Bad quality images

Post by Hunchman801 »

Hi all,

We've currently got 160 bad quality images on the wiki. While a few of them have to be left as is because they come from development versions, the vast majority can be replaced and the wiki would greatly benefit from it!

Please feel free to contribute by taking good quality screenshots to replace the crappy ones we have. :) Thank you!

Wow, 160 is quite a number. I will see later what I can do. :)

Hmm, don't think I can be of much use for the majority of them, but I'll chip in where I can.

Right then, here's what I've got for now:

There's quite a bunch of them from Rayman Origins (like the latest ones you've uploaded). Anyone able to play the game in full HD can help. :)

Unfortunately, I've only got the PS3 for those, my PC doesn't have Origins and Legends, and higher resolutions could be gotten from better computers anyways. I'll admit the ones I've gotten were from YouTube videos, I'll be more than happy to see them replaced with the proper stuff.

I've been attempting the Small Caterpillars, but they're a lot more feisty than those still images let on, worse, they don't respawn unless you get a Try Again. Still, did you see the Begoniax I got above?

I'm trying to get some replacement screens for Rayman Origins at the least and I might be able to get some for Travel in Time as well. To be realistic though I don't know what we're going to do with the Rayman 3 ones that were from like Unseen64; where exactly would we be able to get better quality versions of those if that's all they could get?

I don't think we currently can, but it's there should something better be found or available.

Does the wiki need screenshots of the two PS Vita exclusive costumes from Rayman Legends? I can upload some (admittedly low-resolution) photos.

(Please note these were captured using the built-in camera function on the PS Vita system and then cropped using editing software):

Ray of Persia:

Glob Cell:

Perhaps these could be used as a placeholder until higher quality images can be obtained.

Well, I don't think they'd meet the quality requirements, but I'd assume having something there would be better than nothing.

Speaking of which, I'll be starting to get screenshots from Fiesta Run soon, as I've now unlocked all levels, just need to note them down on the article first.

Thank you, Disionity! Normally we don't crop screenshots but in that very case it'll probably do the job until we can get our hands on the actual artwork.

Well, R3 early production can't be in better quality, no rom is on Internet.

Indeed, Humch already acknowledged that, however, despite those dev images, we've still got a large amount of images that need and can be replaced with better quality versions. For instance, I know there's some images from Rayman Revolution in there, I'm pretty certain that one could get good high resolution images to replace those via emulator, and I know for sure that there are members here who are more than capable of rising to that task.

Don't be put off by the whole Wiki thing, it's just image uploading. If you're capable of getting improved images to replace those in the link that Humch provided, please do come forward, if you're not comfortable about the Wiki stuff, then you can always send the image to Wiki contributors who will then sort out the stuff for you.

In what language do I have to say that for everybody to understand? :boon:

Also, thank you for your recent uploads Master, those images are much better now.

I'm going to try and clean up the quality of some of the beta screenshots from the games. It still won't meet the quality requirements, but it should make the images look somewhat nicer. Would this be OK?

I don't need help, but if I upload them you can see if you can do anything else with them afterwards. I'm going to clean up the Rayman 3 and 2 beta screenshots, to make them have less noise. Only problem is that they are no longer the original, which is why I am delaying the upload.
