  • This is gonna sound ridiculous, but there's a little twig thing in the lower top left- could that be gotten rid of? J Milburn (talk) 11:38, 19 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • My PS is not working at the moment. If anyone would like to put up an edit over the original, it's fine with me. --Muhammad(talk) 12:27, 19 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support either. Don't think the twig really needed to be cloned out, but cloning it didn't have any real effect on the EV, unlike some landscape images. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 12:33, 23 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
