I'd like to change the current page pic for Gravity Falls (which shows just Dipper and Mabel) to this pic, which includes the entire cast. Alternatively, I could put the pic on the series' main characters page. Any objections?

I like the current; the suggestion would be fine for the characters page.

I think either solution works. Both current and the suggestion are good images.

Fixed the tag.

Regarding the image, the current on page image shows the two main characters while the suggestion shows all characters (with the main ones in the foreground). I am inclined to use the suggestion on the main page, since it shows more of the characters and since using an image of all characters on Characters/ pages is uncommon.

Part of the reason I like the current is that it goes along nicely with the description of the show's mood and themes...the suggestion doesn't have that.

If that's more illustrative of the show's mood (not familiar with it), I think that's preferable. A work image doesn't need to be either an official poster or a cast shot.

Do we have a consensus yet?

A rule of thumb is that if there aren't many "oppose" votes, 7 "support" votes are necessary to carry a motion.

I agree with Willbyr. The current image has a touch of mystery (take another look at that "tree") that the suggestion just doesn't have, which in turn helps illustrate the setting and tone of the show better. It also does a better job at showcasing the personalities of Dipper and Mabel.

Put the cast on the cast page. Current is fine where it is.

I think that the pic we already have on the page is adequate.

Keep the current picture.

I think we can go ahead and move on this one. I've tagged the work page to keep the current and added the suggestion to the characters page and tagged it accordingly...it won't hurt anything to have it there. Locking up.
