Image choices

I an requesting feedback on image choice. There were several players for whom I had difficulty choosing which image from Commons:Category:2014 McDonald's All-American Boys Game to use. The ones that I remain most unsure whether I should swap images are shown below. However, you are free to suggest any others that I should consider swapping. I have only cropped about half of the images so far so if you like one that needs to be cropped I will get to it. Please just put a number and your signature in the votes area.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 02:25, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

  • None are ideal, in 3, best view, but he is just standing there. In 1, he is out of bounds, but I bet they missed it, plus hard to tell who it is. 2 is a better action image, but hard to tell who it is.--S Philbrick(Talk) 14:21, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
  • I am surprised at how much people want to see a clear view of the faces. I am beginning to wonder if I should be cropping pictures of guys waiting for the free throw shooter to shoot while standing in the lane. I have one of Booker like that. Of course, since he is standing totally still, the picture is pretty good. I have tossed a bunch of those types for action shots.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 23:55, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
  • For a picture representing a player, it should be a picture of the player IMO. Action shots get messy with multiple players and more about the action taking place(if i want to see dunks I'll youtube it). I'd like to see the pictures of waiting for free throw shots. I might be on my own on this. Littlekelv (talk) 23:03, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
  • I have shots like these: :File:20140402 MCDAAG Theo Pinson, Devin Booker and Justin Jackson at free throw line (1).JPG and :File:20140402 MCDAAG Theo Pinson, Devin Booker and Justin Jackson at free throw line (2).JPG. If Jackson wasn't making such funny faces these might be good shots of him. I think for Booker, one of these cropped might be best.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 01:15, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
  • Nothing is great there, but just for example look at Lebron's page. Most are him holding the ball, a couple action shots but focused only on him. There is a happy middle ground somewhere. (edit) Personally i think having a view of a full crowd in the background adds more as well for notoriety and importance. Littlekelv (talk) 18:26, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

  • 2 - I think I would rather some action.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:32, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
