‎Ecchi anime girl, not in dutch angle, since it would demand too much from US voters. (more info inside the description)
comparison of composition rules that apply: (from t2b l2r: third rule, golden ratio, diagonals 45 and golden mean.)
  •  Info I know that this is the same girl. But the discussion at EN told me that a good composition is a bad composition. At least at a point if you can't find any more good reasons to oppose an image, that you find offensive (for some reason i can't understand it as an educated being). So i have thrown away the composition guides and gave up upon the misunderstood dutch angle, since no one noticed that it has bigger meaning than just depicting something evil. Maybe Hollywood is to blame to use it without thought in always the same repeating patterns. If you look at the comparison you can clearly see that i was giving it a thought. That means either that the voters (on EN) don't know anything about composition or they are actually playing dump, to make a point based on prudery. I don't really care about the outcome of this voting, basically i wanted to hear the thoughts on composition (as G.A.S. did) and how much anyone cares about the image description. --Niabot (talk) 09:33, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • I've seen a discussion on en.Wikipedia and I can only say that some people really have issues. I'd support this image only if it's not pretty much the same image as already featured one. --Lošmi (talk) 11:04, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • As Lošmi said, en.wiki has issues with anime-related topics. Do not let it bother you. But I still believe the original is superior to this one, and would not want it replaced with this one. G.A.S 20:02, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
