 * Comment -- Image has not been in article for requisite 7 days. Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:55, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment It needs to be retouched too.  ■ MMXX  talk  12:59, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Also I must add that I prefer the old lead image of the article, this one looks more real: File:James Abram Garfield, photo portrait seated.jpg  ■ MMXX  talk  13:13, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I would restore it, but I don't think it's really a FP worthy image. NativeForeigner Talk 20:09, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose As MMXX said, the previous lead image was much better than this here. Apart from the noise, the composition is boring and it has too much head room. -- GoP T C N 09:54, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Poor composition and technical issues. Clegs (engage in rational discourse) 12:58, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
 * This is not a great lithograph, and it replaced an excellent photograph. That edit should be reverted, and indeed, if the photograph remains stable in the article, we might consider it for FP instead. Chick Bowen 15:23, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose no longer appears in the article. Pine(talk) 07:40, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose Bottom left of picture has multiple cracks and white spots (those need to get fixed), and I don't see as how this picture will contribute any encyclopedic value to the article, as it already has 20+ pictures, and (lastly), the picture isn't even in the article anymore.
