New shot from Ep274 added. I feel the 276 ones are not a great option due to Starrk being twisted in the pictures. For me it is between the current pic and 274 and I vote for 274 as being the best of these options. Yyp (Talk) 14:35, June 26, 2010 (UTC)

I'm voting for 274 as well. I like the old pic, and some of the 276 ones are pretty decent, but the Episode 274 pic is the best option, IMO, as it has him standing up and perfectly facing the camera. Arrancar109 (Talk)  15:53, June 26, 2010 (UTC)

His expression looks a tad awkward in my opinion, but it is better qualified than the two 276 variations. For the sake of policy, I'll vote for 274 as well. Seeing as Starrk is releasing soon, I hope we can get a better shot before that time comes. Mohrpheus 06:52, June 27, 2010 (UTC)

From the current options, I too believe 274 is the best suited due to the angle and all. Not to mention that the 276 A and B don't show his mask fragments and C is too zoomed out. I also like the current picture, even if the angle is odd, it shows a bit of Starrk's personality, if you get what I mean. I still hope we can get some more options from 277 before he releases Lia Schiffer   (Talk)  07:28, June 27, 2010 (UTC)

We won't be getting any from future episodes. This is from 277. Yyp (Talk) 12:36, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

I like the one from 277 the best. It conforms to all our requirements AND Starrk does't have a stupid look on his face like he does with 274. Tinni  (Talk)  12:50, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

I've got another picture from episode 277 even if it's not much compared to the other picture Yyp uploaded. Shiro Spiker II 13:34, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

Perfect! Excellent improvements over the 274 picture. Both 277 pics look good, so it's a little hard for me to decide. I'll go with Yyp's though, since it's a little closer up. Mohrpheus 17:01, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

The one I like best is 277B. A proper mugshot should always be full frontal, and in the one in 274 he looks like he just swallowed a fly. WD  Talk to me  21:19, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

I agree. 277B for me. TomServo101 (Talk)  21:30, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

I prefer 277A myself. 277B is a bit blurry. Tinni  (Talk)  08:47, June 30, 2010 (UTC)

I have to agree with Tinni 277A is the best.277B is blurry and a little zoomed out and 277A gives us a better focus on his face.GrimGhost 04:31, July 1, 2010 (UTC)

Ok so it's 227A for Me, Mohrheus and GrimGhost. 227B for TomServo101 and Weedefinition. I'll declare 227A the winner for now but I'll leave the discussion for a little while longer. Tinni  (Talk)  04:50, July 1, 2010 (UTC)

Well, since it seems that the change is inevitable, I'd vote for 277B, out of the two 277 options, the A version seems a little dorky for me, I'm not a real fan of the drawing, I can't exactly point out what, but there's something bothering me about it. Lia Schiffer  (Talk)  05:08, July 1, 2010 (UTC)

277A wins with 5 votes (including myself) to 3 for B. Change has been made. Yyp (Talk) 22:56, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

Aizen
the current one is horrible how about this one? --RexGodwin 15:02, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * You are going to have to explain what is so horrible about the current 1.09MB high quality image that you want to replace it with a 234 KB medium quality, at best, image that is marred by shadows. Tinni   (Talk)  15:12, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

sorry, that was a lil rude. i just mean the face. i mean look at it; it looks so off. besides this one has better animation and is facing the camera moreso. the shadows don't detract too much, and who cares about the size too much? it is a high quality pic.--RexGodwin 15:43, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

There is absolutely nothing high quality about these shots and Option B is just deformed. My vote is against both these pictures. I am not against changing the current pictures, I can see how Aizen's look in the current picture might be a little too "mean". But we can honestly do better. Tinni  (Talk)  16:04, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

Option B is terribly distorted and would not even be considered, while the other is not an improvement on the current one, imo. Second, those images break the Bleach Wiki:Image Policy as they do not have and  templates attached to them. Thus they cannot be used as profile images. Please familiarize yourself with the policy (which has recently been updated) before proposing any more pictures. 16:06, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

