From what I can see, the Council in that picture consists of Kit Fisto (now going left), Tiin, New guy who looks to have a crest on his head in a different shot, the Zabrak Jedi with the little horns, Obi Wan, Ki Adi, Yoda, Mace, and Plo Koon. I take no responsibility for inaccurate spelling
Oppo Rancisis seen in the second volume of the Micro Series is not here, presumably killed. Shaak Ti is gone. Depa Bilaba was replaced by another woman of her species for Episode 2, but doesn't appear to be here either.
I think a list of the council from all three episodes and the micro series would be in order...

Well, the "come on now" part is due to having watched a boatload of Father Ted episodes recently, and the rest of it is I am sure annoyed at how all these characters who have no names in the film get names in order to sell toys, and also the names are silly.
It is not directed at you personally. I am just one hundred percent bitter and cynical.

They're all listed in those Visual Guides to Star Wars: The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones.
Just looking closely again at that cap... the lizardy guy with the crest is the same guy as the one who got shot over the wall on Geonosis, plummetting to his presumed death.
I think they TOTALLY missed that one.
Oppo is gone!?! NOOOOOOOOOOO! I want to see him move - he's got no legs.

Not for long: Episode III will certainly undermine a LOT of stuff: particularly if Lucas offers any further insight to the Sith.

I too liked that - something different. Was it Force-enhanced or just a species thing? It was bringing up concrete etc.
And with General Grievous - is that part 'living' thing inside the helmet part?

Well reguards to the names etc. as I said they came from that visual encyclopaedia - so It'd be the same as any facts that are found in books like the TNG Tech manual - it's sorta fact until it's disproven on film.

The "hammerhead's" voice thing is probably a bit of both natural species ability and force manipulation. Mabye the species uses sound as a sensory perception or as a sonic weapon of some kind, and he just aguments it with the force.
Grevious is suposed to be originally organic, but all that's left is the brain and eyes, I think. I've seen his personal starfighter- it's ...odd. Kind of a art deco spaceship version of the car from Monopoly.

OMG WTF ROTFLMAO!!!
