 * Support per nom - ridiculously high rez with no glaring flaws. Two questions: 1, is the subject still alive and objects to her likeness displayed here and 2, are such outfits worn today when a color image could be taken? The answers are probably both no, but I just thought I should check.--HereToHelp (talk to me) 13:43, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The answer to both 1 and 2 is very unlikely. Durova Charge! 17:42, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Support; since the word 'ridiculous' has already been used, I am forced to say this has a ludicrous amount of detail. --Golbez (talk) 23:14, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
