Well, okay, let's forget the flowers.
Pre November 2003 all we had to see was a piece of concept art (airship, skyscrapers and people at the bottom). Nothing else was known about it. So... considering this image was 'released' two years before that (this site gives the date it was first seen:
http://www.angelfire.com/fl4/UltimaFF/oldnews.html - bottom article) we're supposed to have been shown a character render, when we knew nothing about the characters, the setting of the game, or anything else apart from that one concept art? Also have you seen screenshots of ingame/FMVs from FFXII? The style of the world and its characters does not really match that of the girl in the image.
In addition no gaming sites I check have this image hosted (IGN, RPGamer, Gamespot).
