[edit] Picture

Can we get a more professional picture, that is to say, an actual picture of an actual skeleton from somewhere? I don't see anything particularly impressive about this fake, watermarked "3D" one, and I'm positive I can find a picture of a skeleton that's public domain. Unless anyone has any strong objections, I'm going to change the picture in the next few days. --Detruncate 04:13, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Not only that, but the picture/diagram is wrong; it has the hand and foot bones labelled as "carpals" instead of carpals and tarsals respectively. --D-Gen

Feel free to let me know what you would like on an image and I'll see what I can come up with. Our images are renders of 3d models developed from human MRI and CT data. I apologize for having errors on the last image. 3dscience 20:05, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Sorry but this article is a serious diappointment you would expect a full detailed article with actual pictures. This is a disgrace to wikipedia. The article Bone is very poor too -how can wikipedia expect to be taken seriously with articles like these? ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you" "S.P.E.C.T.R.E" 20:42, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia can do better than this!

You people don't even have a redirection to bone or don't even mention that the bones in the skeletal system stores certain materials. —The preceding Jramirez23 comment was added by Jramirez23 (talkcontribs) 22:52, 3 April 2007 (UTC).

True, this article -- like many/most -- could be improved, and you are more than welcome to do so. However, there is a link to bone in it. I don't think such a redirect would be appropriate. There is a template message that applies here:
