Talk:Kaku

Kaku image edit war
This is an edit war between DS and Cold that's been brought to me.

The Kaku image that Cold's been placing is a full view of Kaku. It shows Kaku's full body in his CP9 uniform. The only problem in the image is that he is facing directly forward. This direction is okay for most characters, however for characters like Kaku, Usopp, Arlong, and any other with a long nose, their most distinguishing aspect is otherwise obscured. Having them face a slight angle to one side so that their nose can be seen would be a good shot. Other than that little detail, the image of Cold's fulfills the minimum requirements.

The Kaku image that DS's been reverting is an image of Kaku in crouching position. While the image shows Kaku's nose in full view, the rest of his body is otherwise obscured by the dramatic positioning.Mugiwara Franky 06:30, October 11, 2009 (UTC)


 * In my opinion, if neither is satisfactory then both should be rejected. One-Winged Hawk 08:49, October 11, 2009 (UTC)

Somewhere it was stated that his image was unsatisfactory. I don't remember exact where but I think it was on a talk page. Drunk Samurai 15:16, October 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * With the screenshot, almost everything except his head obscured; and it kind of goes against the 'Dramatic Poses, What To Avoid' rule of the Image Guidelines. With the full-body, only his nose is obscured. If both images are in use, readers will be able to see his nose in the History section until we can find a full-body that shows it better.

Is something like this better?

Hey guys, i added a new portrait for kaku, in his black suit + from a view that shows his most notable trait: the nose. I hope you like it, please tell me if not before deleting, maybe i have another solution [user: Jinbe]

This picture isn't very good as it fails to show the whole of Kaku's body and even covers half of his head including one eye... I believe the best one recently shown on this Talk Page was the one that "The Pope" put up... Shows the whole body, shows the nose at an angle, not completely dark which ends up making things more difficult to see and all. Only weakness is that he isn't standing up straight... --One Piece Of Romance Dawn 11:34, January 11, 2011 (UTC)

I like the picture from "The Pope", it is a perfect shot of Kaku. However, he is wearing the shipwright uniform - and he isn't technically a shipwright, he is a cp9 (else he should belong to the galley la section, but he doesn't, at least not with the color scheme). Thats why we have the current portrait in his cp9 suit, posing "mysterious" (consistent with the other members).

And more important: in the gallery are the fullbody pictures of him -side by side- for a direct comparison between shipwright and cp9. So we have the best of both worlds, a detailed, consistent frontimage of kaku and 2 fullbody versions in the gallery (while one is rather small and of low quality, it gets the job done).Jinbe 13:34, January 11, 2011 (UTC)
