Awhile ? probably half the people who've posted here are in a nursing home while Steven is more than likely 6ft under. It's been longer than "awhile".
*Arises from the grave*
Wh-what? I'm... alive?! Why is the sky black? And is that Porunga I see in the distance? Aircraftman, you dog, you did it! You have finally achieved... the necro-post of Kanzenshuu legend! (Damn the last time I was here Beerus didn't exist yet)
So, good news and bad news aircraftman3. I have the 'remastered' image you seek, after miraculously unearthing it within the recesses of the hard drive from my old 2005 Windows XP desktop tank (which has 250MB RAM, WTF?! My cheaper smart phone has 4GB, oh how tech has advanced). But the above thumbnail gives the illusion that the quality is higher than it really is. All I did was adjust the colours, increase sharpness, remove the crease lines and gloss (also Ranfan's bra :p). There are still remnants of the gloss that I assume my previous monitor didn't pick up, but can still be easily modified in Photoshop now by anyone. The source image was low-res IIRC, and therefore I could only 'remaster' the picture to an extent. If you want this image in it's full glory, you will have to track down an owner of the original, extra-large poster, and get them to scan it in. I would be willing to 'remaster' that one properly.

I've just got an idea . . .
How about, we identify the significant characters not included in the poster, and then I'll add them and 'extend' the collage, to make it the SUPER-ULTIMATE DRAGONBALL IMAGE OF ALL TIME?
Any luck with that?
Nope. :p Trust me... the missing characters would not fit in that poster.

What's all this racket? You gosh darned whippersnappers!
It's really cool to see a refreshed version of this poster again. Did we identify who was missing from it? I don't remember anymore.

I literally laughed out loud! I'm glad I have achieved that scary-sounding thing. I had to use Porunga since Shenron is so not 2020 with his skinny arms.
Btw I am so happy that the poster is here again! I was pretty sure I will never dig it out from here
2 mins later:
As a matter of fact it turns out that I myself had that remastered poster too on my HDD. But really, I was sure yours was of higher resolution.
I tried to use the online tools that we have today for a AI upscaling of a photo and the pre-master version did so much better job in increasing its resolution 4x or even more because I also cut the whole image in parts and upscaled parts to see the difference.
I will you know? I will track him down.. I don't know whom yet but I will lol Great and thanks for being willing to do it one more time!!
Hopefully when the time comes I will be able to have it printed out and decorate my hall with it.
And in the meantime..To the next time!!

I...I always knew you were still around.
Anyway, thanks a lot for the image. I can't believe how many characters you can have in one picture if you try hard enough. I've looked for it in the past but could never find anything as high quality as this.

Oh really? So you had that image on your HDD all along?

I'm confused as to why the resolution of my 'remastered' one is not as great as the source image found earlier in the thread (
http://vanesshenron.free.fr/Images/DB_everybody.jpg), which I recently discovered was still available and assume is the version I worked off. I don't understand why I'd downscale it, but that is the only one I could find on my hard drive. Maybe there was a bigger one, but it may very well be lost to time. I'll double check my hard drive.

Can we see the work you've done then? I'm curious to see what this 'AI' thing can do.

Just GT stuff for some reason. I remember getting this poster in 4th grade, I still have it but the bottom portion has been torn to shreds because kids cant play tag without dragging their hands across the wall.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

GT stuff? Isn't this poster quite obviously featuringjust the original Dragon Ball and the Dragon Ball Z tv shows? There shouldn't be any GT on there at all

So of course it would be missing :b
But the Cell Games Cameraman was missing, probably underneath that logo. Also I think pigtails Videl should've been on there and regular Super Saiyan teen Gohan as all the other forms for people seem to be there :b
Probably everyone noticed this, but I also like that you can find two sets of Dragon Balls on the poster :b

Probably, but how long ago was that? I don't remember at this point. :I
But I guess it's the Kame House aligator, the Cell Game cameraman, Dr. Raichi, at least a God Guardon and a handful of grudge demons.

Hey old buddy, you wouldn’t have my old bot avatar you made me lying around somewhere would ya? ^^;
New to the forum? Just want to know when you'll hit your next posting rank? Ever wondered why some users have special titles, and what they mean? The answers to all these questions and more are waiting for you in the Kanzenshuu Member Hierarchy Guide!!

Holy moly!!!!!!!!

You- you found it! Good job! Look at the colours, clarity, and definition of the artwork!

Wow, I have never seen it in that form before. Forget the AI 'upscaling' boys, this is the one we want. If I could get my hands on that, then this poster could exist on the internet in it's truest form for the first time- all I'd have to do is remove the fold lines, and edit any blemishes.
*Salivates* But now we need $250... @____@ There is a logo on the bottom left, but I could remove it and edit in the image that should be behind it, using another 'full' image (like the one you have linked). Now I need 250 people to donate $1. :p

I gave it my first shot and asked the guy that auctions it kindly to scan, but he refused :p
Yeah, I guess 250 guys would pay $1, or 125 guys to give $2.. or 62 and a half-guy would pay $4 ;D
How would you get around to scan it just out of curiosity?

No it isn't. As you can clearly see here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YQ0nK8 ... sp=sharing
The entire corner is missing. They just cut the bit with the logo.
In fact, they cut a huge chunk of the bottom vertically and also the left horizontally. I didn't check the top and right, but wouldn't be surprised if that's cut too. Am I the only one seeing this?

God damn it! You are right, they cut out the bottom as well as the side! Nicely spotted! They did in fact cut the top a little bit too.
