::By the way, you forgot that there is another image I [[:File:HCE-AlphaHalo-SurfaceDetail.jpg|uploaded]] that is directly from the game itself. Of course I had to dial up the lighting a little bit because for some odd reason, every time I take a screenshot of a video game using Screen Grab on my computer, it always is far darker than it is supposed to be. (This never happens with screenshots from TV shows or movies.) But just because there is another means that this one nor the other should be deleted.

:::I went with the original ring over the ''Anniversary'' redesign for a number of reasons, the most important one being the fact that the imagery is simply more iconic and definitive. All other media featuring the Halos or Installation 04 itself use the original ring design largely unchanged, whereas the rather drastic redesign in ''Anniversary'' is the only instance to deviate from the norm. It's true that we ''generally'' tend to use the most recent appearance, but since this case pits an iconic and well-established design against a one-off anomaly originating from a game that is essentially an ''offshoot'' of the original (I like to think of ''Anniversary'' as an "alternative artistic interpretation" as opposed to an all-out retcon), I think it's best to go with the original version. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 16:57, 21 June 2013 (EDT)

::::Oh, well that makes sense, I guess. I mean, it was the first ''Halo'' game to come out after all. And yes, from that standpoint, it is rather an alternative artistic interpretation. Personally, I think 343 Industries used it more as an exercise, just to get a feel for what they're about to do. --'''''[[User:Xamikaze330|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Halo;">Xamikaze330</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Xamikaze330|<font color="Blue">Transmit</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|<font color="Green">Files</font>]]''''']</small> 17:08, 21 June 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330
