Shouldn't this health orb look like the one in the game?[edit]

@Chieftain Alex: I uploaded a more recent screenshot of the orb with its Endurance bars (and used that same image on the Endurance page), and also they seem to have changed the tone of red. I don't understand the comment you wrote when reverting it. Do you mean making the background transparent? Is that necessary? (of course I didn't crop out the orange bars, I wanted them in there because that's what the orb looks like in-game :P ) --Alad 06:54, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

I made a damn ugly cropped one--Relyk ~ talk > 08:58, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
My main issue at the time was that this was almost entirely used on a large number of userpages, and that changing the image would result in their pages being changed / dimensions stopping working. The description I made was that when you'd cropped the image to be tight to the red health orb, you'd accidentally removed some of the orange endurance bars too! Pages like User:Luke.out still have a small issue since the endurance bar has been moved? whatever. they can update their own templates. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 11:20, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
My png image isn't transparent even though i swear I removed the white space. I died a little. You would think someone would upload a copy for use in userspace though.--Relyk ~ talk > 11:25, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
epic skillzTM ...fixed. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 12:22, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
Lol, I must be drunk... I don't know what you're talking about, Alex. Or we're not seeing the same picture. The original picture didn't have an orange bar. I uploaded a new one with with bars, and I kept every pixel of the globe and bars in it (I didn't leave any margin around the bars, though). I didn't crop the picture to be tight to the red orb as you say, and as you can still see. :) And those user pages never had the orange bar on them because the orb they were using didn't have one :) LOL. What I'm curious about is how come your new orb is a dark red like the one from 2011? Did you make a new screenshot or did you pluck the bars and paste them on the old pic? ---Alad 16:22, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
Alex doesn't own the game, he copypasted it--Relyk ~ talk > 16:45, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
@ alad; some of the user pages have a rectangular endurance bar which is where I presume it originally was. per this
+ Yep I did use the old image, I hadn't noticed the gradient had been changed - I've edited it with a true gradient to hopefully match ingame without being badly cutout ^ -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 17:24, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
Looks much better now, thank you! --Alad 22:41, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
