Awesome stuff! A few of those LT skill icons in that image I made were by rainlash, so he should be credited in the folder name as well.

I used the animation of the mermaid in my hack. And yes I had this problem too and thanks to some of the people I spoke with, I was able to find its problem and fix it.
I didnāt post a fixed version of it because I was a little afraid I might cause problems so I left it alone.
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaah that animation might have been a bit outdated and probably one that I was the least proud of. Thanks for fixing it!
Also, my Lyon didnāt have the sound effects included for the critical attack in the .txt file, so I added it back to the animation. and broke the animation again, having to redo a section but its fine. If I can finally get a friend of mine to record it, Iāll be uploading a video for demonstration ala SHYUSTERās stuff.

No, sheās most likely at least a little over 2000 years old, maybe even over 3000 years old. Tiki is a fellow Divine Dragon, and her adult selfās age is confirmed to be at least over 3000 years.

Ladies and gentleman, we have an improved shaman!
This is the second time Iāve seen this argument pop up in the last week or so. Itās also the second time Iāve ever seen people mention the naming convention of āimproved Xā in the Repo. Weāve had āimprovedā animations since like, idk, 2008. Feels like if this was going to become an issue people should have mentioned it sooner?
Not that I disagree. I mostly just name animations whatever the creator names them, with a few exceptions. A lot of people submit āImproved Xā animations, so I just stick them in. A few of them, Iāve looked at the animations and said āWait, this isnāt even improved. Itās not even a sidegrade. Isnāt this worse?ā but itās not easy to, idk, get a āconsensusā on how these animations should be named.
Some animations are intended to be improved versions of existing ones. For example, Sax-Marineās posting of the Warrior 2.0 just above.
This is a cool animation, but is it really a 2.0? It seems better than the Warrior design-wise, but also like completely different. The design screams ātier 3ā but the actual animation movements are basically the same as the warrior. Should I list it as Alternate Warrior, then? Updated Warrior? Tier 3 Sort Of Updated and Altered Warrior But Itās A Different Class That Simply Mirrors The Warriorās Movements?
Even if I figure out something for this Warrior 2.0 animation, I still have all the other animations to deal with after that. Too exhausting for what amounts to a single word change, so Iām not going to bother.
Yeahā¦ Iām not gonna accept this argument. If it bothered anyone, they would have said something like 10 years agoā¦ or four years ago when I made the repoā¦ or twoā¦ or even one year ago. Why wait all this time? Nobodyās offended by the name choice. A better reason to change it is just simply that it doesnāt make much sense, but at the same time itās also tedious and annoying work with essentially zero payoff so I donāt think itās worth the time.

So anyway.
I spent a bunch of time reworking the Portrait Repo again. A criticism the portrait repo kept receiving from many discord servers I frequent went a little something like this:
Yeah, sure, it has 2,200 portraits, but there are SO many bad ones!
Why do I have to sift through so many crappy meme portraits just to find the good ones?
A lot of the portraits don't fit in with the GBAFE artstyle at all. If you're not making a shitty low-tier hack, these portraits are just random noise!
Klok, you're ugly and your father smells of elderberries!
Obviously, all of these criticisms are true. So, I tried looking at the repo to see if I could finagle a solution. Hereās what I came up with.
First off, Iāve gone through all of the OC folders and sifted out any āmemeyā portraits, any that donāt conform to āconventional GBAFE design philosophy,ā and so on. I placed them all inside what I can only describe as a āmeme folder.ā This will help people bypass them, but also for people who WANT meme mugs, now theyāre all in one spot.
This meme folder is inside the Non-FE Properties folder in the root portrait repo. I would like to sift the actual FE-style mugs out and put them into a different folder, but that can wait for now.
I donāt like passing judgment on what constitutes a ālow quality portrait.ā Sterling Glovnerās work, for example, is often very differently proportioned from how GBAFE portraits look. Does that make his work worse? Of course not. His work is awesome. A few examples:
However, there are mugs that I think donāt belong in the ordinary folders. For exampleā¦
Literally just pictures of people or random images off the internet:
Mugs taken from totally different FE games, typically pre-FE6:
In the above case, these mugs look great! I actually plan to move these into the base game folders when I have time, itās just that they donāt belong in the OC folder, where they were.
Images like these which seem to have been made with a ālolz this is a funi memeā intent:
And so on.
Itās not that these images are bad, but the point of the repo is to serve as an easy to access repository of graphics for project makers. This change for meme mugs actually improves the repo by making it easier for meme-game creators to find funi mugs they want, while non-meme game creators also donāt have to sift through those.
Iām up for any suggestions and improvements to the sorting or whatever. I actually donāt even know if this is a good name for the folder, so, thoughts?
All Non-GBA-Style Mugs and Meme Mugs
Maybe something more likeā¦
All Unconventional and Meme Mugs

Alright, I think Iāll name this one āLeo Linkās Improved Warrior 2.0 Upgraded Edition featuring Dante from Devil May Cry v3 Super Hyper Kamehameha Editionā.
Jokes aside, I actually renamed the original version of this animation in the repo to Tellius Warrior, so Iāll make yours the āTellius Warrior Alt Attackā.
