All of them[edit]

it's the digital reconstruction of an original triskel with that shape. i worked on multiple textures to choose which one mostly matches with the shape. /\/\π 09:10, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, but can you cite the source of this original trsikel? Is it of historical value or otherwise known? norro 15:29, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
this is a Celtic triskel. Triskel was perhaps the most important and sacred symbol in Celtic religion, and was depicted using many different shapes in Celtic art. this shape is one of them. this is its historical value; unfortunately I can't find the source of the image at the moment... --/\/\π 12:18, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

 Neutral - i dont know about the historical or cultural background of this triskel but in my opinion your three versions are all a bit too colorful - maybe a more neutral version would be better and wouldn't distract from the shape (which seems to be the main point here).--AngMoKio 21:49, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

for the historical / cultural value of the symbol, see my sentence just above. for the colors, well, I may agree with your opinion... the colors are fictionals, since the original triskel was colorless. i could prepare another version using less "artistic" colors..... :-P --/\/\π 12:26, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose --> I dont see the reasoning behind the choice of colours/texture/patterns. Also, why so many candidates? Why not select the best image and nominate it? Snowwayout 01:12, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
well, I actually don't know which of the 3 images is the best one. I thought the community would choose one (or more) through multiple nomination.. that's all. if I committed a mistake... sorry!! :-) --/\/\π 12:16, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
