•  Info Another picture of a impressive Black Forrest Ant. I believe its a Queen. Created, uploaded and nominated by --Makro Freak 19:36, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Image #1 - not featured

•  Support --Makro Freak 19:36, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose - Harsh lighting (flash?), boring composition - Alvesgaspar 21:47, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
•  Support --Winiar^✉ 20:39, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose Beautiful image, but too many parts of it are out of focus, especially extremities of legs and antennas. Moreover, the picture does not comply to the 2 Mpixels limit. — Xavier, 00:25, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

•  Comment There is not a 2MP limit, only a guideline --Tony Wills 23:35, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Image #2, featured

•  Comment The four votes above should probably apply to this image as well, since the only difference is the resolution. -- Ram-Man 13:55, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
•  Support the higher resolution image. Oppose as per project scope ("The quality of files should be as high as possible"). We're this image not downsampled, the resolution would be ok, since the content would be a mitigating factor: more horizontal width wouldn't make any difference to the ant. I'll change to support if this image is uploaded at a higher resolution. -- Ram-Man 04:53, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
  • I've changed to support the higher resolution image. As for the brighter hot spots, is that because the downsampling eliminated them or was there some other processing? -- Ram-Man 14:08, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
    • Honestly i dont know. Maybe its because of the downsampling. --Makro Freak 17:39, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

•  Support, but if the only difference is the resolution, why upload under a new name?? Jon Harald Søby 20:52, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Defiance ;) --Makro Freak 12:01, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Or to erase oppose votes. Technically speaking the one oppose vote for image #1 should apply here, but clearly the other oppose vote does not apply here, so separating the image does make sense and sorting out the votes is always a problem since the rules state that this is a straight vote. If consensus was determined we might not have that problem. -- Ram-Man 12:11, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
