Infobox pic

Is this still the best we can do?

It was decided by discussion some time ago that the infobox pic was the best possible pic we could have of McGann, given his singular performance. Now that he's had two performances, though, the question can be opened up again. Anyone have strong feelings as to whether the image should be from the TVM or Night of the Doctor?

Even if Eight's appearance towards the end of his life is more representative, Night of the Doctor simply does not have the best lighting. If a well-light left-looking image of Eight from NOTD can be found, though, I'm all game.

I suppose one question I'd have to ask, seeing as how I'm only somewhat familiar with the Lucie audios and none of the books or comics: is it the TVM or Night appearance which is more representative of everything else in those 17 years in between (prose and comic depictions, and any narration describing how Eight looks in audio), particularly short hair versus wig? -- Tybort (talk page) 01:41, November 28, 2013 (UTC)

In the Short Trips stories, he is described as having shoulder length curly brown hair. Shambala108 ☎ 02:06, November 28, 2013 (UTC)

If you want a pic from NOTD would this do?

Will this do?

If not, what about this --> [[1]] from the TVM? MrSiriusBlack ☎ 14:47, December 18, 2013 (UTC)

Here are some guidelines to what we look for in infobox pictures: Tardis:Guide to images. Unfortunately, the image you've suggested here doesn't quite meet the guidelines. It's not close-up enough, and it's a bit dark. Shambala108 ☎ 15:21, December 18, 2013 (UTC)
