TOPIC | I still want the old eyes back
1 2 3 4 5 6
I support an option to change back to the old eyes; I'm actually one of the people that can't visualize the difference though without seeing a side-by-side comparison and I was wondering if there was a place where I could find something like that? I'll definitely say I can notice a difference with some of my dragons, but it's not a big dramatic difference to me.

I think they would be wise to take their older users and their dragons into consideration, and foolish to ignore this huge outcry for some way to reverse a change that nobody asked for. Especially in cases where people have paid real money to achieve the perfect look for their dragons, like some of you have outlined, it's basically straight-up unfair

But her lightning eyes look green all of a sudden

@Woodkid - [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/sug/2459067]This thread[/url] has some comparisons! User idlewildly made an [url=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bIUaT4ii4WW5rgBiGuIFqrZ0gQI3AflxK_yP8WRgCGk/htmlview]old URL generator[/url] to see what the old eyes look like on a scried dragon, as well. For my own comparison, here's one of my Pearlcatchers with the old Lightning eyes: [center][img]https://78.media.tumblr.com/52940c63a742cfe1ce1c55e17a4c1d54/tumblr_o6fbeuoBCv1ujjv4ho2_400.png[/img] vs. the new Common Lightning eyes: [img]https://i.imgur.com/mpG2luF.png[/img][/center] The new ones are a lot brighter and have less depth than the old ones, and it makes her pupils harder to see. :'o (Sorry if this pings multiple times; had to edit my post!)

The new ones are a lot brighter and have less depth than the old ones, and it makes her pupils harder to see. :'o

Thanks! Those visuals really help!
Now that I know exactly what kind of changes happened, I can definitely see the difference in some of my dragons. And while it doesn't make a huge difference to me, it could mean a whole lot to others!
There should be a way to bring back the legacy eyes as simply a new eye type. It wouldn't effect breeding at all as it would be essentially as cosmetic as apparel is. It's fair and useful for people who have had perfected and completed dragons before the change, who are now... not perfect

Same, I don't want to make another permababy to fix the eyes, I happened to get unlucky and pick Light which had probably the most noticeable change out of all of them...

Permababies really suffer from the Common eye standardization. :( Baby Spirals are ironically the least noticeable to me, but other breeds look jarringly different... My first permababy, and first-ever Nocturne, has such searing neon eyes now when they used to be a pretty shade of soft green.

I really miss the eyes too, my progen fea, that's been my profile pic for years, just doesn't look the same. I recognize that it's not that big of a deal, but still it makes me sad every time i look at her

so yeah strong support for a legacy scroll of some kind, but im not really holding my breath lol In many cases i like the new eyes and dont mind them staying as the common eyes. I just want the old eyes for my progen

Thanks to the image generator, I managed to get a 350px version of what my G1 PC used to look like! All I had was the 2x resized one before.

If I could only fix one dragon in my lair, it would be her. ;__; I bought her and spent real money to gene her because the bright Plague eyes were perfect-- she's a fandragon for one of my favorite characters.

In support if this. Not particularly in support of having to pay for it, as we already had it for 5 years and developed eyes around it. But old eyes back would br good.

Mostly hiatus-ing. PMs are the easiest way to contact me at the moment, but expect lots of time for it to get noticed.
I have not been on the site for a while so I have not noticed the change. Mostly in my ridgeback's and skydancers because of how small the are.

But now, my first skydancer (that got me into skydancers... not a big fan) has these dark eyes that make it look like her eyes are closed. Why couldn't they keep old classic, and make the new common another alternate color? I really like the new colors but I just don't get why they replaced the original. I have never really been one to care what flight/color my dragon''s eyes are. But when they look like black dots and not a blue....

I also can't stand the new primal eyes aside from shadow, and ice. The wind ones look like they are covered in cartoon farts.