I like the current one. It is a perfect look for Aizen and is a very high quality image. The proposed replacements are not any good--God (Pray)  22:35, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, if there is no desire to change Aizen's picture, except from RexGodwin, then let's just drop the subject until we get anime shots of mullet-Aizen or as I like to call him bogan-Aizen. Tinni  (Talk)  08:23, July 18, 2010 (UTC)

Mashiro Lieutenant Pic
I've been thinking for a bit that Mashiro's current lieutenant image seems a bit cartoonish. I know she acts like that almost all the time, but I think it's important to display her normal facial features instead of a more cartoonish one. I took this screenshot from Episode 209, which actually happens just a few frames before the current image. Anyway, I think this would be a more suitable image for Mashiro's image in her History section than the current one. Any thoughts guys? Arrancar109 (Talk)  06:36, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

I've had the same concern as you about that picture, I think the proposed change is good except for the fact that the glasses are missing, which is one of the main traits of her outfit during the Pendulum arc. Maybe we could do without them, I don't know. I think we could look out for another shot with the glasses visible and that doesn't look so cartoonish Lia Schiffer   (Talk)  06:56, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

Hmm... I didn't notice that at first. Thanks for pointing that out Lia. I've uploaded another pic. Facing the camera directly isn't a necessity for History pics. Furthermore, we don't necessarily need an up-close pic of her in her lieutenant uniform, but we need something suitable to distinguish her features enough. I've found 2 other shots. I think B is a potential candidate. C would work if we could get the RAW version of it; the sub that I downloaded didn't have an opportunity in this scene for us to use it, so if anyone could get a better version of C without the subs, I think that would be our best shot. Arrancar109 (Talk)  07:09, July 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * Found one more. Arrancar109 (Talk)  07:19, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

I agree that we should get rid of the cartoonish one. Options B & D are both good. Either will do imo. 10:56, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

I'm more into B, I think D looks like a kitten? B looks more natural. Lia Schiffer  (Talk)  05:44, July 18, 2010 (UTC)

I think B is the best. Its a good shot--God (Pray)  05:51, July 18, 2010 (UTC)

Option B shows her sunglasses and since the purpose of the shot is to show her general appearance and not minute details of her face, which is the profile pic is for, I think Option B is the best. Tinni  (Talk)  08:23, July 18, 2010 (UTC)

Since option B is clearly the most preferable, I'll go ahead and put it up. Arrancar109 (Talk)  18:29, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Mashiro
Since episode 278 had such great Vizard mug-shots, I think it's about time we went through and changed vizards profiles, most of whom are quite terrible and violates are image policies. Mashiro's current pic can really do with an upgrade. Tinni  (Talk)  17:47, July 6, 2010 (UTC)

Following on the from the conversation on Kensai's talk page I trimmed the picture to get rid of the black shade line and with that gone, I think this is a vast improvement on the old profile pic and have therefore changed it. But please an eye out in the upcoming episodes for something better. Just remember that we can't use images with facial wounds, sweat etc. Tinni   (Talk)  02:41, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

The body positioning is a bit awkward, but I'm doubtful that we'll get anything else less awkward as she is pretty much full time mask from ehre on until Wonderweiss smashes her in the face and I can't see there being a good angle in that scene. 10:19, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

Gin
Alright, it was always understood that Gin's current profile image was a placeholder until we got something better. This shot from episode 280 is pretty good IMO. He has his smile, he has is eyes close, he has his silver hair and he's looking down on us like a smug fox-faced son of a bitch he is! It's perfect! *sigh* Gin.... Tinni  (Talk)  14:13, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

