RuneScape:Featured images

Featured images are images that add significantly to articles, either by illustrating article content particularly well, or being eye-catching to the point where users will want to read its accompanying article. Taking the adage that "a picture is worth a thousand words," the images featured on the Main Page should illustrate a Wiki article in such a way as to add significantly to that article, according to the featured image criteria. All currently featured images can be found in the featured images gallery.

Nominating

 * If you believe an image should be featured, please add it below to the "Current nominations" section.
 * Conversely, if you believe that an image should be "unfeatured", add it to the "Nominations for delisting" section.
 * For promotion, if an image is listed here for about seven days with three or more reviewers in support (excluding the nominator(s)) and the consensus is in its favour, it can be added to the list.
 * If necessary, decisions about close candidacies will be made on a case-by-case basis.
 * If you are nominating a previously nominated image, make sure you add link(s) to previous nominations. A historical list of nominations is stored in the archives.

Image criteria

 * The image is used in an article.
 * Unless the image is used elsewhere in the wiki, it will not be accepted. This is to prevent "orphaned images".
 * The image is taken from RuneScape game client, by wiki users.
 * Non-free images used under the "Fair use" condition should not be nominated.
 * The image file size is less than 100kb.
 * This is to facilitate users with slower connections, and to reduce lag.
 * Larger images may be used, provided the thumbnails are within this limit.
 * The image is moderately sized.
 * The size is recommended to be larger than 75x75, but smaller than 250x250 pixels.
 * For larger images, use a thumbnail which is within these sizes.
 * The image is in compliance with the Images and media policy.

How to nominate
See the following example:

Example
Description: Sample description.

Reason: Sample reason.

Expiry:


 * Support - As nominator. ~

Note to nominators (READ THIS BEFORE NOMINATING)

 * Describe the image. The description should describe the image itself, and not anything else.  Note that the description appears on the Main Page. 
 * Be neutral. The description should not be biased, and avoid superlatives, such as "most", "greatest", "best", etc.
 * Be creative. Descriptions beginning with "A picture of..." and "A view of..." are not appropriate and should be avoided.
 * Avoid redundancy. Do not repeat the "title" of the image in the description. Try reading the title and the description together to see how it sounds. For example,  Kharidian Desert, a shimmering oasis  sounds better than  Kharidian Desert, a shimmering oasis in the Kharidian Desert .
 * Use it first. Please make sure the image is used in the mainspace before nominating.

 * Support - It was hard to find a good background, but I think it looks awesome. . 17:45, December 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I don't like the background, and it doesn't have that FIMG 'feel' to me. 17:59, December 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support -Looks great, and has a good background. To make me even more happy, mebbe cut it out?  Overall, looks great, and now I want to see the article in question-perfect! -- 19:46, December 28, 2009 (UTC)

Dragon Slayer
Description: The ominous green room in the Dwarven mines.

Reason: The quality is great and the green makes it look overall great.

Expiry:


 * Support - As nominator. 18:14, December 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak support - It's really cool, but its at a very awkward angle! Gaga xxx 21:18, December 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose - That image is kind of bad in my opinion, the angle is kind of off, but I don't think there's anything special in it, glowing lights don't change my decision. ---Jhanely 22:54, December 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - Dunno why, but I like the greenness of the image. 21:44, January 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Support - Fantastic lighting and detail. 04:12, January 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Notice of intent - Deadline for nomination extended by a week to 11 January 2010. 07:53, January 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Support - Dunno why, but the greenness is calling to me. -- 19:26, January 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I don't like neon green and poo brown colours on the same image 22:08, January 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose - The angle is bad. Really, really bad. And we can see almost no details!--Yojeez 22:37, January 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I don't like the angle. Also, it looks just weird - with the corridor in the corner and stuff. 17:53, January 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Support - The greenness has an oddly creepy feeling about it. I like it.  18:02, January 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose - If you could of got a closer shot, it would off been awesome, but for now it's too hard to see whats in the image 20:26, January 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Did you see the full image? It is correctly zoomed. 21:54, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Support - I like the ominous and green, looks cool. 21:49, January 7, 2010 (UTC)

Count Draynor's Coffin
Description: The entrance to Count Draynor's gloomy hall.

Reason: Simply put, it's spooky! I love the lighting in this picture, the coffin and the actual atmosphere

Expiry:


 * Support - As nominator. Death 4210 23:27, January 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - I've restarted the nomination and archived the old one, seeing as we already have an image of Count Draynor's Coffin, and this would be a nomination for replacement. 07:37, January 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Support as 'new' FIMG - I like the new image, but I don't think that it is better than the old one. I think both should be FIMGs. 21:56, January 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I really like the old one. The new hallway one is just not to the point, black edges make it look really lame :|. 02:20, January 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose - The old one was better. No need to have 2 images of the same thing. 02:27, January 13, 2010 (UTC)

Dragon (Unstable Foundations)
Reason: It's larger and the edges are a bit smoother.

Expiry:


 * Support - As nominator. -- 17:25, January 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose - Too dark in the back, try to do 1 more try in this image ;) 23:50, January 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Support - (I don't know why this is at the bottom of this post, if you can move it, please help >_<)Ahem, It looks much better, it doesn't matter if it's dark, that's what makes it looks mysterious... or at least to me O_o. I think it's much better. And the edges are smoother :], as said. 17:25, January 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Nominations for replacement are at the bottom 01:58, January 17, 2010 (UTC)
