Changing the profile image (the image in the article's infobox, or the top image to the right of the introduction to a large majority of articles) is one of the most common proposed changes to articles on Avatar Wiki. Due to the regularity with which profile image changes are suggested, Avatar Wiki centralizes these changes on this page.

Procedures

  1. The proposer posts their suggestion(s) here. The proposer must support their suggestion(s) with a sensible reason for replacement ("it is an accurate representation of the character/plot").
  2. An administrator will announce the proposal on the community corner (this can be found below Hot Spots on Special:WikiActivity) if it is believed a grounded reason to initiate the image change process has been given in the original proposal.
  3. Discussion about the proposal can begin. If a discussion ensues and:
    1. no general consensus appears to develop between involved users, then a ballot will be placed forward;
    2. the people involved are all in agreement and after three days no one else voice their objections, then the image can be replaced without voting.
  4. The consensus of the proposal is carried out after three days, starting from the day the administrator approved the discussion.
    1. In case of proposals that regard the image of a newly created page, the proposal is carried out after 24 hours if every participant is in agreement. If at least one user disagrees, the discussion will carry on for at least three days.

Per other pages, once the library edition cover of the graphic novels is released that should be used on the page for the trilogy. Fire Pabu Sprite Ferret 20:31, August 12, 2018 (UTC)

The current image has a cluttered background, and to me the lightning is too dark and contrasted. -- MinnichiBSSTFanonSmiling Dai Li Sprite 19:24, June 24, 2018 (UTC)

I agree. Contrast is better in the proposed picture. Dcasawang1wall 00:12, June 25, 2018 (UTC)
Support, per proposal. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 00:17, June 25, 2018 (UTC)
I have to disagree here. Yes, the lighting is more even in the proposal, but I feel like that makes him look weirdly flat and featureless. I also don't like that his hair is a little longer in the proposal, covering even more of his face than it already is in the current, which isn't helped by the fact that it's just a little bit further away, making it even more difficult to discern details. And I might even argue that the shadows of the current do something to accentuate Zuko's dual nature, which is the most important part of his character. Aang Cosmic AvatarAang7 (My wall - My fanon) 16:51, June 25, 2018 (UTC)

I oppose as well. He looks a little awkward to me, with the shot not being as centered as the current profile image. His hair, per AA7 is a little too long and he does appear to look a bit expressionless. Tono555 Read my Fanon! 16:03, June 26, 2018 (UTC)

After thinking it over, I oppose for the same reasons as AA7. The lighting contrast and basic expression of the current image represent Zuko's character pretty well. --AvatarRokus Ghost (Message meRead my fanon) Energy Saga Dragons, Sieges and Volcanoes 20:40, June 26, 2018 (UTC)

Azula

My proposed image doesn't have other people in the background and displays more of Azula's dark, cunning personality if you ask me. Her entire head is visible, too. -- MinnichiBSSTFanonSmiling Dai Li Sprite 19:41, June 24, 2018 (UTC)

Approved for discussion. I'll have to oppose, however. While it is true that the proposed image shows more of Azula's likeness, her sideways glare and lopsided smirk makes for an odd profile angle and gives her a sort of cartoonish look. In other words: she looks weird. ― Thailog 23:30, June 24, 2018 (UTC)
I don't think she looks weird. I like the fact that she is alone and there is fire behind her. Dcasawang1wall 00:12, June 25, 2018 (UTC)
Against it, per Thailog. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 00:17, June 25, 2018 (UTC)
I agree with Thailog as well, the very slight smirk of the current shows her personality off better than the more cartoony look of the proposal. Aang Cosmic AvatarAang7 (My wall - My fanon) 16:44, June 25, 2018 (UTC)
I don't think she looks cartoonish. Her smirk is better, but the positioning does look a bit off and I'd rather have her looking forward. Tono555 Read my Fanon! 16:05, June 26, 2018 (UTC)

I'll support this one per Minn's proposal. --AvatarRokus Ghost (Message meRead my fanon) Energy Saga Dragons, Sieges and Volcanoes 20:42, June 26, 2018 (UTC)

Ursa's poison

The current focuses on Ursa pouring the poison in a vile, while the proposed focuses on the actual creation process, which I think is more suitable. Lady Lostris / 9?cb=20210808202057 SOAP 16:30, March 25, 2018 (UTC)

The current picture is just a plain black-and-white picture, so not really colorful. I think the proposal would fit in better with the wiki's overall bright colored themes and this picture also happens to be more recent. Korra2000 (wallcontribs)

Jargala Omo

Proposal #3 will be the new infobox image.
Please do not edit this discussion.

I think that the change of the image is obvious, as the currently doesn't give us a clear image of Jargala. I have chosen this one because, by reading the comic, I thought one of these are perfect suitable for the character (I don't have any preference between 1 or 2, I'm neutral). {{subst:Usuario:Kyawaterbender/autosig}} 19:17, February 8, 2018 (UTC)

Approved for discussion.
A change is definitely needed due to obvious reasons, but I am wondering (I haven't read the comic myself yet) if there are other images of her available as well. I find the angle in both images to be lacking. They're both still better than the current, however, so if there are no other suitable images available, then I vote for #1 since at least that one's a semi-frontal complete head shot. Lady Lostris / 9?cb=20210808202057 SOAP 19:02, February 13, 2018 (UTC)
Since you asked, I went through her two scenes again, and I found the third proposal, which I took the liberty of adding here. This is the most frontal shot of her that is not from so far that you can't make out any detail, but I will say that proposal 1 is better when it comes to detail than this. I'm not 100% sure which should count for more, but I do think #3 is the best one so far. Aang Cosmic AvatarAang7 (My wall - My fanon)​​ 14:58, February 15, 2018 (UTC)
I'd say #1 and #3 are the best options, tending more towards #3. #1 is good but feels a little too close, whereas #3 seems at a better distance and looks a lot cleaner. HAMMEROFTHØR (wall) • 19:47, February 20, 2018 (UTC)
Having take a look to the three photos, I will say that I'm between my proposal #1 and #3. Maybe #3 is more suitable in terms of distance and position.--{{subst:Usuario:Kyawaterbender/autosig}} 11:26, February 21, 2018 (UTC)
Proposal #3 is the best by far. Tono555 Read my Fanon! 17:17, February 21, 2018 (UTC)

I'm proposing this largely because she looks to be about nine in her current picture, and seeing how she just turned 18, I think it's only fair to update her picture to the one from her Wikipedia page. Aang Cosmic AvatarAang7 (My wall - My fanon)​ 17:10, November 11, 2017 (UTC)

Approved for discussion.
I'm rather neutral on this.
I can see the reasoning for the change, but I don't see the need for the change; considering she voiced the series three years ago when she was still a child, it sort of makes sense to also show her as one. Lady Lostris / 9?cb=20210808202057 SOAP 18:25, November 19, 2017 (UTC)
Okay, in that case, I feel like I should point out that according to Wikipedia, the proposal was taken in 2014. And even if, the current isn't bad or anything, it's just more that I feel like it should be updated to a more current picture.Aang Cosmic AvatarAang7 (My wall - My fanon)​ 20:44, November 19, 2017 (UTC)
I'm gonna say that we don't update the photo, if anything just because it sets the precedent that every actor should have an up to date picture. People like Zach Tyler Eisen don't have an up to date photo and I really really don't want to set that precedent. – Srijay KTechFilmer 21:28, November 19, 2017 (UTC)

Ok this is insanely straight forward. The dude's eyes actually look open. Plus it's more of a headshot than a full on body shot which is always more desirable. – Srijay KTechFilmer 01:15, November 9, 2017 (UTC)
