Suggestion: Live Action Adaptation

Go To

I think that we should get a new page image for Live-Action Adaptation because the current one (of Futurama) isn't even a real adaptation. Plus, There Is No Such Thing As Notability, and it only works if you already know of Futurama as a cartoon.

Here is my suggestion. Is it any good?

I think it is an improvement.

Also, TINSTAN means "all works are notable", not... that.

I'm really sorry! I thought it also meant that it never matters how notable a work is, so a work being very well-known is not an excuse to use an image that only makes sense to people who have watched/read/played it.

The page you want is Just A Face And A Caption, not There Is No Such Thing As Notability. Prefer the suggestion to the current for the reasons outlined in the OP. Current, by the way:

The suggestion is an improvement; as well as being more illustrative due to having both parts, it isn't needlessly large like the current. If we can use a different shot of Aang for the animated version that might be helpful, since that image is already on Characters.Avatar The Last Airbender Team Avatar, but it doesn't matter much.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

The suggestion is a vast improvement over the current. I don't mind that version of Aang being used there and on the character page.

Pick a random number between whatever the post number of this post is, and 0. The post with the corresponding number reflects why I think the suggestion is better.

I like the new suggestion much more than the current.

My version is better. (Or at least brighter, and vertical.)

Agreeing with shimaspawn's rotation of the image.

By the way, how do you rotate an image?

  • Open Photoshop.
  • Change the canvas size to double the height.
  • Copy half the image and paste it below the other half.
  • Crop the image.

Yeah, shimaspawn's picture is better. Should I change the page image now or wait until more people agree?

As much as I hate the Shamalamadingdong movie, the suggestion does fit far more than the current.

I switched the pics out. I figure we'll need a caption for the potholes to the respective series...no ideas right now, though.

A bit bland, but not bad.

However, when someone asks for a caption in a thread, you are generally supposed to wait for feedback before putting it up, even if it's not a capital crime to jump ahead.
