Saying goodbye to Tenchiforum

Yes, help with designing a new main page image, featuring the main characters, would be very appreciated, but it would have to actually look genuinely good as well.

Well, my guess is something that features the extended cast of characters from across several seasons. Something like this art by tumblr user harpuia:

I can try to help. Do you have an image in mind for the main page?

[antvasima]

Not particularly, but a very nice-looking collage featuring high quality rendered images of the main OVA cast standing beside each other would likely work well for us.

However, it needs to genuinely look better than the one that we use currently in our wiki's front page.

Well, a quick search online shows a pair of picture books, a game edition and a song book cover bouncing around auction sites:

Bonus Episode Companion Artbook


Bishoujyo Retsuzen / Dragon Magazine


Super Famicom game


Songbook (from Kikai's collection, omedetou on this rare find dude)

Bonus Episode Companion Artbook

I have that one too. Not scanned, afaik.

Bishoujyo Retsuzen / Dragon Magazine

I think it was scanned by JM already.

Songbook (from Kikai's collection, omedetou on this rare find dude)

Gonna scan that one soon...

The last image looks good enough to use if somebody finds a version with just the characters, better colours, and none of the text or symbols.

[antvasima]

Never mind. I found it via a reverse image search. I will ask members of my main community to render it for me, so we can use it for the front page of our wiki.

[WaitoKon]

Might I be called upon for this audacious task, good sir?


I can handle Etch-a-Sketch meme territory well enough.

[antvasima]

Thank you, but it is not necessary. I have added a rendered version of the image to our wiki's front page.

However, Dishonorable Knight thinks that our old front page image looked better, so I am currently waiting to see what Nonsuch Ned thinks regarding the issue.

I was pleasantly surprised to see the rendered image online that quick, glad you sorted it out. Anyway, as you probably know, when posting a hyperlink leading to the Tenchi Fandom main page (in Web 2.0 / social media news feed context) now produces a very crisp landing page image preview. Please keep these current changes good sir.

[antvasima]

No problem, but there is no guarantee that we will keep it. It depends on what Ned and Knight think.

Sorry, this is such an old topic, but, have you though of using Gimp?
