- Oppose, I tend to think that pages such as this should be represented by more famous images (Stalin photo manipulations) and not Wikipedia self references. Had this been a specific skill with no famous public domain examples (Photoshop-swap-heads). But, I don't think this is the proper image to put as an FP for something as basic as image manipulation which I feel could be better represented. gren グレン 07:37, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose. Too trivial for a FP, per Gren. MER-C 12:41, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose. Images are not appropriate for Wikipedia articles, per Wikipedia:Self-references to avoid. Kaldari (talk) 16:32, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose. For one thing, the hand on Jimmy Wales's head (belonging to the nymph on the left) looks unrealistic. NotFromUtrecht (talk) 06:53, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose. Nice work, but zero EV, the original version fits best. Brand[t] 10:10, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose Per above. I don't believe that such images can be featured. Pmlineditor Talk
- Oppose. I'm really not big on these self references, and, if push came to shove, I think I'd support removing the image from the article. It reminds me of a Wikipedia-themed lolcat I removed from our article. This image is actually very Uncyclopedia, and more than a little silly. J Milburn (talk) 23:15, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
