 * Support. Beautiful historic work of art and illustrates an article.-- Dakota  ~  °  07:59, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose We should get a better scan than this for FP. It looks like it is scanned from a book, with raster aliasing, and a light bar in front of GW's head that might be the white space between two pics on the other side of the page, also, a bit small - it is just under the "magic 1000" - but here, I think details are so important that it needs to be at least 1600 or even 2000.--Janke | Talk 08:43, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose for version 2 - only a tad larger, much better general quality, but it is less sharp. Can we do even better? --Janke | Talk 07:14, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * ’Fraid not. This was the largest size I could find on the net. TomStar81 22:35, 19 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose per above Anchorage 12:19, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I found a larger version, but I am not sure about the copyright status for it. In any case it has been uploaded as version 2. —This unsigned comment was added by TomStar81 (talk • contribs) 20:52, 18 March 2006.
 * The copyright status for an identical image of higher resolution will be the same. &#126;MDD4696 05:40, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Version 2 has been heavily edited and looks very queer.--ragesoss 07:56, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol oppose vote.png|15px]] Oppose Agree with ragesoss. Looks like a good painting but image quality is letting it down. --Fir0002 style="color:#C6CACC; background:#F8FCFF">www 23:12, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Support origional A great painting. And it has history because the Deleware river rarely freezes today like it did back then because of the effects of the Little ice age. If it becomes featured picture just make sure the thumbnail displayed on the front page is bigger than it's size on this page. BWF89 16:03, 27 March 2006 UTC
