- Support as nominator – — Crisco 1492 (talk) 16:11, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
- Comment The controller obviously clutters the view somewhat, but otherwise nice. Could be retaken with a clear view. Brandmeistertalk 20:11, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
- Ping Evan Amos, in case he wants to consider it. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 20:44, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
- I don't want to vote until Evan Amos comments... Adam Cuerden (talk) 11:11, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
- Support; while I couldn't care less about the PS4 besides the neat indie titles shown off last E3, the image appears to suitably represent the product. Certainly is a giant image. Tezero (talk) 01:37, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose It bothers me that the controller obstructs the console. It's also not the most ideal angle to show the console. -- mcshadypl TC 23:22, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose per above --DUCK404 a (talk) 23:38, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
- Hand in hand, opposers. Support Hafspajen (talk) 20:57, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
- This is not the place to bring this up Hafspajen - please use this part of Wikipedia for comments on pictures only, not on users. Your support looks like it's purely to counterbalance an accusation of sock puppets, which is not a valid reason for a support. I would suggest striking your comments, and either adding a valid reason for support, or have it as a seperate line rather than as a follow on from the line above. gazhiley 15:03, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
- No, not quite. I like the picture, gazhiley. I think it is clear, crisp, good ev. I think it is well composed actually, balanced within the picture with the diagonals and the volumes well matching each other. And about sock-puppets, I think we had our fair share of it lately. Hafspajen (talk) 15:07, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
- Fair enough, but can you see why your wording might indicate that your support wasn't related to the picture? gazhiley 15:10, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
- Fair enough. Hafspajen (talk) 15:10, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
- Hafspajen, my decisions do not affect yours, so stop treating this as some "competition". --DUCK404 a (talk) 18:49, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
- Support The console and controller go together. This photographer has a lot of experiencing photographing hardware of this sort. Nothing significant is obscured with the controller. This is an ideal way to showcase this hardware. The image quality could not be better; the angle of the subject matter seems to be what is being critiqued but I am not persuaded that any complaint like this should prevent the promotion of this picture.
