Original – The Commodore 64, one of the most popular home computers in the '80s.
Reason
This is my first time nominating my own work and so I figured that I'd give it a shot. I think that this photo could fit the featured photo criteria as the Commodore 64 is an iconic piece of computer history.

Png is generally reserved for drawings and illustrations, like coats of arms, but that isn't a big problem. Brandmeister t 18:47, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support either jpg or png. JJ Harrison (talk) 09:41, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - it's a photograph, should be in JPEG format. --Xijky (talk) 16:55, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I changed it to the JPG version. The photos that I take for infoboxes are transparent background PNGs, since that was the requested format for video game consoles photos after a while. I've made it habit to have both a JPG and PNG available, since the JPGs look better at different sizes than the PNG files. Evan-Amos (talk) 19:57, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support large and clear photo. Pinetalk 08:10, 26 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
