Ambigram Nothing written
  • Giving depth to the background (and volume to the texture) was intentional, but my goal was above all to preserve contrast with text color. Is the blue distinguishable or do we see nothing? :-D -- Basile Morin (talk) 14:30, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • if the paper is white, it is definitely underexposed. It looks grey on the photo. It's a common mistake to underexpose photo with a dominant white context (because some metering modes will average across all the frame).

  • Thanks for your remark, with which I totally agree. However, the paper was not white. I would say it was this color, but the intensity of the tint (to the eye) clearly depends on the light, of course -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:40, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Invalid vote (less than 50 edits) -- Basile Morin (talk) 14:16, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It is not stated that the edits should be only Commons. I have less than 50 on Commons, but more if you consider the whole Wikimedia project (Wikipedia, Wikispecies) See here: https://xtools.wmcloud.org/ec/meta.wikimedia.org/Ndiver. And notice that I've submitted recently a picture that was approved as FP. Ndiver (talk) 14:42, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, Ndiver, but Basile is right. It says clearly on COM:FPC that "contributors whose Commons accounts have at least 10 days and 50 edits ", and your Commons account has only 28 edits. You can make nominations, but not vote yet. I suggest you start making yourself useful here on Commons so you can join in the FPC voting. ;-)
Also, the computer editied part of this photo is not a problem. All sorts of excellent images are welcome at FPC, it is only a matter of sorting them right. We who work behind the scenes have been busy this weekend to finish up the new galleries for images like this (we were a bit behind on this), and I can now add that Gallery to this nom. Unfortunately, people tend to think that if there isn't a Gallery for it, then an image can't be featured, but it is the other way around: We create Galleries for the images that are featured, whatever the subject or technique used. --Cart (talk) 15:46, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Plus 'pinging' ArionStar and Julesvernex2 who were worried about the gallery, please read my post above. We are soon done with more new galleries, these things take time to fix, but two are now up and running: Photo techniques/Composites and Montages and Photo techniques/Styles and Techniques. --Cart (talk) 15:53, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Cart et al. for putting these together! I have a soft spot for the "Minimalism" sub-section, great stuff in there --Julesvernex2 (talk) 18:24, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Surely humour gets a pass from the usual rules :) --Julesvernex2 (talk) 21:20, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
*  Oppose I thought, in this case, it would be okay writing nothing. But okay, if it is necessary: I see nothing outstanding here. A quite ordinary message in an nice form, but nothing really wowing.
