::::You might be onto something if the drawing had the character looking to the left, but he's also looking directly at the "camera" there, so that's of minimal help. Good thought, though, and if more illustrations are released in the fullness of time, I expect that'll be something to keep an eye on. --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 15:23, June 8, 2020 (UTC) | ::::You might be onto something if the drawing had the character looking to the left, but he's also looking directly at the "camera" there, so that's of minimal help.

Photo
Is there a better photo we can use for Giles? I'm terrible at doing images, though. Never Forget The Day The 456 Arrived ☎ 14:53, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
- The whole of When to Die is stretched (see the infobox image for Brian Williams (When to Die) to see how badly) so I would support a new image from the YouTube video. -- Saxon (✉️) 15:10, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
- Problem is, while it's higher-quality footage, Shadows of Doubt also has a "webcam template" thingie overlaid over it the entire time. Giles is also facing the camera for most of it. The current image is far from ideal, but I'm not sure how the Wiki policy calculus works out between a somewhat distorted, low-quality image in the right pose and without any overlays, versus a non-distorted, higher-quality image that isn't facing in quite the right direction and has a slight overlay. --Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 15:15, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
