 * Support as nominator --J Milburn (talk) 18:40, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Weak Oppose I hope you'll forgive me, but I actually find the lighting harsh, and Yankovic just looks weird and too demonic to be funny. I prefer his normal, relaxed self. His face is oddly soft (maybe it's just me). – Kerαu noςco pia ◁ gala xies 22:26, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Support Because Yankovic just looks weird. Cowtowner (talk) 01:23, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Support I like his facial expression and appears apt for the genre of his songs --BNK(talk) 02:15, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Strong Support. It's excellently captured. It falls just slightly short of the resolution requirements but it's tack-sharp. You could upsize it to the requirements and still be happy with the quality. It shows Weird Al in a typical 'in character' pose. I think there'd be room for a second FP of him a normal, relaxed, 'out of character' pose. &#208;iliff    &#171;&#187;  (Talk)  09:42, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I wasn't around for the minimum size requirement discussion, and I think in this case, the image should not be enlarged—I know you're only suggesting it as an unneeded option—but that's why I didn't consider it as part of my vote above, it just wouldn't seem right. The image is quite large for being a free professional shot of a celebrity who took time out of his day to be photographed on a lit set/stage. Usually I'd be the first in line to support a photograph of him, I have most of his CDs, but I surprised myself when I found I wasn't overly impressed by the photograph. My loss, no one else's! – Kerαu noςco pia ◁ gala xies 17:03, 18 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Support It's a bit undersize, but as Diliff says... Adam Cuerden (talk) 18:23, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
