Why do I feel like it's so hard finding 1920x1080 px photos 

just btw, don't know if this is helpful, but if you're looking for images on google you can look for exact size by typing in imagesize:1920x1080 next to what you're searching for (e.g. gfriend imagesize:1920x1080).

Quick question: we just submit photos here?  Nothing else to it?

spopo gave a good answer but we can also potentially resize them later! 

[WenSuelRene]

I'll begin my search for photos.

[spopo]

One of my favorites.  I know it's an oldie, but I think this aesthetic for them is super underrated.

Newer favorite.  Every single one of them looks fabulous in this photo.

I don't know if I've done this correctly, but I tried my best..  

Question: I'm assuming stills from MVs aren't allowed?

only official HD photos...not sure if MV stills would meet the latter half of that requirement

[love]

the introduction thread had this as an example for night vision...(would need to be resized though)

[eternal glow]

Idk if this one is allowed since I can't really remember where exactly it's from but I really love it 

Then there's the Fever ver. pic which is probably my favourite

 

[Chuan]

 I'm not gonna lie. There were some beautiful photos I saw. But because they did not meet the requirements of '1920x1080', I had to disregard them. I also like the suggestions shared above.

I forgot the site/location from which I took these photos. I assume all of them are official photoshoots. Some might have been taken from unusual places. In any case, I re-uploaded them to Imgur. I did not compress or re-size any of these images. I placed each of them in a spoiler and included the dimensions outside of it.

I think some of these photos I included do look nice. But, I feel some may look unsuitable as a header.

EDIT 1: These images don't meet the requirements. Sorry.

Moved back. Reuploaded another image.

[WenSuelRene]

This search is harder than I thought. Here's my one suggestion so far. 

Okay, but real talk since I know this ain't about to be picked.. Whatever we end up picking, can it PLEASE be a pic where all the girls are side-by-side. I don't want a header where members are covering up other members and someone can barely be seen.

well, that’s the good thing about voting, i suppose.  if there’s a pic that covers someone up, we can vote it out in the preliminary round ^_^

I personally would prefer the later ones. However, despite of them looking fabulous, I think the shadows would be a distraction to stare at them long enough.

The resizing would be fine if the photos we're getting are big enough in terms of resolution (definitely need more than 1920x1080) and have  enough headroom to make a proper crop. I'll help with the cropping if I'm able to be available

The fingertip one is indeed very adorable I don't mind seeing such smiles. I'd love to see it everyday

But personally maybe something a lil bit more polite/proper candid would do better (if we can ever find one lol

But that fever image issa bop

Meeting the requirement is one thing. To make sure all faces visible is another thing. 

Anyway, I personally like these 3 from yours. Not too old and I think doable for header making.

This is a very good example of what we should be looking for. I'm totally agree with side-by-side, or at least something like the crossroads photo used for example. Plus, we have enough headroom to make the crop. 

 

Btw, sorry to randomly jump in. I'm not around my pc so I can't contribute much but I hope my two cents would help y'all in finding materials! uwu

There are many images to choose from - the real issue is in the cropping. Using the template they supplied, I can't get a similar look to the Gfriend example posted. I've (badly) cropped these but can post the larger originals.

After/before voting, it might be wise to check our girls aren't cut out of frame or blocked by the overlayed panels.

(This image doesn't quite qualify) but it's awesome though:

A bunch of really good ones!  These are my favorites from the ones you posted.

[spopo]

oh I like that last official one too

[love]

i honestly think we have a good amount of selection rn...but i'll keep the suggestion period end date where it is for now in case those who haven't submitted any pics still want to  

we should also factor in that some of these might look excellent in dynamic vision but blinding/too white for dynamic night vision.  

edit: another thought...not sure how i feel about some of the magazine spreads/CF pics having huge logos...i like the pics without any words better..but maybe it’s just me? thoughts?

[Chuan]

I have three more suggestions. They are all taken from American Tourister Korea's Facebook photo page.

2048 x 1502

Spoiler

2048 x 1291

Spoiler

2048 x 1490

Spoiler

I agree in saying that we already have plenty. I would be happy if any of the suggestions above were used

agreed.  I like the plain photos.  The watermarks/logos are distracting.

These aren't bad either. But some seems to be heavily edited (yeah quite a few photoshoots tend to slap heavy editing to match what they want) which aren't up to my personal preferences.

Agreed. The photos that we're choosing should looks great on both dynamic and dynamic night vision.

And yeah huge watermark can be annoying which not limited to those watermarks that's fair in size but positioned all over the place (like the show ones fksgjahkg)

I like how clean the background, and how the photos aren't too zoomed in. They gonna help us when it comes to cropping later

 

ㅡㅡㅡ

 

Anyway, I've check the mock given by gfx team it seems like the full length 1920px gonna have less area shown vertically. So photos that's too zoomed in won't look good imo-