It might not be facing the camera, but its the best we have for a while till Gin actually starts fighting. so ill vouch for 280. :D--RexGodwin 16:22, July 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * I am pretty sure Gin's pose counts as facing the camera. See, it's all to do with the eye (closed or not). Which way is the eye looking. If the eye is looking mostly towards the viewer, then it counts as facing the camera. If the eye is looking off to the side, then no - it doesn't count towards facing the camera. In this case, Gin is looking down at the viewer but he is definitely looking at the viewer. Thus counts as facing the camera. Tinni   (Talk)  16:27, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Ok its unamimous then. shall we replace the current one? (man, i cant believe its been this long to actually get a good shot of Ichimaru.. infact, theyre really arent many good anime shots of him in his latest costume are there?)--RexGodwin 16:36, July 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Two people is not unanimous. Let's give it a while so other people can comment. 20:51, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

I think we should keep this conversation going but given that the picture from episode 280 is vastly, vastly superior to the current pic, I think we should make the change now and if something comes up better down the line, then we can change it again In fact, I think I'll do that since no one has objected to the pic from episode 280. Tinni  (Talk)  03:23, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

I'm for the change. Both images are good, but the lighting on the old pic is off (given how dark Hueco Mundo is). I don't think there's anything better right now, but if it comes up, it'll likely end up here. <font color="teal" size="2px">Arrancar109 <font color="teal" size="1px">(Talk)  04:30, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

Hirako
Since episode 278 had such great Vizard mug-shots, I think it's about time we went through and changed vizards profiles, most of whom are quite terrible and violates are image policies. Shinji's current one isn't bad but the quality of the 278 image is better IMO. Tinni  (Talk)  18:20, July 6, 2010 (UTC)

You are killing me! I love both! I think the current one is gorgeous, I don't see any problem with it at all. But 278 is amazing and it has Shinji-ness dripping from every pixel. The only problem I have with it is that it's so zoomed out, so you don't see the face details (not that he has many), but I still like it as it is. Though a close-up to that scene with the same expression would be lovely and I'd probably give it my vote right away. Because we're not getting any Shinji picture after Tosen cuts his forehead/eyebrow (unless the anime pulls the same trick of the vanishing/unvanishing wound). Lia Schiffer  (Talk)  06:00, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

Well, I found this one near the end of 278, and it isn't as zoomed out though the head is cropped which bothers me. The PV showed a very pretty scene of Shinji with his hat on that promised to give some decent shots if these don't work. Lia Schiffer  (Talk)  07:38, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

I think the current one is better than both of these options. Having the hat in the picture would be a nice bonus, but "Proposed change from episode 278" is too zoomed out and has Hachi in the background. Will keep an eye out for more options over the next couple of weeks, but I'm happy with the current picture remaining. 10:15, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

Since someone is going to bring it up, here is a pic of Hirako from ep279 with the hat. I still prefer the current picture. 16:12, July 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * I support hat Shinji pic. Tinni   (Talk)  01:25, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * I am with Tinni on this one. Hat and Blade Shinji ftw--<font color="black" face="Verdana">God <font color="black" face="Verdana">(Pray)  20:04, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, I prefer the current one to the hat one. I like the drawing better, even if it doesn't have his usual smile. I wonder if the anime is going to make that cut above his eye disappear just like the manga did, because if it doesn't then we're not going to get any more shots. Lia Schiffer   (Talk)  06:38, July 18, 2010 (UTC)

3 (Yyp, me and Godisme) to 1 (Lia), hat + sword Shinji wins. Plus as his facial wound now renders any further shots of him impossible. I am closing this discussion. Tinni  (Talk)  16:29, July 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Erm, check again Tinni. My vote was for the current picture to remain. That means it is 2-2 for the current & "hat & blade" pictures. This stays open until more people cast a vote on it. 20:51, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

If we change it, I'm for the 278 mugshot; otherwise, I'm fine with the current pic with the way it is. I know Shinji wears that hat a lot, but I think it's better to show an image of him without it on his head. <font color="teal" size="2px">Arrancar109 <font color="teal" size="1px">(Talk)  21:23, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
