[edit]

I mistakenly removed the two nominations because I believed they were both withdrawn. I'm putting it on top again in the hope this will compensate my mistake. I also hope you'll accept to have its voting period extended by one day. My apologies to everyone. Benh (talk) 21:11, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
SHORT DESCRIPTIONSHORT DESCRIPTION

  • We've already talked about oversaturation last time. May I please remind you about this? "At first after reading the comment I wanted to make my image look dull (not "Oversaturated"), but then I decided what for? You would come with another reason to oppose, don't you, Hans. BTW about "Oversaturated", here are few samples from Flickr [1] (103 comments 99 faves};[2] ( 19 comments 27 faves} and a dull one (not "Oversaturated") [3] ( no comments no faves}. No, my image is not oversaturated at all. The image correctly represents the beautiful and briliant colors of the mound."--Mbz1 (talk) 17:03, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • The votes for the nomination have ended at 03:59 July 17.The nomination was removed for 30 minutes maybe less, which makes it to end of votes at 4:30 July 17, so I believe the last vote by Simonizer is against the rules, but on the other hand I hardly care about that nomination any more, so whatever.--Mbz1 (talk) 22:01, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose Hope you won't take it personaly again. I maintain this is oversaturated, or at least unproperly processed. Look at the people and their orange skin. I don't believe this is due to sunbathing. Benh (talk) 20:42, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Indians don't have orange/red skins as far as I know. The ones on this picture are not exception to this. And you should temper yourself down a bit sometimes. I'm just here to give my opinion, and that's what you must get ready for when you nominate a picture on FPC. I always try to justify any of my opposes, and am ready to discuss with any person willing the same. Benh (talk) 21:13, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, I don't think "tan american Indians" have red orange flashy skin. Your nomination has been significantly saturated, as can know be proven by comparing it to original. Lycaon noticed it too, other people noticed too. Why not, sometimes, admitting when there's something wrong on one of your nomination, and try to fix it, or have it fixed ? My comment on lava flow nomination was justified I believe. Quality could be better, and composition wasn't to my taste. As you often like to refer, a bad picture of a very difficult subject is a better picture than a good picture of an ordinary subject, but there are limits to this. I would have opposed, but knew this wouldn't have changed anything. I won't justify to you again. Benh (talk) 06:53, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • You're mistaken. My lava image is a good picture of of a very difficult subject. It was supported by 24 people (me exluded) and opposed by none (blessing God you found it too late). It got 46th place in Picture of the Year voted by 120 people above any of your "good quality" images. That's why your so called "justifying" of the quality of the image only proves one more time what quality, fairness and validity your "justifying" and your voting are.You won't justify to me again? Thank you! It is going to be really hard, but I'll live with this.--Mbz1 (talk) 03:39, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
