  • Oppose for same reason I opposed JPEG example flower.jpg. I cant stand the white backgrounds. And even still I think it's pretty boring. Maybe a picture of the leaf in a natural setting perhaps in autumn would be more appealing. --ScottyBoy900Q 00:07, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Support. Professionally executed extraction. Clear. — David Remahl 00:14, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Support. I like the white background since it makes the subject "pop" off the screen. [[User:Davodd|DAVODD «TALK»]] 01:10, Oct 23, 2004 (UTC)

  • Oppose. Image is too small for a featured picture. The 37 KB JPEG makes JPEG artifacts show up and you can't see that details. Plus I agree somewhat with ScottyBoy that it would be better in a natural setting.Janderk 12:22, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Support. Agree with Solipsist's comments. fabiform | talk 16:55, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose - as a botanical pic its good (though should be higher res); but as a featured its not good enough -- William M. Connolley 19:08, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC).
  • Oppose, agree with WMC. [[User:Neutrality|Neutrality (hopefully!)]] 17:47, Oct 24, 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Ditto. Chameleon 21:54, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Too small, and not even interesting. -- [[User:Solitude|Solitude\talk]] 09:28, Oct 28, 2004 (UTC)
