•  Oppose The stitching can be seen near the red building. Also IMO the image is to big (18M) --SuperJew (talk) 17:53, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
  •  Comment How can an image be too big? Aren't we building the Commons for the future? In a few years 18 megabytes won't seem large at all. --Specious (talk) 03:59, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
•  Support Nice image, great resolution, valuable image, no issues visible even at full resolution; I could not see the stitching. Anonymous101 ^talk 18:12, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

There is a white line next to the red building. Also, don't you think the image might be a bit to big? on my average speed computer it took about 15 minutes to load. --SuperJew (talk) 18:52, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

The white line is not a stitching error, it is one of the ropes of the window cleaning platform. It is present in the original pictures. And when FPC is now becoming a place where contributors are encouraged to upload lower quality images, then something is going seriously wrong. --Dschwen (talk) 19:54, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

It's in the guidelines that "We can't predict what devices may be used in the future, so it is important that nominated pictures have as high a resolution as possible". --Lošmi (talk) 19:58, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
