    Very cool wallpapers.

    Not to be a spoilsport I liked the 5ER art better for some of them. But, I am sure over time I will like the new "looks" better.

    Any particular reason the only female is the only character turned away from the viewer?

    Heh.
    Really though, they should all face camera - it just looks odd.

    It looks gratuitous.

    Normally I'm all for that sort of thing, but here it looks out of place.

    Mind Slayer faces the camera on the right-hand side of her wallpaper.

    If you're bothered by her backside shot, I doubt you'd consider the front view an improvement.

    No, I saw the front, and it didn't bug me. What does bug me is the posing. In the grand scheme I'm probably being over-sensitive, and I admit that. It just seems odd that the first and so far only shot of a female character is a butt shot.

    Everyone who tried to take a picture of Mind Slayer from the front was added to her thrall.

    I would have thought that for a computer wallpaper - the characters should be posed to look impressive. They're showcases of the the art in the game and who the character is.

    It's a bit like taking a family photo and having some folk facing away from the camera - why?
