I spun the image backwards and it said "Paul is dead."   

hahahahaha!!

@Gabe, I edited out the bodies so that no zooming in is required.

I'm not quite convinced the objects on the poles are bodies, but I agree it's ambiguous enough that I would support using this modified version. 

Is there a way to just show the Warrior and provide a clay background. Either that or ask YMCA, Gabe or Rob for an alternative picture as I believe these cards aren't the finished product.

Daniel pretty much already did that.

Ok, I see it but its not obvious from the picture on the card so I don't we a huge did. Worse case scenario the guys a crusader lol its history we'll live. Its better than the picture without the background.

I just saw this thread this morning.  I am not resistant to changing the art.  In fact, the original card list proposed reprinting the illustration by Ben Go that we already own.  I thought the new piece was interesting.  Then again, I did not catch the bodies until they were identified for me here.  Otherwise, I would not have used the image at all or would have zoomed in on it much more.  Even so, if people have good faith concerns about it as has been demonstrated here, I will change this one.

Then again, I did not catch the bodies until they were identified for me here.

They are difficult to see in the smaller form on the card. The original artwork that Lambo showed makes it more obvious. I was more attuned to the surroundings because that's just the way I am, and I was wary of any modern pictures involving a Crusader. As a teacher in a Christian school, I tend to scrutinize things more than the average person, since my job demands it. 

Even so, if people have good faith concerns about it as has been demonstrated here, I will change this one.

Thank you for your continued support of the community and our opinions. 

However, I also already pointed out that if others do see it then I'm not going to advocate keeping the same image, ...

Thank you, as well as the other Moderators, for your willingness to accept our concerns and do something about it, even though you may not have had the same concerns. I like that we can all work together to discuss something like this and make changes (if necessary). 

Besides, it gave me a chance to make the Professor and kariusvega laugh, so it was well worth it. 

Rob has reverted Christian Soldier back to the original piece of art. The preview article on LoR now reflects how the card will look when printed.

I assume that was just an issue with copying the image and not with the card itself.

EDIT: Looks like that's just an image sizing issue, so shouldn't be a problem at all. Disregard!

Thanks for catching that. Totally my bad. When I uploaded the new image I used the smaller template I use for the "pop-up" card images instead of the larger template that's for featured cards. It's fixed now.
