Template talk:POTD/2011-07-02

I recommend showing this the way it is shown in article at Painted turtle. Wide and with caption at bottom. Having the key at the side is a waste of space and makes the map so small, we can't see the writing. If we just take exactly that way of showing it, but wikilink the article, that would be sufficient.
 * Agreed, it loses it's purpose if made so small you can't read the writing. Regards, SunCreator (talk) 22:11, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
