Pages needing quality upgrades: Sandbox.Artifacts R Us

Go To

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, as is swapping a pic with a larger identical version to fit the new image size criteria (800px minimum width). If there are more changes in the proposed swap (e.g. less text, slightly different coloring or crop), however, you might want to post here first.

Resources:

Please add pages that need work to the following Sandbox page: Artifacts 'R' Us

Highly Visible Ninja & ComicBook.The Tick done.

A Molten Date with Death is so crunchy it's causing confusion.

[up] I'm good with the Basilisk upgrade but the proposed Blood image looks too obviously AI-upsized to me.

EDIT: Found a Blu Ray cover art and cropped it.

Kissed Keepsake

Current:

A kiss from the one you love is a treasure to be cherished. Now, if only we could do something about the rest of his cheek.

Upgrade (top panel has different frame, but same shot):

Superhero Episode

Current:

Even if most of them already have magical abilities, it's not a real superhero episode unless you're wearing colorful spandex, a mask, and the occasional cape.

[tup] to the upgrade [up][up] though I think the image might need to change (it took me a minute to realize it's a historical work).

Bumping this since I didn't get any thoughts on it.

re: A Molten Date with Death & Superhero Movie Villains Die, the images are just not great; an upgrade won't help much. i still couldn't tell what's going on in the former without having it told to me in the description (and as someone with zero familiarity with that movie, the thumbs-up makes it seem like a burn-proof I'm Okay!) & the latter actually makes it worse imo, since it's harder to tell he's even on the ground. i'd be fine with the former upgrade for now, but both need a new image.

november is tongue awareness month.

I think that's gonna need a thread due to the frame and additional characters.
