My personal order of preference: 1, 3, 2. All of them are excellent, though.

I like the first...

I kind of like two just because it has the dwarves, too, which highlights all living things. But the first one is iconic to this trope, and it shows them cozying up to her. As well as an inordinate amount of critters.

The current one seems better than those I think.

Please elaborate. Don't see how that is possible, especially given the third.

How do the Snow White pictures look at wiki size? They're all good, but the third one is better due to quality.

The Internet misuses, abuses, and overuses everything.

The third one is already at wiki size, and clearly looks good (ie. bright, colourful and cute, and demonstrates well enough how this trope is typically approached in practice) at that size. Of the three options presented, I prefer the third.

Also, just throwing this out there, here's another potential option:

What is wrong with the picture that is already on this page?

There's nothing wrong with it, per se, just that some other good examples came up in other threads that might be better than what's up there now.

As for the pony pic, I think the fact that the "friend to all living things" is also an animal makes it a bit unclear. Definitely not as good as Disney Princess.

[up] Again, I was just mentioning it as one more option.

But yeah, saying there is room for improvement is not the same as saying the current image is unacceptable.

The problem with three is that if it gets chosen for Princess Classic...

There's also this one.

[up] We could choose a different one for Princess Classic.

As for that pic, something just seems a bit weird about Snow White's facial expression.

[up] The thing is, it seems to be the most well-liked Princess Classic so far.

I'd like to see the first image in the OP wiki-sized, because I really like it. The Pony looks good too, although I think the princesses are better.

[up][up]But it's the best choice there so far. And how do we pick which one gets preference if they both win? You could argue we could pick another one for this, too.

As another mentioned, the problem with the pony one is that if you are not familiar with the show, well, the pony is another animal. It's not quite clear who is the "friend". (Also, Fluttershy appears to have buck teeth due to that background bush—not that that's relevant.)

Anyway:
