This very visual page is currently image-less, let's fix that with something cool.

This cover for Foundation and Empire came to mind. [1]

Portal 2 is a great example, have concept art [2] , [3]

and some from Remember Me, [4]

The Portal 2 images are the best. The first looks more like an archeological site to me and the third is too busy/dark.

Seems pretty intact to me.

I think 1.2 is the best of the suggestions, too.

Yeah, Chell looking at G La DOS's remains is best.

The Portal concept art is really good.

[up] That nails the tone pretty well, I'd say. [tup]

1.2 is the best of the suggestions so far, in my opinion.

That's not to say that it couldn't be improved upon, but it's definitely good enough.

[up][up][up] That one's got enough consensus; it's up, potholed, and tagged. Caption or no?

I think it works on its own.

I think it looks more desolate without a caption.

I dunno; I actually like that G La DOS quote [up][up]. Just put it in G La DOS text.

Eh, as somebody who's usually all for captions, I think this is one that works significantly better without one.

(...also I rather liked 1.1, but)

[up]I like it as well, but I don't think the technological bits are as obvious when shrunk down. It just looks like pillars that could be from any era.

Yeah, I agree, no caption unless we can manage to insert the wistful whistle of wind into the page.

[up][up] It'd make great Image Links material, at least.

I dunno, it's just an art style or medium source that we don't use too often, which kind of appealed to me. Can't deny Portal had the better Scenery Gorn, though.

This one's got enough dust on it; locking up.
