  • Oppose - seems to have been very heavily post-processed to bring out detail for analysis. I'd prefer a more realistic view - Adrian Pingstone 08:13, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Support - bringing out detail isn't a bad thing; that's how it's done with all the nebula images which are featured. They're actually pretty dull looking without the false colors. --brian0918™ 14:35, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Support, but barely. The swirling fluidity is very beautiful and mesmerizing. However, the resolution is low and the banding artefacts of the scanning vidicon tube are distracting.--Deglr6328 01:01, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • Bigger resolution=me likey :)--Deglr6328 03:31, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • support Beautiful and certainly add significantly. Circeus 01:59, Apr 19, 2005 (UTC)
  • Support Original. I have made a half hearted attempt at removing the banding artefacts of the scanning vidicon tube, but of course that came at the expense of blurring the image slightly. I don't think that they are too bad on the original and only really become visible on the full res photo. --Fir0002 07:51, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • Comment. Here is the TIFF of the thing [1]. Maybe you can get more sharpness of it --Bricktop 23:51, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Support either. lovely. Enochlau 10:56, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Support edited image. I remember how this image took my breath away when I first saw it. Denni 02:23, 2005 Apr 20 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Agree with Adrian Pingstone. Janderk 08:01, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Support. There are multiple views in the article, and this one certainly enriches it.--Eloquence* 05:33, Apr 27, 2005 (UTC)

Promoted Image:Jupiter from Voyager 1.jpg 8 / -3 No clear preference for either version, so I will go with Image:Jupiter from Voyager 1.jpg which is on Commons and appears to be identical to #1 here.
