Image:Dresden-Fuerstenzug2.jpg, not featured[edit]

Fürstenzug in Dresden
 Info Hugin was my first try, but the result was shit and very nonlinear. So I use the tile character of the image for stiching. In the colors stiching I can't see a problem, because I use manual settings of the camera. --Kolossos 20:53, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Edit1, featured[edit]

I rebuild the image with more care, because the comments above. --Kolossos 20:53, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fürstenzug in Dresden - more careful
  •  Oppose There are still stitching errors on the top of the picture (3 really visible and 1 acceptable). The horizontal lines on the top of picture are wavy, while the same lines on the bottom are not, I suppose it's a problem of stitching. Colors are more pale than previous version. The picture could be very impressionnant. Sanchezn 21:22, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Colors not worse?--Beyond silence 12:29, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
this image is no candidate
  •  Support If you think off how small the street is and how high the Fürstenzug is lying (see picture on the right) then you know which hard work this was. — Manecke 09:54, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • The problem is the picture has been stitched with The Gimp. The Gimp is not good for stitching and we see the result. Stitched with Hugin the result could only be better, not only for the stitching errors but also for vignetage correction. If kolossos give us the original pictures, we can show.

  • No, it's false. While there is only one plan, stitching errors cannot exists (if you use an appropriated software). The work become harder when there are more plans, sometimes you succeed aligning correctly the background, but the foreground contains stitching errors. Sanchezn 19:37, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • The fact that one user who supported the first nomination did not !vote in the second, and this vote would have made up a two thirds majority. I will assume that the same image with less errors would be supported by this user as well. --Pumpmeup 07:48, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment However if another user can create a better image and upload it, please do --Pumpmeup 07:56, 10 October 2007 (UTC);[reply]

Well that in defies the whole reason of voting doesn't it? "Oh yes please feature this mediocre version, but if you have a good one, then please upload...".You must be kidding !!! Lycaon 15:57, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, why do you have the authority to disregard the guidelines (which are there for a reason)? You should request a change to them if you don't feel that they are sufficient. In this case, the image really should NOT be featured because of the rules! Doodle-doo Ħ 23:34, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Question I don't understand this discussion. Why does a vote of 8/3/0 not meet the rules for featuring? (By the way, though, Pumpmeup, here on Commons we decide by way of a strict vote, not a vague 'consensus' as on Wikipedia. The act of closing is purely administrative, and the closer has no discretion to disregard the rules.) --MichaelMaggs 08:48, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
