It doesn't look racist to me, standard engraving, would not look out or place in the Wall Street Journal. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 00:30, 4 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

Oh, no, Richard, that's 100% racist dog whistle, above the lead in a "news" story in the (white, conservative, Democratic) Atlanta Constitution. "The 'political boss' of the Republicans is a NEGRO!!!" That's the message sent, complete with the "puttin' on airs" meme with an old fashioned bow tie and walking stick...

Why aren't you allowing dynamic sizing to take effect? 240px might be right for you screen, but is sure looks tiny on my screen. If you leave off the parameter, the size set in preferences takes effect, and there is a default size for people not logged in. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 17:00, 4 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
