So,I was reading some wiki pages and when I looked at the Bongo Hills page,I saw this:
Is this image official or someone ripped or created the map from multiple things?
Why green drums?And what are these things?

I played that part and there weren't any things.

Wait these images are from the RayWiki? I first saw them on Rayman-Fanpage.de

I believe this and other images belong to that Rayman-Fanpage.de,but I found them when I was browsing some pages on Raywiki.

The webmaster of rayman-fanpage.de once told me where these images came from but I can't remember exactly. Maybe an old official website? In any case, they were most likely ripped by Ubisoft.

I think those were originally available in the official Rayman website. However, I know that kgmassociates' page of Rayman 1's universe had these pictures.
If I look well to that, I think it is a "P" power-up.

Maybe these were extracted from an early version? That would be interested from an early development point of view. Of maybe the colour palette was just fucked up when they exported the map.

This is the website I'm talking about. I remember browsing on it when I was 11.

Hahah, I was browsing it at the exact same time. It's where I learned to use Rayman Designer.

Same thing here! The tutorial from this website is pretty well made, I even printed all the info and saved the papers in a dossier.

I'm pretty certain that's what happened, as you can see a lot of other graphical artifacts all over the place such as the recorders having some strange reverse-shading on the mouthpiece and some of the notes having oddly shifted hues and black bands.There's no way it was designed like that.
Since the background colour of Band Land is supposed to be green, I'd almost attribute the messed-up palette to wanting to have a the less eye-gouging blue background, if the blue was exported in the engine and not just edited in later.
