[QUOTE="Klaus, post: 3816969, member: 607"] Your criticisms would be valid if they weren't SO wrong. The fighter in the first image is turned a bit more than sideways, and his eyeballs indicate that he's looking at the elf magic-user. He is "behind the wizard"? You can judge by the wizard's reaction that everyone (except the elf) were surprised by the dracolich, so the fighter was actually at the front of the party. And "overdone wierd "double pointy finger" spellcasting pose"? You do realize we have somatic components to represent exactly this kind of thing, right? In the "ice dragon image", you do realize the people "about to fall" are on a boat skimming over ice at high speed, and that said boat was just hit by a gargantuan white dragon. The "about to fall" poses are reactions to the impact. The "minotaurs and magic spears" (actually, a staff): standing there? Can't you see the lines of magic energy surging up from the staff and crashing down on the front minotaur's shield like a wave? And the back minotaur is warily (and angrily) circling the wizard to find an opening. In "sword vs. staff", the snow and hair of the fighter are indicative of his movement. If you take a picture of two people clashing their weapons, you'd end up with a picture of two people with their weapons touching. It's not an animated gif. [/QUOTE]
