OK one pic of the Jaguar clouds coming right up. This one's from Allegro Presto and they have these instead of the sliding programming.

That happens on the PS1 version as well.
I know. I was merely pointing out that the demos in the Jaguar version show the clouds with eyes.

Right everyone, I think it's about time we propose a new article to feature - once we propose, we ought to try and polish it up as quickly as poss before I feature it.

Me, I'm thinking about featuring Rayman M.

I just noticed this.
RayWiki front page wrote:Discover RayWiki, a Rayman open encyclopedia, and share your knowledge about this best-seller game! But before you start, please read the basic rules and the manual of style.
But the Wiki isn't about one game... it's about a whole franchise. I think it should be reworded...

I was wondering if we should update the front page, considering how it hasn't changed in a while.

RayWiki's front page could talk about the reveal of the Xbox One and PS4 ports of RL.

The news section isn't updated as regularly as it probably should be, I know I've come about now and then asking about it.

"in Rayman Revolutions Bzzit takes Rayman to the Lost Islands"

You could maybe have a shot of Rayman in the boat?

Bumping, the Front Page of RayWiki is in serious need of some improvement, I think. We've had the same featured items for months and the news is barely updated.
The only issue is figuring out a decision process for featured items, and also getting the means to fix up the news.

I also did suggest collapsible navigation boxes in the main thread, just pop in a reply there on your thoughts.

I think we need to update EVERYTHING on the front page, even the trivia. why not make the featured article an enemy? I'd suggest begonaix. also I was curious about the "things to do" segment because it appears like R3 and M/Arena are finished and Rayman Rush could use some more screenshots.

I've gone and changed the trivia and the quotes, feel free to scrutinise and change if needs be. As for the other items, we'll need to collaborate on those, as I'm not sure what needs sorting, what's well sorted, and what material could be featured. Either ways, the Wiki needs to become a little more current.

for the featured image why dont we use one of the rayman legends concept art? and for the featured article we could find something post origins/legends to add variety.

Hmm, I'm all for it, but let's see what the others have to say.

On an unrelated note, I think some articles could do with some tidying up, I just went through the RO bosses to add the navigation for RL Characters on them, and frankly, some of these pages look really messy.
