Forum:Multi-Panel images

Can we please create a rule regarding images that have multiple manga panels?

No, I'm not saying that no images with multiple panels should be allowed. But within the past few years, especially since Dressrosa, I've noticed egregious usage of multiple panels. One such example was the image for the Ishi Ishi no Mi, which was not only stone Pica coming out of the wall, but also everyone's reactions. Why? What does this add?

Then comes the problem when the anime comes out. Let's say we have a multi-panel image, now it's time to make it an anime image. How do you do that? Just pick one frame from the anime? Cram multiple frames together? It just becomes a mess.

Like I said, we shouldn't outlaw the practice entirely; images where the multiple panels actually convey more necessary information, such as the page for Shichibukai, are fine. But full two-page spreads like Luffy attacking Doflamingo with King Kong Gun and Doflamingo retaliating with God Thread and Luffy breaking through, it's just a mess! How is anybody supposed to make that out at a thumbnail size? What we need is some kind of regulation to avoid edit wars from breaking out. The Pope 05:15, July 20, 2015 (UTC)
