 * Weak support It's nice, but the antennae are blurry, and I personally find the white sports on the leaf a bit distracting.  Spencer T♦C 22:01, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Support Alt 1. It's much better in focus here, though I have to admit, the background is a tad distracting.  Spencer T♦C 02:26, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose - "Blurry antennae". 8thstar' 01:10, 11 November 2008 (UTC) Alt1 is better... 8thstar' 00:43, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Support Alt1 for softer lighting, better focus. Background is interesting but not too distracting. Fletcher (talk) 14:29, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Support either - top one is actually better for identification since it shows the tarsi more clearly. de Bivort 16:00, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Support Alt1 - Better composition, lighting, and focus. Kaldari (talk) 18:01, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Support Alt1 You've done it again,Fir! --Fireaxe888 (talk) 18:46, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Support original Nice. I think the background of the alt 1 is pretty busy.--Caspian blue 21:22, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Support Alt1 I find it more interesting than the original Noodle snacks (talk) 23:43, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
