Info - Difficult to be more enc than this. I hope that it will not be declined by some irrelevant technical details like this one. I'm adding a possible alternative, but really prefer the original. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 12:29, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- An image not being in focus is an irrelevant technical detail now? --Dschwen 14:12, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - Yes, when the flaw is minimal and does not affect the illustration purpose. Anyway the alternative didn't have such problem -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 14:42, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Why not nominate this as a set? Lumping it together into a single image does not make it more usefull, but rather less useful. --Dschwen 14:12, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I disagree. It is more useful for illustration purposes if the images are kept together imo. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 14:39, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - You can always put them together using wiki markup, however you cannot re-layout them once they are lumped into one image. --Dschwen 16:04, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    - Yes, I can. They are all available as separate pictures. Just give me some time to refer to it in the image file. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 16:09, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      - Done -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 19:52, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      - Ok, then please provide a vertically stacked series, a picture with the Flower on the bottom and the two other pictures on top, one with the flower on top and the two others on the bottom, one with the flower on the right and the two others vertically stacked on the left. Thanks. --Dschwen 16:20, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
        Sorry, what does that achieve? Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 16:31, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
        The flexibility that separate images would have. ;-) --Dschwen 16:57, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
        yes master, anything you say ;-) -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 17:05, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
