Hey, thanks for fixing a ton of those ME2 achievement images; I should have known by the dark background that the ones I uploaded weren't legit! I saw you sourced xbox.com for the images, and I was wondering if you know of a way to find the images directly on the site? For the PS3 I can get my own trophy images off my profile on PSN, and I think I can do the same for buddies I add online. Is that how it works for XBLA? Or is it possible to find the images some other way, without having a profile? I make a lot of achievement pages, and sometimes I just can't find a large enough image. Any help would be appreciated. :) — [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 00:06, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

:No prob.  At least there was something there until we could get colorized versions. :D  I wish there was an easy way to find the colored images from xbox.com but I've yet to find one.  I've been using the leaderboards on mygamercard.net to see who has the most achievements in a game, I go to their profile, and then I do a whole lot of right-click + Save as.  For example, for ME2 [http://www.mygamercard.net/leaderboard.php?gt=&g=1059&z=&c=&x=83&y=17 this] can lead me to a profile and finally to achievement images. So you don't really need to be buddies with that person to see their achievements (unless they have privacy settings enabled to thwart you).— [[User:TheTwan|TheTwan]]<sub>[[User talk:TheTwan|talk]]</sub> 04:04, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

::Okay, thanks for the info. I guess nothing's ever as easy as it should be. :/ I might try that technique out on some of the harder to find images.
