All my renders are still stored on my computer in their unresized form - the ranks I delivered could be easily resized to anything up to 600 px wide. The rest of the ranks would take more work though, I presume, and we would start running into problems for the R1 ranks unless we find artwork for all the characters we want to include.

I think the ranks are just fine as they are now, but I guess they could increase in size if you guys all wanted them to.

Also, I think Image turned out pretty well, no?

If anyone wants the new rank list to ever come out, please help with the avatars to correct!

And as a reminder, that was this:
Spanex wrote:Red henchman, Reflux 1 and Mr Dark rank's template corners look odd. (pixely and smooth at the same time)
The Robot, Razoff and Jano ranks are going outside of their border. (Razoff is probably okay)
Bad Murray and Mr Sax ranks somehow have one pixeled corner while the rest is smooth.
I'll see if I can help out later today after studying for my exams tomorrow, hmkay?

I beg you guys to change the Electoon rank to the RO one, or make it smooth.

I'll check Droolie's files and see whether there's a good sprite in there to form an Electoon picture out of. The ones I can find on the web are awful, in my opinion, because the Electoons are all displayed in their overjoyous state. They may be happy to be freed, but Origins seems to portray them as loons, whereas in Rayman 1 and in the rank we currently have, they show a little more modesty or at least contained joy.

I already suggested before the substitution of the Electoon and Antitoon for the RO sprites, but the issue was really the sprites themselves.

Antitoon from RO? Do you mean Darktoon? I'd like to do that, actually. I'm looking through the sprites now to see if I can create anything nice enough to post.

Oh yeah, I nearly forgot to say one last thing. The image of the Red fish with the trident(fork?) is stretched.

@Shrooblord Yes, if the change was considered, in this case it would be the RO Electoon and the Darktoon to replace the Antitoon. I think it wasn't only considered because of the lack of good sprites alone.

And I found two more ranks that need fixing. That makes for 3 more fixes.

Here they are all fixed. I'll give the list one final check after you update it, Hunch.

Thank god you're here Spanucks!

Everyone feel free to improve the Electoon avatar, but it has to be from the original game. We should even change the Antitoon avatar to one using an image from the original game.

We're almost over, but I believe there were some other concerns, am I wrong?

And as concerns the trident fish, we have the original artwork here.

I made some ranks. I'm still doing the Darktoon though - hang on. I reconstructed the fish one and tried to stay as true to the original picture as I could.

I made the last Electoon rank resemble the one we currently have. Thought it might be a nice touch. ;)

EDIT:
Seeing as Hunch posted, I won't be working on the Darktoon anymore. A shame - I'd like to have done him the most.

Well, you can still post it, maybe someone will want it as a special rank!

Also:
Rulez wrote:The Electoon looks really meh to me. It would look better as the RO one, or just a different one. That, or anti-aliasing.
The Antitoon could be more smooth.
The Tribelle looks meh too, someone posted a better one earlier.
The Paluchard - anti-aliasing.
The Rayman 3 Teensies need it too (except for maybe the Grand Minimus).
Henchman 800's template looks weird.
Not sure about that one, but Master Kaag seems to need anti-aliasing too. Perhaps my eyes are just tricking me.
The Rayman 1 bosses could look smoother.
Tarayzan and the Magician too.
Some have been corrected but some people might want to improve the others.

You guys must have better eyesight than me, because all of the ranks look fine in my eyes.
