- Support - Cool pic. Grain acceptable for astronomy images. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:15, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
- Support But perhaps a few pixel should be taken off the left side to remove the bright stripe? Adam Cuerden (talk) 14:22, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
- Look full resolution on the left. It's thin enough (and not THAT bright) so it doesn't show much smaller than full res. Actually, t°here's one top and bottom too, though not so much on the right. http://toolserver.org/~dschwen/iip/wip.php?f=NGC1097 - ESO - eso0438d.jpg Adam Cuerden (talk) 19:55, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
- I've looked in my browser at full resolution and in an image editor with a zoom of over 1000%. I don't see any stripes. I tried to click on that toolserver link but it opens a blank page for me. --Pine✉ 20:45, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
- Perhaps I'm not describing it well enough. It's not a well-defined band, it's an increase in the amount of (for lack of a better word) bright-coloured static. If you're zoomed in THAT much, you'll never see it. (though there is a band of that type just right of the small... companion galaxy, is that? - in the upper left.

- Weak Support - A little grainy for my tastes. I think the other NGC FPs are a little better-composed and some sharper. ceranthor 02:28, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
