Hi there.

 

I've been browsing through the Tip.it quest guides, and I have noticed that many guides (particularly the older quests before HD was released) contain old/low quality JPEG or just outdated images. Would it be a bad idea for these guides to get an HD makeover, similar to the way the Bestiary is being touched up? An example of what I'm talking about is the Legends' Quest guide, I feel that those pictures could be in a bit better shape :P

 

 

 

I realize that a point about image loading time could be made, which is why I'm asking if this is worth going into.

 

 

 

Personally, since I venture into old quest areas quite often (because of my True World Map thread), I would be able to provide any needed pictures to make the old guides look quite nice :thumbup: (I wouldn't be able to take screenshots of cutscenes, which is how other players who haven't done these quests could help).

 

 

 

Just a thought.

 

 

 

EXAMPLE:

 

Current Legends' Quest pictures:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

HD Replacements:

 

 

 

 

Well, you answered your own question, really. We wouldn't have used jpgs for the old low-def pictures if we were not constrained to keep page loading size down ... think about the lag you get on more graphics-intensive sites, lol. :-w

 

 

 

If you find a really bad jpg, and you have a picture to replace it that isn't much bigger, please offer it - but tell us the sizes of the old versus the new. High def screenshot pics just can't be reduced to a decent file size.

 

 

 

Thanks for your concern.
