Shows the really nice comparison between an old brick and a sample of aerogel, which looks like a diffuse gas, but is indeed the world's lowest-density solid. Used currently in Aerogel. --Bricktop 23:50, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Nominate and support (now the third version). Thanks for improving the pic! --Bricktop 23:50, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Another of the many images I was thinking about nominating at some point in time. I might clean up some specks and adjust the balances later. --brian0918™ 00:07, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Some cleanup sure would be usefull on this image! --Bricktop 00:16, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I would also like to see a higher resolution. Then I could come back and support. Until then, neutral. (A vote that really doesn't mean a thing, does it?) Jonas Olson 06:31, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- Change my vote to support third version. If its alright with everyone else I'd even suggest removing my version. --Fir0002 11:11, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Support Great picture! - Adrian Pingstone 07:56, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Here's my obligatory version. I used the original uncompressed TIFF, and tried to clean it up so that the edges on the brick remained sharp.
- Support third version. --brian0918™ 09:39, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Support third version. Enochlau 10:53, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Support Now =this= is cool. Denni☯ 02:18, 2005 Apr 20 (UTC)
- Support Graphic, interesting and I learnt something. -- Solipsist 16:00, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose. Too dark, and the lighting is fake. The whole image looks like it's trying too hard to be dramatic. - Pioneer-12 19:03, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- That's usually how good photographs are made. --brian0918™ 19:11, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Good photographs are made in many ways--setups are just one way. Fakeness is not a virtue. A photograph can be an obvious setup but not appear "fake".... the chosen elements can be absurd, and the arrangment ridiculous, but it will appear as an honest expression of a desire to communicate a message through visual means. This just looks like a phony (see Catcher in the Rye), done to impress others for PR purposes. Furthermore, it is not particularly attractive or clever. Thumbs down. - Pioneer-12 22:51, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
