    LT: I remember pretty much all of these from last time. They all still have poor resolution. The lil' green and purple things needs transparent backgrounds, not white background. The CV Death one is cool, but he's on a black background and over half his body/cloak is black, so it just blends into the background, which is no good.

    Last time, they weren't resizes, they were fan-made gifs... this time, they were actual resizes. Death just needs a better source gif, it was crap to begin with. The High Quality source art loses alot when you resize it that small. I don't see how the Rufus is any worse than the Cloud that I am already using. Regardless, I'll get the Mooninites to you as soon as I can though, I didn't notice that they didn't have transparancy.

    LT: Well, if the art doesn't look good enough when you resize it, that's either the fault of the original picture size or the program used to make the resizes. Personally I stick with Photoshop and don't mess with anything else. No matter what program you're using though, these resizes aren't sharp enough, and that's why I didn't take them. Otherwise they mostly look good.

    Personally, I agree with you that the Rufus picture is better than your Cloud avatar. However, the Cloud one is from the very beginning of the forums 4+ years ago when the image quality was generally weaker and less picky. Right now, we're generally going for images that look hi-res and high quality.

    The Before Crisis ones come from this wallpaper

    LT: This art is cool enough. If someone could make high quality resizes of some of the heads, I'd take them.

    Of course, since I don't have the capacity or patience to do anything in gif format, I'm leaving this to others to do it.

    Boy does it take some F'king patience... .gif pisses me off more than warm beer and a cold woman.

    Cleaning these up, will post clean ones later, unless someone wants to help out.

    rufus2.gifrufus3.gifrufus.gif(don't know which one I want to edit yet)

    Also, I know about the size issues (some are 33x33) and that big one, that will be cleaned up on the update

    LT: Uh yeah, well, I know these are rough, but let's point out the obvious. The first Shinra logo is fine, except that it's a JPG rather than a GIF. The others below it look like they're made in MS Paint and look cruddy and grainy, so don't even bother trying to get them up to shape. We're looking more for already-made pictures that have been resized, not bootleg fan-art stuff. We have some bootleg Street Fighter ones from WAY back, but otherwise no fan art is allowed unless it looks ridiculously professional/high-grade (e.g. OCR-tan). The green and purple mothers with their arms down are ok, but need transparency for the white background and, as you know, need to be in the right size.

    Be nice, man! All I have at work is mspaint... This was just for the Idea... I got Corel at home, gonna fix em up good. Trying to get a few more better ones in, but rather than "one at a time them" I'll finish it up this weekend and blast you with them, shotgun style...

    In the mean time President Shinra: Any good?

    (so I can know if I'm close "quality wise" with the rest?)

    LT: Only as a judge am I mean. :lol: The Shinra here is decent overall. Good resolution, relatively good transparency done. The only problem is the proportion, where you can tell the height was squooshed relative to the width. Don't sub anything where an image shrink is not 1:1, otherwise it's easily gonna look squished like the Shinra pic. Otherwise, it's pretty good just not quite useable, but your others ones should probably be good. And yeah, giving me a bunch at once is preferable to 1-by-1. 1-by-1 ad nauseum, I start disregarding stuff.
