First of all, thanks, Raul, for putting this article on the main page on the date I requested. But I think it will be better if you change the image from Paris 2012 to one of London 2012; after all, it was the winning city, but mostly I'm asking you this because I can already see tomorrow loads of edits (voluntary vandalism or not) bashing/criticizing using a losing bid-related photo rather than one of London.

I hope you understand my suggestion. Parutakupiu ^{talk || contribs}

Actually, I wanted to use one of the losing bids on purpose to emphasize the fact that the article is about the 2012 Olympic bids and not the 2012 Olympics themselves. Raul654 19:42, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Quick reply! (sorry I reposted on your talk page) Well, I understand your thinking. Really, I do. But do you think the increased amount of people that will see it will take that lightly? Especially Londoners or British people. Perhaps then an image from a not-so-rival bid? Parutakupiu ^{talk || contribs} 19:45, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

I think you are worrying too much. I don't think it'll phase people all that much. Also, the only free British image is of the train, and that's not exactly the greatest image in the world. Raul654 19:59, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

OK, I'll trust your word. Thank you, Raul. Parutakupiu ^{talk || contribs} 20:43, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
