That image is gorgeous, I just wish it had his foot properly!

We need to overhaul all the icons, to be honest... the majority of our traffic comes from mobile users, and the mobile version of the wiki displays all the icons cropped to landscape within the categories - so really we need to use either the same proportions, or at least square images as icons. Which is super inconvenient for portraits of characters! the infoboxes on mobile also dominate the layout, so a portrait-shaped icon in the infobox fills the screen and hides the text. But with Cats, it really helps to have a full length or at least 3/4 shot of the character, since just a headshoot may not give someone enough information to recognise the character they're looking for. Plus, there's been a conscious effort to make sure the icons are drawn from the full range of worldwide productions through the years... it's a big job to change it all up!

I'm inclined to wait until this fabled software update occurs, because if that changes the way the icons are displayed, and we've just spent weeks updating them to an old standard, I might lose my patience!
