Graphist opinion(s):

I started playing with this image when I noticed something. The tadpole appears to get smaller as it matures. Shouldn't the body stay the same size (or even get larger) with each successive image? I understand it shows the progression, but especially combined with the scale bar, is it not inaccurate and/or misleading? – JBarta (talk) 09:17, 7 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

When it undergoes metamorphosis its tissues are rearranged and the tail absorbed so I think the photographs are not misleading. However, I no longer need your help as another editor has produced a horizontal series as part of the FAC and I have just uploaded this to Commons here. I am sorry if I have wasted your time.

I note that the caption to this image at 2012 Catalan independence demonstration reads 'One of the green cards handed out to attendees'. But the photograph is clearly of a page from a magazine - not a card at all. I hope the reason for your request to trim the edges is not that you hope to pass this off as a genuine picture of the card! That would be a little unethical, wouldn't it?
