Reason	I think the cropped version is a little bit better but unfortunately it is just under 2 MP. -- Dein Freund der Baum (talk)
Review (criteria)	Comment I agree with you that the cropped version is better. That is one of the reasons why we do not have a 2 Mpx requirement at VIC, as a focal point of VI is to consider images valuable for online display in Wikimedia projects, and here a good crop is better than more pixels. So you have two options: You can withdraw this one (as I am sure others will agree with both of us on this aspect) and nominate the cropped one instead, or you can nominate the alternative also and move it to an MVR, such that the reviewers decide which is best. --Slaunger (talk) 08:38, 28 January 2010 (UTC) Thank you for your help. I think I'm going to chose alternative one; could you tell me how to withdraw my nomination correctly? I wasn't able to finde an advice on these pages. Thanks! Regards, --Dein Freund der Baum (talk) 11:05, 28 January 2010 (UTC) Ah, yes, guidelines for withdrawing are unfortunately well hidden. Basically, you just change the status to withdrawn and then it will formally be closed as declined by a VI closer, who will confirm that withdrawal has been done by the nominator, creator or uploader. --Slaunger (talk) 11:16, 28 January 2010 (UTC) Thanks! --Dein Freund der Baum (talk) 22:02, 28 January 2010 (UTC) Withdrawn by nominator. --Myrabella (talk) 06:51, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
