[edit] Edit Summaries

Just as a note for your future reference. Generally its recommended to be nice, and not just on talk pages. This includes your edit summaries. It is possible to offend someone with a less than kind edit summary. Example. You replaced the image of the Amazon kindle a while back, which is more than fine. But writing "The last pic was terrible" in the comments does not make you any friends. The "last pic" was made by a human after all and could come back and see that their picture had been replaced - and even find their edit. And yes, the original picture of the Kindle was mine. Luckily I don't take offense that easily. Just something to keep in mind for next time. --ShakataGaNai ^Talk 06:24, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Howdy. I got your note on my commons talk page. Thanks for the response. I have to say, I completely understand you defensiveness over people "Attacking" your precious electronics. I'm a geek - I do it too. As for the quality of the picture, you are right about the colors being off - it looked fine (fine being "ok" in terms of colors, not great) the screen I originally made it on - but I'm sure you understand how LCD's aren't necessarily reliable in terms of color reproduction. I will endeavor to better color correct my photo's next time. Oh, and I really do like your picture. Mine was designed to be a very "stock" shot, while yours makes it feel human. Keep up the good work - and continue feeling bold in replacing pictures with better ones (even if they are mine ^_^). --ShakataGaNai ^Talk 01:17, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
