Support There are three big world sport events. The Summer Olympic Games, the Fifa World cup of soccer, and the "Tour de France". Celebrating this year the 100th "Tour de France", let's enjoy this press portrait photograph of the very first winner (1903) of this mythic race: Maurice Garin. High resolution picture of 1911, restored. Not technically perfect, but a really high and featurable value, IMO. Original file available as first upload, as usual. Thank you for interest.-- Jebulon (talk) 16:45, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Excellent restoration of the portrait of a historically interesting sportsman. To be compared with the portraits of the winners of modern times...:-) --Cayambe (talk) 18:51, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support Sure. I guess the portraits of the winners of modern times definitely don't have such a moustache. (just joking; excellent restoration of a good portrait.) J Kadavoor J e e 04:30, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- - (Sigh)... Maybe any chemical assistance would have help for promotion... But this one drank only french red wine... --Jebulon (talk) 09:52, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    - Try in EN:Wiki; this old fellow seems to have not enough wow without chemical assistance. :( JKadavoor Jee 13:59, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      - Hi Jee, thanks for interest, but no. I'm afraid I'm against FP contests in wikipedia(s). I think it is just confusing, and I'm happy this does not exist in the french wikipédia :).--Jebulon (talk) 14:10, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        Agree with you to some extend. For me, the Wikipedia (EN) FP is almost like a VI+QI with or without wow. Redundancy indeed. And some people whose works are not eligible here consider it as a refuge. J Kadavoor J e e 15:52, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
