•  Support - beautiful. A clean, nice and close shot. — H92 (t · c · no) 14:46, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
•  Comment Vassil: As in crop a bit off the left? Like how much? Also, I couldn't get any closer because the cameras shadow would obscure the subject, and I didn't want it to fly away. -IG-64 16:36, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
•  Support it's nice, and I don't need a crop. The aphids make this shot special over a standard "lady bug" picture. -- Ram-Man 02:30, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Vote left by User:Groupie alias Heidi, looks like a valid vote to me, I don't think there's anything in the rules that says they've got to sign properly, just that they must be logged in --Tony Wills 13:19, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

• Sorry, but it appears that User:Groupie is also a "virtual" one, since it was created with the only purpose of voting here (no edits before or after). This is the same as an anonymous user. - Alvesgaspar 23:02, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

• You are probably right, but users don't have different levels of ability to vote - creating a usercode to vote on something is quite valid, so long as they aren't using multiple 'sock puppet' accounts. If that is your concern then you should ask an admin to check-out the account and find whether for instance the same IP address has been used to create lots of accounts and there are lots of invalid votes and other activities. --Tony Wills 23:50, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
