"we"?? Because I'm keen on Sega art, but not so keen on Twitter compressing it. A higher quality source would please me greatly.
I knew I should have looked this thread before posting in the Frontiers one. But yeah, good for him. He deserved it.
My soul can only rest once the assets for this graphic are found I will acquire the rare poster and scan every inch of it if I have to, but this graphic NEEDS to be released somehow! The Sega Forever youtube community tab is a mirror of the twitter feed and doesn't compress.
I do a lot of the posting and going through the file archives for SEGA Forever stuff now. Monkey ball too. And yeah, Youtube does it without compression. So.. use that for SEGA Retro :P
Here's a neat trick for YouTube community images: Open the image in a new tab. Look for the section with "s800" (number will vary). Replace it with "s16000" and remove any text that's after if there is any. Example: https://yt3.ggpht.com/P7E2m2o52B0yW...SidUgiVXClD9armSy8fxu4J9PM28j1U7g=s1024-nd-v1 Now becomes... https://yt3.ggpht.com/P7E2m2o52B0yW...4XHf6SidUgiVXClD9armSy8fxu4J9PM28j1U7g=s16000
The Japanese Sonic Twitter account is holding a poll: the next piece of art is going to feature Silver and they're asking whether Elise or Merlina should feature alongside him This post I am making is code for EVERYBODY SPAM MERLINA QUICK DON'T LET THEM BRING BACK ELISE OH GOD OH FUCK
As much as I prefer Merlina, I don't think there's any chance of her winning. "She's from 06 and should be with the other 06 character" alone pushes Elise to victory.
I didn't even think about that. I just want to see what they'd do with Elise and get some cool art out of it.
I picked Elise. It was tough because I really, really want to see what the art would be for both. Though if it’s going to feature the poll character and Silver, I’d prefer to see him with Elise rather than Merlina.
