[edit] BDSM collar back

Reason
I'm just not sure that if this image were nominated today, it'd make it through the FPC process and gain the star. Its resolution is substandard and its depth of field seems a bit too shallow (the right and top edges of the collar itself are blurry, to say nothing of the rest of the image). It might just be an error introduced by the scan. It works OK as an illustration of the subject, but I'm not sure it's of feature quality. Given the wide availability of the object depicted, it just seems to me that we could do better. GeeJo (t)(c) • 21:41, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

  • PS. It may be worthwhile extending the deadline slightly on this image to give time for feedback on a new scan, if one is forthcoming. GeeJo (t)(c) • 13:17, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep — it's iconic, and the important parts are in focus. ('Course, I'm partial.) grendel|khan 22:12, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
  • I'm pretty sure I know the answer already, but I don't suppose you happen to have a higher-resolution version available for upload? That'd at least rectify one of the problems. GeeJo (t)(c) • 22:46, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Well, it was scanned from a print; I think I may still have the print around, but I'd need to dig it up. I'm on vacation until January 2 or so; if I can find it, it'll be on the last day of voting. I suppose I can always resubmit it. grendel|khan 14:58, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delist — is below the required size (1000px), it's rather blurry. AzaToth 22:40, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delist per all above. sd31415 (sign here) 00:52, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delist Per all above. --¿Why1991 ESP. | Sign Here 04:27, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delist. Also boring pic. --frothT C 22:18, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delist size requirements, and the important parts are not really in focus. They're just in better focus than the other parts. --Bridgecross 16:25, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • delist, tight focus is artsy but not clearly illustrative of the subject. I've had qualms about this one for a while but never got around to listing it. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 21:45, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delist does not meet the FP standards. For it is too small and way to blurry. — Arjun 15:14, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delist Per all above. Its too blurry. Daniel10 21:43, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Until better picture suitable replacement is found <---- That really says it all. Although I agree that this picture is technically flawed, the picture does have a good encyclopedic value. I propose that we keep it until a suitable replacement can be found (which shouldn't be too hard, actually). S h a r k f a c e 2 1 7 08:18, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
    • We're not deleting it. The picture will go on contributing whatever encyclopedic value it can just as it always has. We're just recognizing as you have that it's flawed and shouldn't be presented as our best work. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 14:49, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delist boring and definitely not one of WP's finest photos. Wikipediarules2221 02:05, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
