MemberCompsognathusNov-03-2013 8:50 AMDon't argue with me, these are my insane estimates that I like personally. Also it seems like everyone else to jumping off the same cliff into dinosaur size lake, so I may as well. I'm a lemming! Jeronamo! Splash and splat. I'm alive, hooray! Wait, is my leg supposed to be on backwards? Well, now with all fun and games done (as well as making sure my legs are positioned right) lets get to the list.

The three below are very debatable, but that is what I believe is right

Well, that's it. I was surprised at how the dinosaurs listed, but when I really looked for it, that was what came out. I guess I'm just not one for this kind of thing.

MemberCompsognathusNov-03-2013 9:06 AMDecent list. I'd switch a few around, but that's based on my estimates, not yours. Nice pics.

MemberCompsognathusNov-03-2013 9:09 AMThanks, it was surprisingly easy to get them. Except T. rex there are almost not rex pics that are good. Really the on,y thing that makes Giganotosaurus heavier than T. rex is its 6 foot length difference. And 2 foot height as well. If it didn't have that, then T. rex would probably be the biggest.

MemberCompsognathusNov-03-2013 9:22 AMNice list, can you tell me whats the unamed giant Abalisaur?

Deltadromeus
MemberCompsognathusNov-03-2013 9:26 AMIts an unnamed giant Abelisaur recently found from Kenya and its about 40 feet long. No horns, so probably an Abelisaurian and not a Carnotaurian.

Page 212 I believe. Wikipedia mentions it on the Ekrixinatosaurus page as well.

MemberCompsognathusNov-03-2013 9:59 AMPersonally, I find the skulls of Giga, Rex, and Spino speak volumes about the size of the animals overall.
Spinosaurus
[img]http://img.timeinc.net/time/today_in_pictures/0907/tip_ny_0713_01.jpg[/img]
Spinosaurus had a skull that was long and somewhat thin, much like the rest of the animal in my book.
Giganotosaurus
[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f2/Giganotosaurus_carolinii_DSC_2949.jpg[/img]
Giganotosaurus had a skull that was slightly shorter than Spino\\\'s, but more robust, as was the rest of the dinosaur.
Tyrannosaurus
[img]http://www.dailywhat.org.uk/media/108435/t%20rex%20skull.jpg[/img]
T-rex had a skull that might have been shorter than both Giga\\\'s and Spino\\\'s, but much heavier and more robust. T-rex was like this overall.
Hope this makes sense.

MemberCompsognathusNov-03-2013 11:17 AMwell, I'm disagree with some things, but it's your list and I respect your opinion. Hey, the Acro's pic is AWESOME :O

Lord Vader
MemberTyrannosaurus RexNov-03-2013 11:28 AMThat Acro pic is pretty cool. They're all pretty cool actually.

MemberCompsognathusNov-03-2013 12:05 PMMy personal favorite pic there has got to be either the Spinosaurus or the Unnamed giant Abelisaur.
Hi

DinoSteve93
MemberCompsognathusNov-03-2013 12:35 PMNice list, I'd have some changes, but as RexFan said, those are your estimations.
PS- maybe I'm going to do a top ten too...
Nah, it would be practically the same with RexFan's.
