 * Comment I find the shadows to be more distracting than adding value.  Jujutacular  talk 04:01, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, have reduced and softened the shadows so that it's less distracting. - S Masters (talk) 07:40, 22 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Support edit I love dragonfruit! Used to eat them in Singapore. The striking appearance of the fruit and the fact that it is relatively unknown in non-tropical areas makes this an excellent featured picture in my opinion. Purpy Pupple (talk) 04:50, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment I think the margin should be the same on both sides. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 07:02, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, have fixed this so that they are visually balanced. - S Masters (talk) 07:40, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Support edit A lot less work to get things right in camera re: shadows though! Noodle snacks (talk) 23:00, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose Sorry, but I hate the shadows in both. Natural shadows or no shadows, in my book. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 19:49, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, agreed. I think I'd prefer it without the "shadows". J Milburn (talk) 19:58, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I was wondering how would the image look like with a black background? Nergaal (talk) 21:52, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I tried the black background and it doesn't work at all. I guess that's why all the current FPs use a white background. – S Masters (talk) 08:42, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
