 * Sorry, but IPs do not have suffrage at FPC. If you wish to vote, please create an account. It is also good etiquette to provide a reason for your support, even if it is 'per nomination'. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 10:17, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Support. Looks good, more FP-worthy than his official portrait. TheCoffee (talk) 02:31, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose, facial expression looks like he is either playing an invisible trumpet or just got done sucking a lemon. TAway (talk) 03:58, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Strong Support - Noteworthy image, very well taken, and of a historical moment in history. Jason (talk) 04:58, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Perhaps we should wait a while to see if any better pictures of the inauguration come out. Makeemlighter (talk) 06:41, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - I think we should suspend all Obama/inauguration related nominations for a week, to see if any better photos emerge. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 10:17, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree. I think a bit of distance from the excitement (or maybe more than a bit) will let us deal with these without relying as much on our own personal impressions of what is or isn't a "historical moment in history".--ragesoss (talk) 17:06, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I also agree with this plan. ~  ωαdεstεr 16 «talkstalk» 18:42, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Pile-on agree. Omnibus (talk) 18:45, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * So does that mean that these noms should be suspended?--HereToHelp (talk to me) 20:02, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, and any subsequent noms should be held until next Tuesday. We need time to digest everything out there so the best of the best can come forward. ~  ωαdεstεr 16 «talkstalk» 21:33, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Support Original is too insipid, I prefer Edit 1. --06:02, 22 January 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by NBALIVE2551 (talk • contribs)
 * Oppose - Nowhere near the quality or EV of his official portrait, which was just defeated. Cacophony (talk) 03:45, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose since this wasn't suspended. Not high enough quality or EV. Makeemlighter (talk) 03:26, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
