Featured picture candidates/File:CG Heart.gif Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:CG Heart.gif

• Category: Commons:Featured pictures/Non-photographic media/Computer-generated
•  Info created and uploaded by DrJanaOfficial - nominated by Buffaboy -- Buffaboy (talk) 07:32, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
•  Support When I first came across this animation, I had to take a look at it here on Commons. I was surprised at the level of detail put into the mechanics of the heart's motion. I can't say I've ever seen an animation of this caliber before. It illustrates the mechanics very well and complements the articles it is displayed on -- Buffaboy (talk) 07:32, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
•  Question - Doesn't the minimum of 2 MP also apply to animated gifs? I suspect it does, and in that case, this wouldn't be eligible for FP consideration, but in either case, this could be an interesting Valued Image nominee. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:53, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
  • I wondered the same when I initially read the guidelines. It said animations aren't included, which I somewhat assumed this was, but I am not sure. Nevertheless, if it is up to par, the creator apparently has a higher resolution copy here, but it has technical issues. –Buffaboy (talk) 08:00, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

• Most of the Commons:Featured pictures/Animated GIFs are well below 2MP due to the format. A large GIF can lose a lot of sharpness when viewed in thumb or smaller size. Take a look at this in smaller size than full and you'll probably see the distortions. --cart-Talk 09:56, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

•  Support I am not sure if they accept animated gif for FP, but if they do I'll be glad to see this one as an Featured Picture for sure. -- DrJanaOfficial (talk) 09:24, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
•  Support I think that the educational value of this is far better that our current FP GIF of heart motion since it is easier for a layman to understand the motion. I also know that there are those who would like to see GIFs gone in favor of videos, but in this case it works well since the heart does its beating motion in a cycle and we don't have to press play each time to see it beat. --cart-Talk 10:06, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
