Gecko[edit]

A green gecko in Eastern Texas.

A high-res, clear shot of a green gecko for the gecko article.

NOTE: Not sure if this is policy or not, but I'd like to withdraw this image and replace with Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Gecko Revision, which is farther up the page. This image can either be left to run its cycle and be dismissed or the votes can be crossed out.

  • Slight oppose. The gecko looks all right, but I find the shadow over its back distracting. - 131.211.210.11 09:18, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Ahem.. That was me... -Mgm|(talk) 09:19, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Gecko is cut off, shadows and out-of-focus twigs detract. Camerafiend 22:02, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - shadow, dark, blurry background distract. Flcelloguy (A note?) 01:41, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • ( − ) Oppose I think photo of a lizard has got to either be a close up of the head or the entire lizard. The gecko however is cut off, and the image isn't sharp enought/high enough res to get a good crop of the face IMO --Fir0002 02:02, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I really like the head, but I would like to see the entire gecko. Also, for a gecko shot, the feet are incredibly important, and they are concealed by a stick. --liquidGhoul 02:41, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Distinct color difference between background and gecko - high quality, shows the small bumps on gecko's skin, as well as other important details (color around eyes, white bottom, small white dots on back).
  • Oppose per liquidGhoul. enochlau (talk) 06:27, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I like it. Eyesclosed 19:47, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Uploaded another picture. This one shows more of the body + feet. drumguy8800 - speak? 09:32, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Since it's a completely different picture, you might want to start another FPC section for it, otherwise it's not going to receive the same amount (and time) of exposure as it would otherwise. enochlau (talk) 23:20, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
