Oppose. Not bad, but IMO not quite as good as the version that is already featured. --Dschwen 23:25, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Yes, that was the reason why I haven't nominated this pic here though its is already a FP in the English Wikipedia. But I thought it over and realized that they serve different purposes. The animation illustrates the use of the caliper and can only be seen in a computer display or data show, the individual images are too small and of poor quality to be printed. The svg file if a high quality image intended to illustrate the various parts of the instrument and to be printed. There is already a similar example of two FP pictures: Image:Using sextant swing.gif and Image:Marine sextant.svg - Alvesgaspar 13:21, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Incidentely also two of your pictures. A bad precedence IMO. --Dschwen 15:04, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support it has a different use than the animated one. Lycaon 05:26, 25 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support It's a pity to query this on the grounds that Alvesgaspar has done some similar excellent work in another format. The question should be "is this one of the best illustrations we have on Commons?" and the answer is yes. --MichaelMaggs 09:48, 25 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose good work, but no "magic touch" that could amaze the viewer --Orlovic (talk) 14:26, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral Definitely quality, but it's hard to get wow appeal into a picture of engineering tools. (Animation is one way though :-) --Tony Wills 08:51, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Moving version Image:Using the caliper new.gif was IHMO better, so why to repeat voting again?? --Karelj 20:20, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support agree with Lycaon --Simonizer 22:48, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
