What I could salvage from it with google, archive.org and some old screenshots, since the game's website is dead.

Saga of the Metabarons, Mutant, LeoRoa, The Black Star, etc

Yeah, they're comics, but only one of them is an actual panel. I'll convert them to .png and give them their French names.

mario is a videogame. animated avatars are from videogames. a now you want comicbook avatars. "oh look, it's already bad, let's just add some more decline".

At this point why not just remove all avatars and allow posters to pick their own custom image.

Sounds like any vidygaym is ok. Should the pnp art go too?

Oh, and we've got star wars concept art now, so the rule you guys are talking about was completely broken by staff. You can't really think one of the seminal HeavyMetal illustrators, who inspired early Ridley Scott, is decline ffs.

Codex 2012
Should at least be able to tie them to video games in some way, beyond loose inspirations. It is the RPG Codex so PnP RPG stuff makes sense, and of course because DND is key to CRPGs, and Rogue Trader PnP stuff because there are tons of W40K games, etc.

I think those Star Wars concept arts should be removed because they are specifically made for the Star Wars movies.

Why not make avatars of Brom illustrations? Since he has a ton of stuff directly related to games, like Dark Sun illustrations and cover art for MageSlayer etc.
