  • Weak oppose on details, essentially. Firstly I think there could be more indication in the image that this is a progression from the top left downwards (would adding an undivided triangle help? I think so). The fact that the image is a PNG would, I think, be manageable if everything else was perfect, but I do find the dot-matrix type colouring of the triangles off, and, unless it's n optical illusion, doesn't the colouring get darker (the last doesn't appear to have dots at all)? I think also while I understand the arrangement is to help save space, as is the growing size of the triangle, I think the latter is a false economy and arranging them in a square (m.m. if a fifth is added) would be better - keep some lines at least.

  • Comment. The anti-aliasing of the lines seems poor. Also, some of the interior lines very slightly protrude outside the bounding triangles. For normal purposes these are very fussy criticisms, but for a featured picture maybe not. 86.161.61.73 (talk) 12:38, 21 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
