I think this might have been done before, but I couldn't find it in the search and there's some more new guys around that might enjoy it.

What's your favorite piece of art related to TRoS?  Why is it your favorite?

Mine's the pic of the girl with the arrow in her chest... showing the guy in the background smashing the hell out of the archer.  It's got a whole lot of character to it...   the way the archer's arms and legs are just flailing around, really makes me want to grab someone by the face and slam their head into the ground.  Great work.

theres alot of great work.  one of my favorites is the pirate guy in the skills section with the picture of another guys head kinda shadowy near him.  (btw jake what is that supposed to be anyway?).  id have to say my favorite one, though, is either the winged guy with the scimitar in Observations on Sorcerers in TROS or the pictures of the people becomming more and more overburdened in the laws of nature section on carrying capacity.

I like page 70, the page header pic for book four.  It's got so much motion that I really wonder what's going on - a really exciting picture that captures the chaos and fast pace of combat superbly.

Salamander:  no prozac for me... if my brain's outta whack, i treat it with cocaine or acid...  whichever is more prevalent at the time ;)

Kenjib:  Is that the one with the guy's head flying off?  sorry, I don't have my book with me at the moment.

Now, that wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that you can kind of see down her top, would it? :-)
