Something Kapus and I were discussing the other night. You know on the front page, the categories with the pictures there? I mean these:
| Heroes | Anti-Heroes | Villains | Super Forms |
| Locations | Objects | Roleplays | Fan Fiction |
| Tutorials |
We noticed that some of these pictures were, well, rather unfitting. I mean, let's look at them, shall we?
- The Heroes picture: Now, this guy may be a hero, but with the way that fiery background matches up with his battle stance, it makes him look more of an Anti-Hero, than an actual hero.
- Anti-Heroes: You wouldn't be able to tell that this guy was an anti-hero at first glance. If anything, he looks like The Lancer. (In other words, the hero's right-hand man, the guy he can turn to for just about anything.) And he looks somewhat silly. There's no way that picture could tell you he's an anti-hero.
- Villains: Well, I suppose it IS fitting. But it could use a change, possibly.
- Super Forms: This is the one that really irks me. It looks like a Dark Super form. If it's not a Dark super form, it's most definitely not a friendly normal one. This gives a rather morally negative impression of the super forms.
- Locations: It's just fine.
- Objects: It would be fine, if it wasn't for the fact that Fanfictions is already a book. I think we need a different picture to give more variety.
- Roleplays: This one bothers me. Not just because it's just Sonic breakdancing, but it's because I have no idea what to put here in replacement. What would a fitting picture for a roleplay category be?
- Fanfictions: An open book sounds about right.
- Tutorials is fine, as well.
So you see, 5 out of 9 aren't really fitting. When we begin cleaning up the front page, I want to make the suggestion of changing the pictures to something better.
