Hmmm. Possibly. I see some potential issues with shrinking and adjusting option 1. Oh well. I just thought it was funny. It always stinks when the best laid plans get mangled and I feel for the team. No one wants this kind of accident to happen.|

I always liked both anyway and didn't vote because either was fine with me.
Why Blasters? Empathy Sucks.
So, you want to be Mental?
What the hell? Let's buff defenders.

I chose option 3 but since there's no option 3 *null vote*
Also...
I chose Option 2.
So, I figure that is why we really got option 2.

Thank you so much for not using that horrifying "PENELOPE YIN WILL DEVOUR YOUR SOUL" skin (she'll also devour your skin). I agree that Yin's body takes on some Liefeld-esque proportions in what we have now, but at least my eternal soul remains intact (such as it is).

Wow. Way to ignore the poll there.
Do us a favour and just withdraw the poll next time and stop pretending that surveys like this make any kind of difference.
What a disappointment.

Despite being entirely satisfied with the results, I have to agree that it's kind of pointless to have a non-binding poll.

They can't. You've been linked multiple times to explanations why.
It's called a "transverse costal facet" and exercising does not make it go away. You cannot look at someones butt at that angle AND see both breasts with your arm in that position with your leg drawn up that way. That's just not the way the human skeleton works.
I don't find the poll to be useless at all.
Some of us are enjoying the results! And it is likely to produce entertaining results for some time to come. 
(Seriously though, come on... are you really upset because they made some mistakes and they had to abort the options they were nice enough to intend to let us decide upon?)

It makes sense that if there were problems with the proposed layouts they would use a new one but they could have at least used the character art that got the most votes. I think most people were more concerned with that than anything else. I voted for the other one simply because we're all going to be seeing plenty of this image in the first place.

Also, reading the entire thread--as you suggested earlier--would show that the option that the forum base voted for was not the one that was selected.
And that's the joke, Ted.

EDIT: The background images *WERE* fixed/properly resized on my phone with both heads in full view for a split second and then reverted back to the headless version. The forum itself resizes just fine, and the old Statesman/clockwork image always worked fine. Not sure why this background is having issues.

Top 4: Controller, Brute, Scrapper, Corruptor
Bottom 4: (Peacebringer) way below everything else, Mastermind, Dominator, Blaster

If you take option 1 and option 2, and have to edit them to just show the top half of the bodies instead of the original idea of havng rthe 2 figures down the side of the forum, then the one they chose is a better fit.

are we supposed to see something different in the forum?
i still see clock and states above the forum
Shame that we have to go with option 2 despite option 1 winning for such simple technical reasons. A rework of option 1, even just showing the faces would have been a ton better given the overwhelming vote for #1.
