Added Usagi, Buwaro, and Digger.

Just for the sake of discussion, why is Usagi a better page image than each of the Star Fox ones?

[up] Because Usagi is actually doing something badass rather than posing.

Myself, I'm cool with the images of Star Fox posing with an explosion or in a particularly dynamic pose. But Usagi is also good (would be better if the image wasn't slightly blurry though)

[up] Thanks for catching that. If anyone wants to take a crack at sharpening up the Usagi pic, be my guest.

Usagi looks like he's losing the fight in that pic. They've grabbed onto him and we don't see him killing them or anything. He looks like he's getting overrun. Not very badass.

^Note that he's completely uninjured. He's getting overrun and still winning.

[up] How do we know he's winning? Do we see a pile of his defeated foes' corpses? Do we see him killing dudes? No, we see him getting attacked and letting the enemies get close enough to grab him.

I feel like it would be more obvious if he were losing, though.

Besides, even if he is losing, he's putting up one hell of a fight, and it's still Bad Ass.

Today's MTG Arcana has a nice pic of Ajani Goldmane roaring at a dragon, while the background explodes.

It could be cropped so we've just got the side with Ajani if necessary.

I'm not sure about the cropped version; I think it needs the dragon for it to look Badass.

And there's something stiff about the pose that makes me prefer both Usagi and the more dynamic Star Fox images already up for the vote.

I'm gonna compile the images on the votes once a crowner has been decided to make Image Links easier. Simply adding Badass Furry would do right?

[up] Change the Main in the URL to Image Links and edit the page, then post the page link on the Image Links main page so it indexes properly.

I do think the Usagi image is the best example.

The Star Fox images all just look like him posing with a gun to me.

[up] Well I think it looks cool....BUT I think Usagi's pic looks better.

I would argue that a sufficiently badass pose is sufficient to demonstrate a trope about badassery.

Well, it looks cool, but it doesn't look like he's doing anything. Doing something, to me, is a core requirement of being a badass.

To me Gun and epic pose = GAR....but that's just me.

Like I said, I STILL think Usagi is the best. Fox is just 2nd best imo.

Fair enough. As long as we're agreed on the #1, I'm happy with the rest being put on image links.

[up] Me too. The Usagi one just works. I mean Rabbit + Katana + fighting mooks + looking GAR while doing it = WIN!!!!
