Menu images

What type of menu image do you prefer?

1) Box scan - example - letter A NES.
2) Cartridge scan - example - letter B NES.
3) Title screen - example - any other NES letter.
4) Screen shot - example - any GBC page.
5) Icon - example - any High-Score Flash page.

If the first and second link are in the same style as the third link then you need to do a hard refresh to clear your cache - press Control and F5 at the same time on those pages.

I do not have images for every game for options 1 & 2 so if we go with that then we will have to combine them with one of the others.

Option 5 would be too much work and so is just there for completeness - if it wins then I will go with second place.

Attached is an example of options 1, 2 & 3 for Super Mario Bros 3.

There's no sense in going with option 1 or 2 as you couldn't achieve all the images for it.

In the links above you can see what the percentage is and what it would look like if they were combined with the title shots.

I like the title screen shot, it seems to jog my memory the best, and we can be consistent for all the games.

I'm going to have to go with Title Screen as well. It's the nicest looking and most universally consistant, if you ask me.

I agree. Title screen looks the best.

One and Two are to clumpy to even give a second thought
and they take up to much space.

Where as three and five seem to just fit perfectly

I changed the images for Letters A and B back to the original title screen shots and I made images for all NES games. So now all NES games should have a proper title image. If I missed any let me know.

I also closed the poll.

Do a hard refresh. Control + F5. They are all updated. the old ones are still in your cache - browser's temp files.

The images that do not show up in the sig do not exist yet. Those images are different from the menu images. I thought about using the menu images for the sig. That would save the effort of making new images and would make them easily identifiable but it would take up a lot of room. It would look like the images on the home page (if you have any trophies) or in the user profiles.
