Support pi with 4000 digits --Arad 01:56, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Why do we need 3 nominations of the same thing? IMHO it would be better to choose the best image and nominate just that one. Snowwayout 02:07, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well i don't know which one is the best but we can put all of them in one nomination. --Arad 02:14, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think that is a good idea. Alvesgaspar 09:25, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I don’t agree that the depicted pi has 4 000 digits. The size of the digits is decreasing linearly becoming zero in the last fifth of the image. Assuming, for simplicity, that we have about 70% of the 1280 pixels available for representing the number (about 900 pixels), and that we assign one pixel to each digit and another to the space between them, the best we can do is represent about 450 digits, not 4000.

Comment To answer the person above of me. You are partially right because around 900(not 450) are fully visible. The rest are there but because if the glossy reflections on the glass and the irregular lighting, the rest of the numbers are overly bright. But I can guarantee you that there is 4000 numbers, If you are furthur interrested E-mail me and I'll give you the complete Maya file and you can see for yourself.

Comment I'm sure you have considered all 4000 digits in the rendering application, but that is not the point. The point is to represent each of them as a separate graphical entity you need, at least, 2 pixels: one for the digit and the other for the space that follows. In the present case, you don't have enough pixels avaliable. But you could, at least in theory, make a new output with a much larger resolution in which all digits were visible.

Info As suggested by Arad, I have grouped all images in the same nomination. Alvesgaspar 11:56, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose — I only see the first 20-30 digits after that its just a multicoloured dimishing line, given that its suppose to be 4000 digits I'd expect to see clearly the first 10%. Additionally the choice of colouring creates and an optical illusion to the top portion of the 3 twisting it 90^o to the rest of the digit. Gnangarra 05:32, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Not much artistic value. FPs should be the best works available on commons. This can be created in two minutes. --Dschwen 10:34, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
