  • Might I suggest picture peer review? Upload all your pics, post them there and we'll have a look at them without the formality of a featured picture candidacy. MER-C 13:01, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Due to composition. There are several more encyclopedic photos on the Iguazu Falls page. This one only shows a small fraction of the falls. Cacophony (talk) 22:58, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • I hope you know that Iguazu Falls is a long stretch of falls, and the one in the article is the "devil's neck". My picture is different one. --Mitchipr (talk) 02:30, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong oppose Exposure bad, resolution not high enough, not sharp, boring. —αἰτίας discussion 17:59, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • It certainly isnt boring! Muhammad Mahdi Karim (talk) 18:26, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • You're right - It's more than that. Just because of the worst quality. —αἰτίας discussion 19:18, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
        • Please stay civil. Saying an image is of the worst quality is not helpful to any and doesn't justify your points. Anyhow this image does meet the resolution requirements, so that's not a valid reason on its own, and boring is a very vague and subjective comment. thegreen J Are you green? 21:11, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
          • Wow, I don't know what your problem is Aitias, I'm just trying to be friendly and thought it'll be a nice picture to see. If you want to complain that it's boring and all, why don't you go ahead and take an image of it yourself? Muhammad Mahdi Karim and Thegreen, thank you for your kind comments :) --Mitchipr (talk) 02:30, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Nice image. Mitchipr, please do not take it personally with αἰτίας. He/she likes to go with strong opposes :)--Mbz1 (talk) 04:13, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • LOL: He is just saying his opinion straightly. Its just my humble opinion, that an image must be more than just nice to be a FP. It has to meet some criterias which lift it up. This image doesn't fit in such criterias - It's an averagely image: That's not enough for a FP. Sorry. —αἰτίας discussion 22:05, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ok, and don't you think one opinion is enough? Why are you spamming this page now? All I need is one vote/opinion from one person, now you're just trying to make everyone agree with you and pushing your opinion. --Mitchipr (talk) 05:02, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Would "spamming the page" include commenting on every single opposition vote? Please don't take it personally when someone is critical of your image, nominating an image for FP is an invitation for criticism. No need to reply to every single comment.

Well, it is my picture and I do want people to know how I feel about it. If they reply positive, I thank them, if nagative, I thank them but yes, you are right, I kind of took Aitias personal. But I still think its nice to comment on every comment. For now, I'll put it on picture peer review. Note that I did not take your comment personal, and replied generally, --Mitchipr (talk) 01:30, 24 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Aqwis, thank you for putting it nicely :) Aitias, I already heard your opinion. --Mitchipr (talk) 05:02, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
