  • Reluctant oppose excellent ev, short on technicals. The valued picture program might be the place for this. DurovaCharge! 08:17, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question Bundesarchiv says resolution is 2838x3825. Why is the upload a smaller res? Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 15:55, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Because they only gave us low-res files 800px on the longest side. See commons:Commons:Bundesarchiv.--ragesoss (talk) 17:02, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • Bundesarchiv has decided to retain full copyright on the larger resolution versions. I've been trying to coax that door open a little wider; did a restoration on a slightly larger portrait of Adenauer. Which unfortunately can't be nominated here for licensing reasons.

  • Okay, then I'll have to oppose on formality reasons. There's no doubt that it's retained more detail in downsizing than a lot of less generously jpegged FPs do, but there you go. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 02:21, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
