Angry Why do all the Graal heads suck?

No, that's a serious question. In the past week, I've veiwed every single head on the server. Twice. Every single one of them seriously bites.

The majority of heads, are simply terrible. Horrible front and side views; an ugly mess of pixels.

On the other hand, many heads have excellent front views --- heads like 804, 368, et cetera. However, as soon as you turn to the side, the once great head turns to ****. The noses are ugly, the head is squashed, and you never want to use the head again.

Other, rarer heads are the exact opposite. Let's use head1167.gif as an example, shall we? It has excellent, great-looking side views, but the front is ugly as hell. Once again, you never want to use the heads again.

Then, there's that rare, beautiful head --- 744, for example. Excellent front and side views, one of the greatest you've seen. You rush into Graal to put it on.... Only to find out that it is horribly misproportioned. The head is bigger than your body, and you log off feeling very, very depressed.

Now, I ask, why does this happen? Is it a requirement that all heads have to have a terrible flaw in them that ruins it for the player? I'll bet there is. I'm going to kidnap one of them staff members and torture them for information. I'll do it, you know. Now where's Kawaii Saria?

Wait, I forgot one category:

Good heads that have nothing to do with Graal. These heads look fine, sometimes even great. Unfortunately, they nothing to do with Graal or RP'ing, so people rarely use them.

And why is that? Because I don't like an incorrectly proportioned recolor of several different heads melded into one?

And we've determined this how? Because I find a particular head ugly? That's a wonderful basis of determining intelligence.

I find it interesting that you're able to judge a person's character in a whopping two posts. That's impressive.

I like that. The transparency is incorrect though, and the nose is a little funky, but it's a good head.

My answer as to why all the Graal heads suck.
They have no definite theme, most are recolors or spin-offs of other heads, some are copywrited or stolen from other games/movies/whateverthehell, and the Graal heads that ARE good are not put online because we have bad Graphics Management.

Solution:
1)Delete every last head accept heads 0-25.
2)Make head images color customizable like body images so prevent people from sending in re-colors of heads.
3)Get new management.
4)Have a head of the month contest to see which head(NOT HEADS!!!) will go online per month. This will prevent us from having over 800 shitty heads on Graal.

That's a little harsh, because thereare some fairly good heads on the server. There *definetly* needs to be a massive overhaul, though. There's so many crappy heads in there, it's mindblowing.

The selvester(sp?) head is copywrited.
I saw a Trunks head, a Mr.Satan head, and Chibi Trunks head, all from DBZ.
Not to mension Sailor Moon, and why the flying f-riznitzles would somebody make a GUNDAM head????

That's what they've been saying for a while... I haven't noticed anything, though. I mean, look at head47.gif, and try telling me with a straight face that they're weeding out the low-quality heads.

It's not just the head images that suck...
Take for instance the FRO hat on NewMain, it's 1 color....no detail, just one big mass of one color...

Back on topic, that brings us to the other division of heads: The great heads that are, most unfortunately, female.
