Why is it that Glint looks brown here? User Yoshida Keiji Signature.jpg Yoshida Keiji talk 13:25, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Lighting of the area. The other images have her extracted from the game, I think, so no lighting. In game she actually looks like this. Or always has for me. Konig/talk 13:33, 11 February 2012 (UTC)
Maybe the brown picture was taken by someone with post-process effect while drunk? User Yoshida Keiji Signature.jpg Yoshida Keiji talk 14:43, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
Or just low graphics setting. Anything is possible. Or perhaps your computer has a different graphics setting/capability from others - see File:The Dragon's Lair 2 cinematic still.jpg, which also has her more brownish. I'm now no longer sure what her real look in game is. Though I guess it's possible the other was just a copy/paste of the old image here. Konig/talk 15:12, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
Edit: Or not, considering the other images at The Dragon's Lair (cinematics) has a more grayish brown Glint, rather than a grayish blue Glint. Konig/talk 15:13, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
And what about the crystals behind? I see them with the same color of Crystal Guardians, which to me its a blue with purple bits. User Yoshida Keiji Signature.jpg Yoshida Keiji talk 15:21, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
It's been a while since I've been to The Dragon's Lair (I'll probably drop in later), but the place always had a brownish hue to me - especially the crystals. What I'm guessing is a similar situation to what allowed some folks to see Drakkar clearly - certain graphic requirements aren't met (either due to a really really old graphics card or a low setting on one of the scenarios - perhaps even post-processing effects?) which removes some of the environmental effects which alter the lighting of the area. The Crystal Guardians are definitely blue with purple hues, but I don't recall Glint or her room ever being as blue as them. Though considering how blue the extracted version of her is, if you remove the lightings and whatnot caused within the room, Glint and her surroundings may look less brown - which, as said, I think is the case for you.
