[edit] Nymphenburg Palace

Original - The front view of the Nymphenburg Palace in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. This Baroque palace served as a summer residence for the rulers of Bavaria. Today, it is open to the public, but also continues to be a home and chancery for the head of the house of Wittelsbach, currently HRH Franz, Duke of Bavaria.

Edit 1 - Crop.

Edit 2 - Fixed tilt and brightened. (Crassic)

Edit 3 - Higher quality of edit 2. (Crassic)

  • Yes, I'd appreciate if someone did that. Unfortunately, I don't own the software to do it myself. NauticaShades 21:32, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
    • I'll do it myself tomorrow if I get time. Unless someone else wants to do it, I'll try to edit and have it up tomorrow afternoon. crassic!^[talk] 00:14, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

• Support Edit 2 Wow, the thumbnail really doesn't do it justice. faithless (^speak) 09:39, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
• Support edit 2 Good job, very nice image. Spencer^T♦C 03:09, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Umm, this image is used only a gallery on Nymphenburg Palace, which would mean it doesn't really add value to the article. (I'm quite surprised everyone missed this.) Please find a better home for it. MER-C 11:54, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

• In my opinion, it is a far better image of the palace than any of the others in the article. I'm going to be bold and feature it more prominently. NauticaShades 20:39, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

• I also added it to a gallery of historical buildings of Bavaria. I doesn't add a lot of value to that article, but the palace should be mentioned there anyway. NauticaShades 20:56, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

• Comment Edit 2 has very bad compression artefacts in the sky. Original has some weird gradations as well (scroll from left to right at full res and look at the sky change) --118.138.220.97 (talk) 23:20, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

• Would you like me to save edit 2 at a higher quality? crassic!^[talk] 02:27, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

• I think you should save it with the same quality as that of the original. FPs have to be as good as possible. Muhammad(talk) 12:40, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

• Alright. I'll have it up by midnight (CST), at least. crassic!^[talk] 20:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
• Newer version is up... crassic!^[talk] 02:06, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

• Support (preference for edit 3) great image, meets all the criteria. 20:30, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
