I joined the group already actually, my username on dA is the same one I use here. I don't do much on dA anymore, though.
Oh yeah! I remember you. I didn't realize that until now. Thanks for joining the group. Yeah, dA is pretty much my primary social group since I don't use Facebook. I do have Twitter, but I rarely use that, primarily for me to post on Nintendo, Ubisoft, and Sakurai's accounts regarding Rayman as a playable character in Smash Bros. Still, I'm looking forward to working with you here as often as possible.

I have a quick question.
How do you have these custom banners,icons, etc. displayed on the bottom of the posts you make? For example, I want to have that Rayman head icon displayed every time I want to post something. Do you unlock it or what?

That's a signature. Just hover over your name at the very top of the page and click "Signature" on the drop down bar. Just write or put whatever images you want in it and save. It only appears on your first post on a particular thread page, however.

Not used to forums, eh?

Nice profile picture, but you meant signature right? You got mixed up, you putted a avatar picture, what James said was right, but go to this and then post your img, you cant take it out of your files though, you need to have the link to it, http://smashboards.com/account/signature when you get there, go to the typing section, then go on the bar, there should be a picture with a sun and hills on it next by the smily face and 2 boxes(media) press the picture with a sun and hills on it, it should say "IMAGE URL" copy the rayman head, not save it. then go to the alignment and put it to center, the alignment is the 4 bars that look like a bar graph.

Actually, I did that and posted my signature. The avatar was done by me, while the signature, if you look at the top of the page, was done by my friend.

Still, thanks.

Thanks!

BTW, I don't know if anyone noticed this, but
during the fight with Master Hand when he turns into that black swarming mass, doesn't that seem almost similar to the final boss from Rayman Legends?

Similarly, but he seems more thick in Rayman Legends, would've been awesome if the final boss from Rayman Legends was one of Master Core's forms then it would be a big reference.

That it would. Not only that, but both change shape during the different phases. Then again, the Cloud of Darkness fight looks much more easier than Master Core.

Speaking of hands, when I get my 'hands' on Smash Bros Wii U, and after I unlock the trophies, I'm tempted to make a joke involving both Master and Crazy Hand and their relation with Rayman.

For spoilers, you should use spoiler tags.
Code:
[spoiler=]Put these around anything you want to hide [/spoiler]

I never made the connection with Master Core. Doesn't seem like it.

Okay then. I'll try that.

Well, it feels pretty obscure for those who haven't played Rayman Legends. I do imagine the connection between RL's final boss and Master Hand, pretty much.

EDIT:
To get what I'm saying, I'll list the similarities between the two:
-The first phase of both fights involve giant floating hands, where in Smash Bros' case, it's actually two you hands you fight against.
-Both Master Core and RL's final boss are made up of black creature like swarms. If you look in the intro for the RL boss, it's actually made up of the dark creatures in Olympus Maximus that have been chasing you around.
-Both bosses change forms between phases. RL's boss has three, while Master Core has seven phases (in the Wii U version), if counting the battle with Master & Crazy Hands, Master Fortress, and Master Core itself.
-Both fights involve some platforming, mainly during the RL's final boss, while the platforming section only occurs during the Master Fortress stage.

I'm not saying this was intentional regarding those connections, but it was quite coincidental.

:awesome:

Eh... Not too happy with this. Bit too tall. Thoughts?
Its not bad[2], really love the idea of the circle on Raymans hoodie as a smashball.
I had the same feeling, where you couldn't think of any banner-like signature to make and you didn't know what to do. if that is, what your feeling(:4shulk:)

I like it, but as you said, it is a bit too tall. I would suggest shrinking verticallya bit. I recall you did something like this for Pac-Man before he was revealed, maybe something along the lines of that in terms of size.

I think if there is a line for third party characters, we've kind of hit it. I think after 4 third party characters and three of the most iconic names in video games, I don't think we can really go any further with it without it becoming silly. Rayman is cool and all, but he is not on the same caliber of the other third party characters. There is also the fact that I think his inclusion would be more polarized. In general, I don't think third party characters should be DLC.

But Sakurai said that this is likely to be the last Smash Bros he'll be working on. And if no one else will take the helm, we'll probably never see Rayman playable in another Smash Bros, let alone any other third parties. Besides, who wants to wait another agonizing 6-8 years for another Smash Bros hoping for Rayman to be playable? It's now or never for us!

Besides, what's the point of giving Rayman three trophies, let alone a trophy of himself, if he's not going to be playable? I'm sorry, but I refuse to believe that they won't add him as DLC just because there would be too many third parties already. The roster has been overrepresented with Mario, Fire Emblem, Pokemon, and there's more than 4 characters each. Yet, people complain about the possibility of four third parties being too much. I would gladly accept Rayman as the final 3rd party addition to the roster and nothing more. People has been clamoring for Mewtwo to return, while others disagree. Now he's coming as DLC. I don't see why they couldn't do the same for Rayman.

What I'm saying is we don't need Rayman. He's not a Nintendo character, and his inclusion wont sit as well as it did for the other characters.

Well neither is Sonic nor Pac Man, yet they still got in. No offense, but I take it that you don't like Rayman very much.

Rayman is by far on the level of Mega Man, if not higher.

Though not Nintendo, PS All Stars had third party DLC, so such a thing is not impossible. Rayman appearing with not one, but three trophies must count for something, and just the presence of the trophies means that they have the licensing done on him.

You tell him! If we don't need Rayman, then why do we have 3 trophies from his series and not him playable?

*giggle* Didn't you say the same thing about Mega Man before he was confirmed? Yes, you did... and you said the same thing about Pac-Man before he was confirmed. You even said the same thing about the actual Nintendo characters like the Miis and the Duck Hunt Dog before they were confirmed. :troll:

Maybe the O should be more to the right, because what I'm reading is more "Raymano" xD
But otherwise it's great!
