The Media Page

Post by PKPenguin321 » #168203

Specifically, this page: https://tgstation13.org/media.html

While the links at the bottom are mostly fine (aside from being rather old), the images are super out of date. Just look at the sprites of those weeds, those windows, the old asteroid (with the red walls and everything), all of it.

We could use newer, fancier images. Things that'll really sell the game to a new player. The pictures we have are for the most part good, but by themselves don't exactly scream "PLAY THIS GAME" to me. So, what I think we should do:

1. Update the existing images. The least necessary step since they're just sprites, but it would be nice to have.
2. Make new images. Some ideas for images are a gang defending their dominator, a cult (complete with cult robes) around the big new nar'sie rune with gibs everywhere, an assistant running from a loose singularity, stuff like that.

These images can be easily staged via a local test server, if anybody wants to make them.

Speaking of that page, there are plenty of articles that should be added.

Wouldn't be that hard to update the images with a more modern interpretation.

There already exist updated versions of those images on the wiki. They still have the red mining walls, but use the current resin, windows and medbay colours.

Setting the tool box, now bloodied, back on the table; I went to heal myself with a medkit. I clubbed myself in the head with that too.
I've come a long ways from asking how to switch hands.

Tele-man somehow dies and gets its looted by an atmos tech who managed to use it to send two nuke ops to lavaland, who were then surrounded by several very angry people from earlier and some extra golems on top of it.
Captain dies, gets cloned/revived, lasers the guy holding the disk into crit to take it back.

Most of that is very out of date

No the point is you can go ahead and make those changes right now, it would not be very hard.
