Forum:Solution Time: Images

Ok now I'm pissed. This is going to go on forever and will not end. I will start simply purging articles where there are image disputes (both past and present) if I must for us to get this shit down. I'm tired, you are tired. Everyone is tired. Nobody wants to compromise, this has been going on in the same dance for months.

We are going to solve this so both sides legitimately agree on. Not some grudgingly accepting of one side as "the best choice" no we did that before and we're still going through this. We are going to stop moving and pick a way that will solve everyone.--TheUltimate3 ~Keeper of Lore~ 14:02, March 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * With that said...what are you proposing? You could've at least given us options... --Cerez™☺ 14:04, March 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * I've had my solution and have been proposing it for months. Tabbing system or a dual images in the infobox. Both of which I lack the know-how to do unfortunately.--TheUltimate3 ~Keeper of Lore~ 14:07, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry to point it out, but i recall that for some reason are the tabbing system not really working on this wikia(the dual images in the jutsu infoboxes). --Gojita (talk) 14:10, March 31, 2011 (UTC)Gojita
 * Then we figure out how to make it work or we figure some other solution because our current situation ain't workin.--TheUltimate3 ~Keeper of Lore~ 14:11, March 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * I support you TU3!!!! Dual images in the infobox is a good system and actually it will satisfy both sides of discussion!!!! The smaller images (usually the anime ones) on top and manga ones on bottom! (just saying) ... and if this can't happen! Well, as i said with Roshi! "Roshi's anime image is good, it only shows one side of his face! On the other hand the manga pic shows a 3/4 of his face! So may be the anime one could replace the other one in his appereance section!! The manga pic should stay on the infobox!" Fu's and Yagura's pics are really good!!!! No differences for me!!! Put those images in their infobox and the manga pics in the appereance section since they show more their bodies... i think! --Kiba91 (talk) 14:12, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

I suppose I'll say my piece then I absolutely hate image stacking in the infoboxes. That said I have no problem with either type of image but I do have a preference for manga images when usable (even though we don't get cheques >_>) As long as the anime image is an accurate depiction of the manga character (ie no major deviations from Kishimoto's work). It won't kill us to have variety on here. --Cerez™☺ 14:12, March 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * but now that you are talking about stacking images... the difference you are talking from Kishimoto's work and anime's work are in a majority about the eyes... referring to Konan's color eyes... while someone stacks her images... what happen to Kurotsuchi's and and Hanzo's pics? They differ only because of the color! C's manga pic was left because of the form of the eyes!... so what are the "facts" that everyone is considering to left the manga pic instead of the anime pic? --Kiba91 (talk) 14:18, March 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * Ehh, the reason for hanzo's image is because while there is no differences between the irishes the eye itself is white in the anime, whille in the manga it is black like kakuzu's. On to the main subject. The problem appears to be that some users think we should use absolut accuracy and can't ignore small details, like colour variation. --Gojita (talk) 14:21, March 31, 2011 (UTC)Gojita
 * Stacking is a crude method that can potentially be refined. It's an option, one I'm willing to take. However, this is not a discussion on the differences between the two images, this is a discussion on how to use both of them.--TheUltimate3 ~Keeper of Lore~ 14:23, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

The it's simple. We're supposed to aim for accuracy. And this is pretty much what we're doing now...
 * Manga image used first anime image used later when animated.
 * If there's a coloured manga image then it's moved to the "appearance" section once there is no discrepancy with the anime image.
 * If there are, then the revere is done. --Cerez™☺ 14:30, March 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * i gave that just as an exemple! We're trying to reach a solution for this eternal battle from Anime and Manga pics! I never said to ignore details! (Just what happen to Ko's case!that's smth where the manga pic should have totally preference) But color eyes i think is just a detail! as you said... a small one!... anywho, i support TU3's option of dual images. Or at least we need to solve what will happen to the jinchurikis and the bijus! --Kiba91 (talk) 14:27, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

Alright, trying not to be rude here. But i believe you orignally wanted to discuss the dispute about which image to choose and then in your next comment suggested that we somehow use both. Thus i conclude the tophic is how to settle the dispute, not how to use both. I say this because in this discussion and the previous one, we already agreed on the fact that stacking is something most of us dislike. Once again, sorry i am not trying to be rude. --Gojita (talk) 14:31, March 31, 2011 (UTC)Gojita


 * you're not being rude!!! but the stacking image is a solution to satisfie everyone in here! I'm just supporting TU3 suggestion! that's all --Kiba91 (talk) 14:34, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

It was for this reason I told Ulti-chan to give the discussion guidelines....--Cerez™☺ 14:35, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

Eh... a little bit of tophic, but seeing how this affect the entire wikia and seeing how vast amount of contibutors we have, i would like to suggest that we somehow advertise this tophic other places on the wikia in the hopes that more poeple would voice thier opinion. --Gojita (talk) 14:38, March 31, 2011 (UTC)Gojita


 * Unless I typed it wrong, the solution I outlined was indeed ment to use both which would settle the dispute. As I originally said, this discussion is not about choosing one or the other  Ah that is where I said it. I didn't post it here apparently. When I said that will serve everyone, that is exactly what I ment. One side wants to use manga no matter what. Use manga no matter what. The other wants to use anime, thats fine we're going to use that too. Don't apologize, you just pointed out that I didn't say everything I ment in one place.--TheUltimate3 ~Keeper of Lore~ 14:39, March 31, 2011 (UTC)
