This is a tough call. At least on #2, you can't see Penny's feet, one of which looks fine, but the other is drawn "oddly" and doesn't look like a foot at all.

But I like the poses in #1, they frame the forum better than #2's poses.

Is the Villain skin going away, or is this just a re-skinning of the area "behind" the forums (where the images of Statesman and the robot are now)? I always use the Villain skin, so I can tell at a glance whether I'm logged in or not.

This. So very, very this.

Anime PenYin and some refugee from (insert generic high fantasy franchise here)...yeah, that says "comic book superhero," doesn't it?

Oh, wait...

#1 would be my choice,#2 does not show all the detail that the #1 selection does!

They both look good.
#1 has a more still look to it. Both of them are more detailed in the armor. They both have the npc look in game though i just wish the characters looked like they were attacking.
#2 Has a more kickbutt look. The Details in the armor is a little diffrent from the first. Has a much better setting of action with the characters.

Everybody seems to hate #2 ... so I vote for #2 so it won't feel so bad.

No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.

Number 2 is the new loading screen in I23, so I think some people would prefer for the forum skin to be dfferent.

My vote goes for #1.
Get used to it. All option 2 is a flip of how they look at each other in the I23 Login/load screen.

Voted Option 1, BTW...

Thank you for the time...

#2 Penelope has this stupid/weird/goofy grin. When i23 goes live I will find a way to mod my login screen so I don't have to see that. It reminds me of a tattoo gone bad

It there a neither option? Her face looks dumb in both pictures. If i had to, it would be option 2 because you can't see her weird eyebrows and silly looking face.

#1 if i'm being forced to choose between just those two options.

Given the choice though i'd say an option of no skin would be nice - not that there is anything wrong with either one but when I have the option I always leave the skin turned off on any site or forum I regularly visit.

Sorry. I know some people are enthusiastic about the new images.
But it screams "WoW", not "CoH".

If it's a choice between #1 and #2, I choose neither.



Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

#1 is the winner, IMO.

The CoHverse is a diverse place


Here's a guy in spandex and a cape along with a Japanese style robot with a laser sword facing off against 2 archvillains - a spirit hunter in a bearskin from the land of the dead, and a negative energy version of a medieval knight with Excalibur, with the fight taking place in an alternative dimension fascist dictatorship:

Option 1 has the best poses out of the 2, But I do like #2 since it is more of a focus. Perhaps flipping the characters towards the center of the page instead of away from the center might help.
None the less I picked #1

Option #1 is slightly less horrible, but frankly, I don't like either of them. At all. I'd rather have a plain forum skin than have Penny staring at me while I browse the forums.

But she already watches you all the time, and knows everything that you do.
