File talk:Gul'dan by Metzen.jpg

SotS or PDF image

http://ftp.blizzard.com/pub/misc/Warcraft%202%20Battlenet%20edition.PDF - the larger version is directly taken from the Warcraft II manual pdf. It is factually a slightly larger image of Gul'dan, the other one from Sons of the Storm has larger resolution just because of more white around it. Mrforesttroll (talk) 05:08, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

Comparing the PDF version to the SotS version, I don't see any difference but for the PDF version the top part of the hood gets cutoff and the signature is missing. I'm not seeing any new hairs between the two and the shoulder looks the same when comparing all three copies. It should really just reflect what it closely is, which is the PDF copy. It's just a couple extra hairs anyways so not going to fight this. — SurafbrovWarcraft Wiki administrator T / C 05:19, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

The embedded image in the pdf has the signature covered but when the image is copied (extracted) out it has it and is the exact same as on www.blizzardarchive.com the Source the version was uploaded to wowpedia from. It is a slightly larger resolution of the art itself is my main point. Mrforesttroll (talk) 17:58, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

I see where I was wrong. I extracted it and got the same image. Then that leaves the question as to why the blizzardarchive.com was used as the source when it was extracted from the manual itself? — SurafbrovWarcraft Wiki administrator T / C 20:12, 28 April 2022 (UTC)
