An incredibly clear animation showing the workings of the Geneva drive found in movie projectors.

  • Nominate and support. One of the best illustrations to an article I've seen - Gobeirne 18:35, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Just a few days ago I was just wondering how the filmtransport works. Thanks! :-) And a great illustration too. Sources available? --Dschwen 19:28, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I obviously support the new version, just chuck the old one, who would want to keep it? --Dschwen 17:37, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support (the new version). Woderfully illustrative. I can overlook the small rendering flaws... I also added it to Intermittent movement, an article I've worked on. --Janke | Talk 21:18, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support That fuzz at the bottom of the green disk bothers me, but I think this image is quite informative and nicely done. ~MDD4696 22:22, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Very understandable. enochlau (talk) 23:21, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Clear illustration of mechanism, and fun to watch. BillC 00:06, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Crisp, clear, and just plain interesting. Alr 00:14, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks for the nomination, and the kind words of support. This was done in 3D Studio Max, and I still have all the files kicking around, I think; anyone wanting to play with them can drop me a PM. I'll also try to clear up the rendering errors if I get a chance. Thanks again! Mike1024 (t/c) 00:27, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Mike1024.. added a wikilink to 3D Studio Max to your comment.. I'm assuming you contributed heavily to the creation of the page? It's well done. drumguy8800 - speak? 03:03, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support That's very clear.. I'm not sure but if there's an option to use anisotropic filtering on the 3D Studio Max program, maybe using that would clear up whatever people have a problem with..? I personally think it looks perfect the way it is. It's saved off as a gif and it's as clear as a Flash animation.. complaining is just being way too nitpicky. drumguy8800 - speak? 03:00, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. My only objection to this picture is that part of the green dial (the part that grabs the red one) disappears for part of the rotation. -JPM 03:29, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • ( + ) Support Mesmerizing --Fir0002 05:06, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support -- TomStar81 05:33, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. I really like the addition of animation to wikipedia articles. It doesn't have to be particularly pretty to be functional. Would prefer rendering errors to be fixed but would definitely support it as-is too. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 05:38, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • He he. Support. Very illustrative and strangely amusing as well (or is it just me?). Raven4x4x 06:04, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • I support the second version more. It fixes those little problems. Raven4x4x 07:26, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support- Makes me happy just watching.--Urthogie 10:28, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support but could it be just a little faster? Renata 13:52, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Fun to watch. Please don't make it any faster - Adrian Pingstone 16:50, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, keep at this speed.--Urthogie 17:00, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support excellent --Kessa Ligerro 18:30, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • User:Vanderdecken/Support Mesmerising, very clear. Probably sound a little stupid of me, but I'd always wondered how they did that. Well now I know. Well done. —Vanderdecken∴∫ξφ 18:40, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment Doesn't sound stupid at all. I always just assumed that the movement was continuous. ~MDD4696 02:41, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Very clear and well illustrated.--Ali K 09:37, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support very good idea and nice performance Eteru 15:09, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I've just applied some of the changes suggested here and fixed the faults that were annoying me in the past... the new version is the lower of the two shown. Mike1024 (t/c) 17:29, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support very good explanation of the mechanism - can replace a lot of words --Mikeo 23:08, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I know the support above is overwhelming, but I simply just had to log in just to add my support. Very, very nice! And Wikipedia needs more animations! I love them! I love, love, love them! --Dna-Dennis talk - contribs 16:06, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
