This thread will be to list pages whose pics are fine as is but are needing quality upgrades, so we don't take up space in the forum with individual threads for them. Swapping a pic with a better-quality version is a free action.
Please add pages that need work to the following Sandbox page: Artifacts 'R' Us

Alright, it's been swapped in. Do I also put a commented-out note linking here like the other IP-changed pics?
"I just want what everyone else has, that's all."Another comic one - how's this for ComicBook.The Avengers Jason Aaron?
Current (promo/textless cover):
Proposed (standard cover, higher quality image):
I prefer the version with the logo and text.
A lot of good you did me.Agreed

Same, tbh. I could probably do a wider image search and see if the logo-free art is available somewhere in a higher quality, but on work pages I like to see the name/logo of the work as part of the page image.
And getting a high quality version of the final cover with logo is easy.

21 has a weird crop. Can I change to this one ?
Current | Suggestion |
Changed, thanks.
The text and speech bubbles in Profanity Police are too small.
"I just want what everyone else has, that's all."Is it possible to upgrade Monster.Fairy Tail image quality to this one ? Its also more clear that Acnologia is destroying the battleships. Only a mod can change a CM image.

Sure, I guess.
Back in 2019, I upgraded the image on Cast Full of Pretty Boys from this:
to this:
Then last year, eroock changed it to the current image:
I don't really think that's an improvement, though. It's too bright and cropped oddly.
Keet cleanupThe second one (your upgrade) is better. Revert.
Art Museum Curator and frequent helper of the Web Original deprecation projectI find 2 too blurry, that's why I replaced it. 1 is actually the best of those. Not sure why it was switched.
Here's a quality upgrade of 2:
OK changed my mind, yeah this is good
Art Museum Curator and frequent helper of the Web Original deprecation projectYeah, that's the best one. Swap it in.
Keet cleanupI don't know if this is too drastic enough to warrant a thread, but the image of Kingdom of Loathing is really small. I have essentially the same image, but bigger and with text. Is this just a standard upgrade or should I make a thread?
Current:
Upgrade:
Art Museum Curator and frequent helper of the Web Original deprecation projectSpider-Man Beyond has a landscape image (double-sided comic cover) that doesn't look ideal at wiki size.
Current version:
Is it worth swapping this for the omnibus edition cover?
Slightly larger image of the heroes, and better quality, but the main benefit is moving the text off the image and into the black borders.
If so, is this still close enough to qualify for this thread's scope? Or should I start a new thread...
...or is it worth completely ditching it and looking for another image using portrait orientation art, which won't be so small?

The image of Pokémon Sleep is fine, but the slogan on top adds more to the awkward whitespace in the upper left corner. So I'm thinking of moving that to the caption box like this:
The whitespace is still there, but it's better than nothing.
