Oppose Nothing remarkable, and dislike the harsh lighting and strong shadows. --ELEKHH^T 10:43, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support A clear background means this is a studio picture, very rare in Commons pictures. Thus, should be featured. I love the harsh lighting and strong shadows. (Gussisaurio (talk) 18:17, 13 July 2011 (UTC))[reply]
Oppose As ELEKHH and not wow to me--Miguel Bugallo 01:38, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment A clear background means, that Mmxx has edited it that way. I liked the original upload featuring vignetting and a scratch on his forehead. Please consider using {{Retouched picture}} to explicitly communicate any changes to an image. A short notion in the file's changelog is not really self-explanatory.

I've removed some scars from his forehead and arm, do you think I should upload the retouched image with a new name? I'm not sure if they were some temporary scars or permanent ones (which could be part of subjects personality) ■ MMXX ^talk 19:33, 16 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I strongly recommend this for each and every derivative of an original. It'll help people to refer to an original, and they don't have to look anything up in the file history. Especially if working with archival material, this becomes handy. You must not destruct the integrety of original works by simply overwriting them. Since we don't have a capacity issue here on Commons you can invest some extra bytes in uploading new images instead of overwriting the old ones. There are various systems on how to denote your edits in a proper way. I tend to use the aforementioned template for retouched versions and add "original" or "edit" to the image's filename when appropriate. Just a suggestion - see other works to find out what works best for you. Regards, PETER WEIS TALK 23:21, 16 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You are right, I'll revert and upload under a new name after this FPC finished. ■ MMXX ^talk 11:58, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
