Conflict

Why should we use the black and white image over the colored image?   Galaxy 9000   23:18, August 8, 2013 (UTC)

Like I said in my comment: "Better angle, no panel lines and no tongue between his teeth." Awaikage Talk 15:24, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

The angle is hardly an issue. The addition of color is much more of an addition then a slightly better angle, along with the view of his eyes, which is important in a portrait. He's wearing sunglasses in the black and white image.   Galaxy 9000   15:25, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Your image sucks  Staw-Hat Luffy  Talk  15:27, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Please give valid arguments, and don't just say "your image sucks". So far, you've contributed nothing to this talk page.   Galaxy 9000   15:30, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Another thing I've noticed about the black and white is that the scar is harder to see then in the colored picture.   Galaxy 9000   15:31, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Even if you ignore the angle, the panel lines make the pic look really bad. And the tongue too, though that's not as big of an issue. Awaikage Talk 15:32, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Panel lines are a minor issue as well, and the benefits definitely outweigh them.   Galaxy 9000   15:35, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

You've provided a link that has very little to do with this discussion.

His head is pointed slightly downwards, but it's still possible to see his entire face. The main benefits are the addition of color (which is preferred), the addition of his eyes, and the more visible scar, which is a very important detail of his face.   Galaxy 9000   15:41, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Read the rules  Staw-Hat Luffy  Talk  15:45, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Yep, they've been read.

The image follows the rules, since his face and head are visible enough. "This is that it is preferred a decent profile, normally 3/4 or frontal, be used over other head positions like side profiles.". It's not a side profile, so yeah.

The point of the portrait is to capture his full facial features, and the colored image does that more-so then the non-colored image (visible scar, eyes, etc)   Galaxy 9000   15:50, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Where's his ear, Gal? Did he lose it? Oh, it's behind a panel line. Those are kinda distracting and blocking parts of his head, don't you think? Of course you don't. Awaikage Talk 15:58, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Please refrain from attacks. It's obvious that's what you're doing.

As I said, those are minor details lost, that are outweighed by the major details gained by the addition of color.   Galaxy 9000   16:11, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

I don't think his ears are "minor details". Awaikage Talk 16:28, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

It's close, but until Gal uploaded the HQ version, I would have favored the black and white, but now that we have HQ color, that one is better. Seeing the eyes is important, as is the presence of color, and the tongue obstructs nothing. It's reasonably frontal on top of all that. Though the anime version of the B+W image would probably be better than the color manga. JustSomeDude...  Talk | 20:59, September 2, 2013 (UTC)

Alright, it's obvious this is going nowhere and is being ignored. I'm starting a poll right now. There are only 2 images being warred over and it'll be a one week poll. Based on past polls, I don't think anyone will have a problem with the poll format. If you do, fess up quickly. JustSomeDude...  Talk | 13:09, September 9, 2013 (UTC)

Polls must be agreed upon.  Staw-Hat Luffy  Talk  13:44, September 9, 2013 (UTC)

I agree with having a poll. Lelouch Di Britannia Talk Page  13:45, September 9, 2013 (UTC)

That's not what I'm talking about. He shouldn't make polls without discussing it, it's against the rules.  Staw-Hat Luffy  Talk  16:03, September 9, 2013 (UTC)
