Currently nominated

Twilight scene

In the interest of having at least something available to be voted on, I'm gonna suggest this image. To me, it's a visually interesting and dramatic composition that nicely shows off the graphical aspects of Twilight. User:Adamcox82/sig 17:20, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Support

1. I love it. It shows twilight princess' dark side.--Link hero of light 19:52, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
2. It's gloomy, it's almost depressing, and it shows the most exciting thing about twilight princess the darkness in hyrule, I LOVE IT!--Onox13 21:27, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Opposition

Phantom Hourglass scene

I think we definitely need a featured image from the most recent game in the series, and I really like this one. Having said that, I couldn't decide which version to choose, so I've decided to leave the decision up to you! When voting in support, please start votes with A: or B: to indicate your preference.

File:Ph scene 1a.jpg Option A

Option B

Support

1. A. I think it's a pretty cool picture and there hasn't been too many featured PH nominations yet!ZeldaGirl96 20:06, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
2. A: I gotta admit, I like this image a lot. User:Ando/sig 21:27, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
3. I love option A, its faded borders zooming in on the main characters is simply epic. User:MARKOL/sig 17:30, 16 August 2008 (EST)

Opposition

Adventure of Link Sword

File:AoL Sword.png

This is the sword that was featured on the box art for The Adventure of Link. It took many long hours of work to get this image out of it. It is a beautiful image. And our more-picky members cannot single this one out like they did to the excellent Master Sword one. Yes, The Adventure of Link is the most hated (or least-liked) of the canon Zelda games. But there is little else from the game with this quality.User:Mjr162006/sig 19:22, August 21, 2008 (UTC)

1. It's a little small, but otherwise it's a very nice image. Better (and more original) than the previously nominated Master Sword. --Felicia's Champion 22:42, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
2. The sword I love from the game I hate. Epic! User:Seablue254/sig 01:20, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
3. I'm going to throw in with this one. I've been going through the game again, and have gained an awesome respect for the power that this weapon possesses. Does this one even have a proper name? No matter. Nook 07:44, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
4. Well, I'd certainly agree that the image itself merits being featured. It does present a bit of a conundrum though. As I understand it, this is the only sword found in AoL, and it is widely believed to be the same as the Magical Sword found in LoZ, as stated in the article. Furthermore, zelda.com suggests that the Magical Sword and the Master Sword are one and the same! In terms of featuring the image itself, the ambiguity of the subject matter does worry me slightly - but I still support it. User:Adamcox82/sig 16:58, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
5. I really like this one, i was just scrolling down and said "THIS IS THE ONE!", so i nominate this. Luroberto 19:53, 22 August 22 2008 (UTC)

Opposition

Toon Link

File:Hidden11.jpg

This picture failed before, but only because it is a spoiler. I think that Super Smash Bros. Brawl has been out long enough and most people have unlocked Toon Link by now.--Link hero of light 21:52, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
