 * Hmm. This is a great image and I'm sure some version of it is featurable. This one I'm not really convinced by the colors, but I haven't looked at the lossless original ('cause it's 227 mb!); in any case, I always prefer an edit of a historical image to have its changes documented, and an unedited jpg uploaded for comparison (the tiff is obviously not an option in this case).

 * I think from looking at the smaller version of the original, that the colors are too saturated for the restoration. — raeky  t  23:16, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
 * It's not uncommon for that to happen: Adjusting levels often ups saturation a bit. Adam Cuerden (talk) 10:30, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
 * I know it can happen, :P I'm just saying I think it's a bit over done. — raeky  t  10:37, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Support I think the colours are okay, but I would support a more faithful version too. Purpy Pupple (talk) 00:56, 24 February 2013 (UTC)
