Ballpoint of common ballpoint pen

The tip of a common disposable ballpoint pen. The ball, with dark ink on it, can be seen.

• The details of the pen in this picture seem to be absolutely amazing in detail. the shine on the of the ink on the actual ball of the pen is great looking, and the photograph really captures the inticracy of gold-colored tip's rings.

• Oppose. This is much too small. Please see the size requirements at Wikipedia:What is a featured picture? --Tewy 03:40, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
• Oppose Someone hasn't checked the size requirements (approx 1000 pixels high or wide, minimum). The larger version of this pic is 320 by 246! - Adrian Pingstone 10:00, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
• Strongly Oppose - please actually bother to read the requirements before posting a pic, you're just wasting server space and our time. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 10:16, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

• Comment - Nevermind, I misunderstood the requirements, thinking it was 1000 pixels or bigger total, not that it was at least 1,000 in width or length. FireSpike 18:13, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

• I'm going to Oppose with no snarkiness. I'm sure that this attractive and informative photo was nominated in good faith, and that the servers can handle it, and our time is not so valuable, that they can't be wasted a little. --Bridgecross 14:45, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

    • I just took a replacement for this, Image:Ballpoint pen close-up.jpg, but I do not think it is FP material. I did replace this one in the article with it. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 22:05, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
• Oppose resolution. I wonder, what would be involved in this subject becoming an FP, is it possible? Opinions please. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 01:19, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
