 * Oppose too big, can't load. Nice that it has a tile load but it is to complicated for feature status in my opinion. If it was smaller and more usable for the average reader I would be all over supporting this. I love this painting.--Amadscientist (talk) 06:31, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Just a note to add that the tile load recieved a norton warning on my computer.--Amadscientist (talk) 06:33, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
 * It loaded fine on my PC. Although it took a damn long time. I would upload a small version if needed. let me prepare myself to do it :) — ΛΧΣ  21  06:54, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
 * On the image page, there is a link (in a pink box) to the "large image viewer" that lets you view such big images without downloading the whole thing. Colin°Talk 07:58, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
 * We would NEVER want to promote a smaller version. HUGE images are better. As pointed out above there's tools to help people view it in a browser, or you can actually save it to your computer and load in Photoshop or similar for inspection, plus there's the links under the image for smaller versions as well. Big is good. Plus "to big" isn't a valid reason to oppose, so I'd recommend retracting the oppose. — raeky  t  15:25, 10 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Support, perhaps one of the most recognizable Bruegel's paintings (and of Babel tower as well). Google Art digitalizations are almost always no-brainers. Brandmeistertalk  12:13, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
