 * The diamond/carpet pythons are known for their patterns, so I think an image showing the whole body would be more appropriate. It may be good enough for the forked tongue article, though. &mdash; BRIAN 0918 &bull; 2008-02-15 14:03Z
 * Yes, I agree, that's why I didn't say it was particularly informative for the Morelia spilota article (though that article is for the entire species, not the subspecies), but more as an eye-catching photo to bring people in. It is so hard to get a good photo of a 2m long snake that has good detail and is aesthetically pleasing. -liquidGhoul (talk) 14:14, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Support scale detail is great at full rez, and it's a decent illustration of forked tongue. de Bivort 17:46, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Support - meets all the criteria.--Svetovid (talk) 10:24, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Support good enough. —αἰτίας •'discussion'• 11:54, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose Poor focus, blurry, and poor lighting especially in the eyes, where the flash is too harsh. Also, it doesn't have the 'wow factor' that an FP should have. Juliancolton (Talk) 15:12, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Support Wow, the size is very large & the detail able to be seen in the scales in great.  нмŵוτн τ  02:17, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
