File talk:Yarnek.jpg

Is it possible to have this picture in a more "portrait" aspect please? Also, its head looks a bit shiney, does anyone else see this? I've not seen the episode, so I don't know if the Yarnek is meant to look like that... Zsingaya Talk 07:34, 22 February 2006 (UTC) I do think landscape 4:3 is good approach for MA in most cases, but of course not all. For article layout purposes, the width is the adjustment point, giving landscape more practical versatility in sizing. Landscape images take up far less page-space than Portrait images set at similar width. I think "space" around the character, like here with Yarnek, gives context to the environment he appeared in. Similarly, I'd rather see head & shoulder shots that show some costume or uniform than a closely cropped face only shot. Anyhow, that's my taste. Let me know if you come across other images of mine that need work, and I'm happy to do it. --Aurelius Kirk 11:26, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Being that this is a very "alien" alien it is more significant to show the entire creature. --Alan del Beccio 07:37, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, yes indeed, I just wondered what the benefit of uploading basically the same shot was, over your previous image. Zsingaya  Talk 07:39, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh...that's not what I gathered from "portrait aspect". --Alan del Beccio 07:46, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, sorry, maybe I didn't make myself clear. What I meant was like an A4 piece of paper in portrait rather than landscape.  At the moment, there's lots of space taken up with rocks rather than just the character.  Zsingaya  Talk 07:53, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Like the Mugatu (replaced, btw), I'm responsible for this new version. Perhaps I've been too enthusiastic about uploading caps I've thought I could improve upon. I'll try to keep it to a minimum, since my track record doesen't seem to be improving. I'll be happy to upload a cropped version, or maybe you'd just prefer to revert to the old.
 * BTW, the "shiny" bit was part of the reason I posted a new version of this image. Excalbians had "headlights" that flashed when they talked, a detail missing in the previous image. I dod over-sharpen the head a bit though, and that's corrected if you want a new version. --Aurelius Kirk 12:24, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Wow, I didn't know anything about Excalbians, so yeah, knowing that their head flashes when it talks, would be useful to know. I'd still prefer to have a slightly cropped image, if thats ok with everyone, just showing a part of the surrounding rocks.  Zsingaya  Talk 16:55, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
