Light Bulb and Filament edit

File:Light-bulb-and-filament.jpg
Cool and warm at the same time, showing the form of a light bulb that cannot normally be appreciated while in use...

It's eye grabbing and unique, and shows beauty and complexity to something people take for mundane; Features in Incandescent light bulb, orignally uploaded by Iantresman.

  • Support Despite the fact that it isn't a huge image (348x599) it is very informative to how a lightbulb works and what it looks like and it is a good quality image. Pegasus1138Talk | Contribs | Email ---- 23:56, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Too low resolution. And as far as I can tell, it's not free content (royalty free != free content). I'll replace this with a clearly free and more encyclopedic alternative, if someone doesn't beat me to it... Anyone care to make some 'feature requests' for the replacement image? --Gmaxwell 00:43, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • In particular, clear bulb or colored bulb? High key or low key? Thoughts? --Gmaxwell 00:44, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • Clear. DVD+ R/W 01:45, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
        • Clear and a nicer base too. I dont know if the background should be white or black though. -Ravedave 03:08, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • I don't see anything at the source (hemera.com) that states its images are CC. 64.128.179.40 13:24, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Too low resolution. You can't really see what's going on in there, a clear-colored bulb would probably be more informative. --Enano275 01:24, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose due to size. Good idea for a FP, though. -- bcasterlinetalk 02:52, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. It is a good photo, however the resolution is too low. If a higher resolution version becomes available I would change my vote to support.--Tnarg 12345 06:18, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Too small, cookie-cutter effect at edge, base tilted & ugly. It also looks like the colors are edited, not real. Let Gmaxwell shoot or find a better one!--Janke | Talk 08:00, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Oppose As above--Fir0002 www 08:57, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. For the all the reasons above. --Every1blowz 12:11, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose for all above reasons, in particular, a much larger shot of this could be taken, and the copyright issue. --Golbez 15:27, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. No way. --Life is like a box of chocolates 22:07, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
