Wouldn't it be nice if someone could convert all of these icons into scalable vector graphics? (I know the Electroplankton icon a PNG, but it's still pretty small.) Within the game, these series symbols appear as if they could be magnified and enlarged tenfold with no loss of quality. For example, when a match ends, the winning character's symbol appears big on the screen before shrinking slightly and going behind things. Wikipedia would tag these images with a "[[Wikipedia:Template:BadGIF|BadGIF]]" template. If I had Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator, you can bet I'd do this. What does anyone else think?

:Well, in the game they're probably just really high resolution (like 1024x1024 or something). But yeah, making the icons into .svg's might be a good idea. I'll get on that - I'll probably use a transparent background with a medium gray symbol, so it could be placed into white and black environments easily.
