Support even it looks a bit strange -- D-Kuru (talk) 22:43, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
Support very nice --Heptagon (talk) 00:03, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
Oppose This is a spherical projection. Rectilinear or cylindrical would be much less distorted. --Romwriter (talk) 08:18, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
Oppose, I assume the projection was intentionally chosen, but I can't say I like it. "Special" projections are fine for some artistic/landscape pictures, but not for a plain photo of a building. --Aqwis (talk) 09:17, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
Oppose by autor. I, the photograph, would also like to promote some other new images from me. The light is not optimal, I was too near with my gigapan-imager-bot on the building and I cut some steps of the stair. The resolution is only 1/9 of the original resolution. So too many things are not optimal. On the other side I want to use the features images process to make en:Gigapan more popular in the Commons Community. I would like to promote Image:Dresden-Wallpavillion-gp.jpg, Image:Dresden-Nymphenbad-gp.jpg or Image:Dresden-Semperoper-gp.jpg with better light and more natural perspective. Alternative I would like to promote Image:Dresden-Hauptbahnhof2.jpg in his original resolution of 520 Megapixel. :-D --Kolossos (talk) 15:27, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
Comment The project should be en:Mercator projection, which is cylindrical projection. --Kolossos (talk) 16:49, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
Oppose High vertical distortion --Twdragon (talk) 17:45, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
Oppose Projection issues --S23678 (talk) 20:23, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
