SHORT DESCRIPTION
  •  Support -- Hubertl 21:10, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment I'm having problems to open it. --Poco2 23:03, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support No problem at all on my iMac 5k 27". It opens like butter. Gorgeous, stunning, staggering and amazing! An 800 years old Gothic stained glass window, I am prone to say the very best one worldwide. --Johann Jaritz (talk) 03:33, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment - The reduced-size photo looks great. I, too, am completely unable to open this photo, so I don't feel it's reasonable for me to vote on it. Could a large file non-flash zoom viewer (I think it's called?) be added to the file? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:07, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Comment As Martin Falbisoner said: Download it and open it with a good viewer (I recommend Irfan View if you don´t have Photoshop or Gimp, its free and works fast) --Hubertl 07:44, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support magnificient! If you're having difficulties opening the file in your browser, just save it locally. --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 06:52, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
     Comment - Isn't it a problem if a lot of people will have trouble viewing the image at larger than thumbnail size? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:29, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Comment: Be aware, Ikan Kekek, this here is the Featured picture "contest", we are supposed to upload the best possible quality. Downsizing the picture just because people don´t have the necessary technical environment sounds weird for me. In fact, everyone who works with good quality should have an external, at least Full HD, ideally calibrated monitor. How else will you assess pictures with high quality? Assessing by histogram? My notebook doesn´t have any problems with this size. Gimp needs 3.5GB Ram, Irfan View 1,2 GB. This should´nt be a problem if you download it and start viewing with your notebook. --Hubertl 07:44, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • My point is that most viewers won't do that. Other huge files have provided a "non-flash zoom viewer". Why can't this one be provided with it? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:50, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        •  Comment If you want a non-flash-zoom viewer, why don´t you install Irfan view? It´s stable, simple to use and free of charge. And you can open almost any picture types! None of the viewers I use has flash technology! I don´t see your point! Please give us the specs of your notebook. (Ram/Prozessor/resolution) But again, IMO, a notebook for reviewing pictures is just a crutch. --Hubertl 16:59, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
          • I have IrfanView. I don't understand why it's a problem to enable viewers to use a huge file zoom viewer on Commons, as has been done for example with huge files created by the Getty Museum and uploaded here. -- Ikan Kekek(talk) 17:43, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, it´s a general problem, not a personal, because I uploaded a large picture. But what do you think about this non-flash-Viewer?, Ikan Kekek --Hubertl 18:17, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Terrific, and I'll  Support this magnificent picture, but as a practical matter, I think that expecting all viewers to either view the thumbnail or download the photo onto their computer is not too reasonable, so I think it's a good practice to put a link to a viewer like that onto the filename's page. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:18, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment - I disagree. I think that being user-friendly is relevant (or should be, at any rate - if this is a matter of policy that needs to be discussed, we should discuss it on the talk page). -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:19, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
