 * Comment For an image like this, the size needs to be much bigger in my opinion. Spencer  T♦C 01:14, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your comment, but from what I can tell it still meets the minimum size. Please let me know if I'm mistaken. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  01:18, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * That's just a guideline--and a minimum--and I think the point is that on an image of this type we should have higher resolution. gren グレン 02:13, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that's what I mean...sorry for not clarifying. Spencer  T♦C 02:14, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose, I'd like to see mores specific referencing on the image page such as all of the lat/longitudes plotted and for each hurricane with their specific references rather than just a link to the site. The info is public domain so that should be no problem.  Images should be as clearly sourced as articles. gren グレン 02:13, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose Does not indicate which track goes with which hurricane, making it essentially meaningless for the intended purpose. If the name and year were added, it would be a lot more encyclopædic. Shoemaker&#39;s Holiday (talk) 02:33, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Shoemaker . Weak Oppose The font color in both is hard to read against the land. Maybe a thicker font would help? Clegs (talk) 03:25, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright, check out edit 1, I added storm names and years to the image. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  02:01, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment - Ioke's is missing parenthesis for its year, also you may want to change the text color as the current one blends in with the coloring of the Rocky Mts. on the satellite imagery. Hello32020 (talk) 02:07, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Ooh, good point. I'll get on that tomorrow morning... Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone
 * Comment Might support if labels are consistent, and contrast against background (rightmost three are bad). Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 14:10, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Correction and new colors added. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  15:06, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Labels: Poor font and placement (should show which end is the start); neither color contrasts well with the land. Low resolution: IMO it should be at least 2 times bigger in both directions. No Latitude/Longitude lines on the image: In particular, where are the dateline, 140E and the equator, the boundaries of the basin? The caption is not useful. Would be more valuable if it was on a plain map, not a satellite image - the background distracts from the important info.--CycloneAlley (talk) 15:13, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Support - It's much better, but you should probably implement at least some of the suggestions the other users have stated. Hello32020 (talk) 15:20, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose, captions are illegible at thumbnail resolutions, and the text color causes too much contrast with the blue background, which hurts eyes. Tito xd (?!? - cool stuff) 00:49, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose. I like the concept but not the execution: the labels are useless at thumb and not very attractive at full size, and the map element is pretty basic, without much informational content (per CycloneAlley). Pstuart84 Talk 15:32, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
