• Are you Serious Brad? Come on Brad, this is really poor quality. The shark biting the arm looks the worste. Awesome idea, poor presentation. --Sir Zombiebaron 02:03, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
• Against. Agree w/Zb (and good luck if you choose to redo it, water's a bitch, what with the sort 'o transparentness and all).--Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 02:27, 31 October 2006 (UTC) Abstain, I'm pondering the difficulties of "water" (my hearts with you on this one)...so fix the arm and replace one of the "twin"'d sharks and I'll be for.--Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 04:08, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

• I'm trying to figure out what "shark biting arm" thing you and ZombieBaron are talking about. If it's the shark surrounded by four guys on the far right, he came that way with the bulge in his mouth; I didn't try to add in any effects to make it look like he was chomping an arm. -- §. | WotM | PLS | T | C | A 04:32, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

• Comment, then make it an arm, maybe? Whether it was originally there or not, it doesn't look right.--Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 04:40, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

• Err... I fixed it, but the changes haven't shown up as of yet. Tell me if I did it right. -- §. | WotM | PLS | T | C | A 05:44, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Better. Now you just need to swap out one of the twin'd sharks. --Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 06:03, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

OK, I'll do that later; right now, I have school to attend to. -- §. | WotM | PLS | T | C | A 15:33, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Done. -- §. | WotM | PLS | T | C | A 00:05, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

There, see how easy that was? It probably would have been easier, had the pic not gone from Reefer Desk to VFP in the time it takes me type this comment out. As I said at the start; make changes/change vote. Now it's up to me, I guess.--Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 02:36, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

• I too will change my vote Mr. Squiggle if you could change the things which I mentioned. Let me list them:
  

1) There is a shark jumping out of the water, sourrouned by 4 men. It appears that he is biting one of the men's arms, however the shark blends into the man's arm, and it appears as if the man has a shark growing out of his arm. This looks really bad.
2) The new shark which you added made the whole top right hand corner a lighter shade of colors then everything else (which darkened with the new version of the image).
3) All of the sharks appear to have diffrent perspectives. This is most notable seen in the bottom left hand corner, where it appears that one of the sharks is swimming on its side. Wierd.
4) The new shark (which was first introduced in the most recent version of the image) looks like its picture was taken while it was underwater.

I'm sorry to be so picky, I really like the idea of sharks and water polo, its just that the image really bothers me due to its overall quality. However if you can make the above fixes, will change my vote for you. Cheers, --Sir Zombiebaron 22:07, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

I think it's too late for the one, underwater lopsided shark (I've always though of him as swooping to eat that one guy on the right of him), and the top right new shark was photographed above water [1], but against a primarily blue background. Don't know what you mean by 1); which guy? Right? Left? I'll try to fix the lighter corner, though. -- §. | WotM | PLS | T | C | A 00:26, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

He means the guy missing part of his arm, methinks; there should be a more defined edge between his arm and the shark's fin (one blurs into the other, currently). On a side note: welcome to VFP. Isn't it fun? --Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 00:31, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Oh my. Thank you Modus. I just realized that what I mistook for a shark colored arm was acctually the fin of the shark! In that case, you should delete the fin, or do something else with it, because it confused me greatly. --Sir Zombiebaron 00:38, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

I just edited it a little, and I couldn't quite fix the corner, I made it look more like a reflection from a shiny thing. Perhaps the Sun. I don't know. Also, I better defined where the armless guy's arm ends and where the shark fin begins. VFP was easier when I was a n00b. -- §. | WotM | PLS | T | C | A 01:12, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

VFP was also easier for you when I couldn't use the "I've done better and can prove it" argument. Yah, nice job with the guys arm, but the perpsective and the corner are still off. Its probably time to just foget about me and my complaints, seeing as its so close to the cusp of being featured. Sorry, --Sir Zombiebaron 15:44, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

It's OK. I don't mind not getting your vote, because the important thing is that at least the image has been drastically improved since the first version, even if it still has a few problems. -- §. | WotM | PLS | T | C | A 21:02, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

I agree with that statement. And in the long run, that's all that matters. --Sir Zombiebaron 22:08, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
