This has happened to me on SEVERAL occasions as of late, I think it has something to do with your latency and lag. times I'm lagging, (I like to jump before activating fly) it will go into that odd flypose in a jumping-upwards animation, but everybody else sees it normally.

*snip* Screwy flypose, don't remember how this happened:  *snip* |
Speaking of the sideways skirt, it did kinda look cute but ... no.
Then there's the classic (and still happens sometimes, I think) 'hairless heads through glass'.
Remember when Faultline went through its overhaul and the old sg base exit was in the wrong place if you had the old portal?
And the 'cowering on the steps of Atlas' effect?
I put that one to good use.
At one point when they added and started mucking with sliders...

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

This isn't that odd a sight today, but it was back in 2005. The bug was basically that if you had a two-handed
"club" style weapon and toggled on Unyielding (or Rooted, I think), you'd do the Council Ascendant "shield
mode" animation.
This is a bug, but probably not the bug you think it is.
Remember this place? You could get there by getting underneath the map in Peregrine Island then using
/stuck while under the arena. You probably still could get there if you found a way under the map.
There was also this bug that made certain enemies using weapons not available to players through weapon
customization hold their weapons upside-down. Some of them actually looked pretty good:
And others, not so good:
Finally, I think my Portable Workbench might be the clingy type...
Issue 16 made me feel like this.

It just occurred to me I'd find more weird bug screenies if I looked in my TEST screenshot folder.
There was about a week at one point on test where Gauntlet was making ALL the effects of powers happen
to up to 5 enemies, and not just the Taunt effect. Needless to say, many powers became riotously funny,
Knockout Blow in particular.
Orient yourself just right and hit the right keys and you too can become POWDERED TOAST MAAAAAAAAN!
The updated Sonic Resonance graphics didn't look so great at first if you had shaders turned off.

Not from years ago, but yesterday. I made my ice sword look like ice. The white trail behind it is the mist that is supposed to be swirling around it.

They are talking about a thumbnail linking to a thumbnail (or a picture barely bigger than the thumnail), which is pointless.

* Defraggler * Program Security Scan * PC Performance Scan *
>_> I only have one that's barely bigger and that's because it was cropped to show the relevant part. *shrug* I don't want to break the forums with huge pictures, or slow people's rigs down by having endless huge images.

I haven't really encountered a lot of bugs in my 4 year stay with this game, other then the big ones that pretty much everyone had.
I did have a funny game bug once though, whilest travelling trough the midnight club on my peacebringer a +2 level void hunter spawned.
I am not sure if it was truly a bug, or a Game Master having some fun but oh well, I prevailed in the end.

The bottom line is you misunderstood NuclearToast's post, which is clear from your statement "Sorry, but I will continue to link to thumbnails....". The thumbnail is not what is linked to. The full size picture is what is linked to.

That "clingy" portable workbench was WIN.
Hilarious!

The clingy workbench made me burst out laughing. Again when I came back to it later. So funny.
Most of the bugs I've got screenshots of are the boring sort that are basically just pictures of combat logs. Like that time Twilight Grasp was healing me twice, but only if I was moving backwards at a fast pace and only sometimes. I could never reliably reproduce it, but it was very strange.
Regardless:

Oh, well. How about a few more

Funny, you don't LOOK like a Troll...
So maybe building a parking lot in the middle of a swamp wasn't a good idea.

Actually, it looks like the more recent variety of the bug, which is that St. Martial converted to the full CoH environment palette. Note the bright green grass on the Giza's villas.|

And for the record, people are not deliberately linking to thumbnails. Due to the way that the forums parse images if you have them turned off, it links you to the thumbnail because that's the actual image on the page. It then dumps the hyperlink to the proper image.
There are two workarounds. One, removing the "th_" or ".th" from the URLs will give you the full image. Secondly, people could just post the direct link instead of thumbnails. They're almost always worthless anyway, honestly.
Never surrender! Never give up!

It must have been nice for the villain areas to look good for a change.
