It looks like someone used the multiplayer gold coloring, went to Custom Games, and took a snapshot of himself. [[User talk:Missing Mandible|Missing Mandible]] 16:33, 15 April 2011 (EDT)

:We're in the process of improving images. See Forum:Pictures Wanted!.— <span style="font-size:120%; font-family:Palatino Linotype; font-style:italic;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 16:49, 15 April 2011 (EDT)
::But you can't just use images from Multiplayer. This is not the correct coloring for the General Rank. It is better trying to get images from the Campaign or Firefight, rather than Multiplayer-espescially because you cannot imitate accurately the real deal when its coloring is not available in the multiplayer setting.

:::As I said before, we're in the process of improving images. As such, not everything would be 100% accurate. >.>
:::If you have any screenshot of these warriors, please upload them to the wiki.— <span style="font-size:120%; font-family:Palatino Linotype; font-style:italic;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 18:00, 16 April 2011 (EDT)
::::Accurate information is the point of having these wikis. Images are information.
::::It's all fine and good for there to be multiplayer images in the galleries. But it is never okay to slap them on as the titled pictures, or use them to represent the rank in other articles. If you are trying to get pictures of better quality, spend time in Campaign, or, easier yet, go to Firefight as an Elite, so that you can get the Elite Generals at a more relaxed stance.

While I don't really agree that it's a big deal, I do think it's a valid point that the coloring on the multiplayer version is slightly off - The Campaign version has two tones of gold, while the one in the snapshot has one solid tone. I get that the wiki is in the process of image renovation and all, but I don't think there's really any advantages to using a multiplayer model over the Campaign model for the article image. After all, there should be some decent neutrally-posed Generals in Campaign ''somewhere'' [[User talk:SPARTAN-347|SPARTAN-347]] 23:43, 16 April 2011 (EDT)
:Why not go into theater and get a pic of one before you arrive and start fighting? [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 00:25, 17 April 2011 (EDT)
:If I have Gold LIVE account, this wouldn't be an issue. Bungie.net File Search is not helpful. Like I said, please help the wiki by providing us screenshot of these warriors.— <span style="font-size:120%; font-family:Palatino Linotype; font-style:italic;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 10:23, 17 April 2011 (EDT)
:Wow, I totally forgot you could save screenshots from Bnet, I feel dumb :/ I'll try to get some in the next few days. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 02:53, 18 April 2011 (EDT)
== Not Ground Leaders ==
I disagree completely with General being defined as a ground leader. As I said on the Zealot talk page, [[Ardo 'Moretumee]] cancels this out completely. Field, Ship, and Fleet Masters have to be Titles, not Ranks. It is truly the only explanation to justify the use we've seen them in.--[[User talk:Xzan Tamasee|Xzan Tamasee]] 10:10, 29 October 2011 (EDT)
:I agree, there's no way those are ranks. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 19:04, 29 October 2011 (EDT)
::I also agree. The terms Shipmaster, Fleetmaster, and Fieldmaster are equivlent to saying that General Patton was "Officer Commanding, Third Army", or that Colin Powell was the "Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff". It's a title, not an actual military rank. --[[User talk:Sierra 109|Sierra 109]] 11:59, 14 November 2011 (EST)
==Trivia Piece==
Hey, wasn't there  a piece of trivia noting that the Elite General's helmet headdress that looked similar to a ''[[wikipedia:Lambeosaurus|Lambeosaurus]]''? Why was this bit of trivia removed? --'''''[[User:Xamikaze330|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Halo;">Xamikaze330</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Xamikaze330|<font color="Blue">Transmission</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|<font color="Green">Commencing</font>]]''''']</small> 15:13, 23 February 2014 (EST)Xamikaze330
:Looking at past versions of the article I couldn't find it once mentioned. I say just add that back in there.[[User:Sith Venator|<span style="color:green">Sith-venator Wavingstrider</span>]] [[File:Fett helmet.jpg|20px]] ([[User talk:Sith Venator|<span style="color:blue">Commlink</span>]]) 20:09, 23 February 2014 (EST)
::Unless the similarity is plainfully obvious that it was intentionally designed as such, I would say avoid putting in that trivia.— <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  20:21, 23 February 2014 (EST)
:::Maybe. I do remember seeing somewhere that it said in the trivia that it did resemble some kind of dinosaur, I think was the lambeosaurus. But now I'm not certain where I saw it. Either way, I am not sure whether it really is noteworthy. --'''''[[User:Xamikaze330|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Halo;">Xamikaze330</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Xamikaze330|<font color="Blue">Transmission</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|<font color="Green">Commencing</font>]]''''']</small> 21:42, 23 February 2014 (EST)Xamikaze330
