what's with the "autism" association?[edit]

this image is used all over wikipedia to illustrate "autism". What the image contains is a boy looking at a molecule model. How is that an illustration of autism? It's more like an illustration of chemistry education. The boy may or may not have autism, but the same can be said for this fellow, or for basically each portrait picture on the project.

Also, I have no idea what Riboflavin penicillinamide is, neither Wikipedia nor google books being aware of its existence, and consequently I have no idea whether the model on the table happens to represent it. It's not en:Riboflavin at least, although it might just be something based on it. --Dbachmann (talk) 13:59, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Photoshopped[edit]

I am the only one who see that 2/3 of the molecules (on the lower left mainly) are exactly the same, with the same "fake-looking" level of detail, and the same size (too big at the away part of the picture), while others are grey and blurry?
Also, riboflavin and penicillinamide are, at best, two different molecules with no common points. But, from a short google search, penicillinamide only refers to this very picture. Penicillin amide, in two words, may exist, but still unrelated to vitamin B (unless I missed the point).
