• Medium  Support. I would rather the whole spider on focus. Tiago Fioreze (talk) 10:25, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose Per Tfioreze and needs species name (description says common, so must be doable). Also mention that this is a male in the description please. Lycaon (talk) 13:19, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose Per Lycaon. —kallerna™ 13:26, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose as others -- Dcubillas (talk) 13:31, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
•  Info added description (male Tegenaria parietina). Note that I could've made a focus stacked image to get more parts of the animal in focus, but that would've been cheating. And the DOF makes for a more dramatic picture, I think. -- 84.198.249.162 16:42, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
  • Nah, its not cheating. Its a common practice and if you can do it, I suggest you should --Muhammad 17:19, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
•  Info Atmosphere just a teensy bit too abrasive for me here. Ta! :) -- Michel Vuijlsteke (talk) 17:27, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
  •  Comment Yep... there are some people here who have forgotten to read the section "Above all, be polite". Just quoting it:

"Please don't forget that the image you are judging is somebody's work. Avoid using phrases like "it looks terrible" and "I hate it". If you must oppose, please do so with consideration. Also remember that your command of English might not be the same as someone elses. Choose your words with care." Tiago Fioreze (talk) 17:50, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

• If I was the impolite one, my apologies. --Muhammad 20:27, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
