Graphist opinion(s):Image's request under progression Request taken by Centpacrr (talk) 11:24, 24 June 2014 (UTC). Cropped and adjusted gamma as requested. Not sure if this is what you wanted; if not feel free to restore original. Centpacrr (talk) 12:18, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

I don't know exactly what gamma is, the distortion I was talking about is the bowed shape of the image, probably from being photocopied, or photographed right out of a book.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 13:31, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

@Kintetsubuffalo: gamma is the the lightness (not the same as brightness) of an image. I can give you a better explanation if you want, later. I wasn't sure if Centpacrr had fixed the distortion, so I made a new version of it starting from the original, where I adjusted gamma, brightness, and removed the distortion before cropping it. If either of you wants to revert me, go right ahead. I apologize if I offended you, Centpacrr, for jumping in and redoing it. No offense (or criticism) was intended. MjolnirPants Tell me all about it. 15:02, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

It doesn't really matter to me as it was unclear to me what Kintetsubuffalo wanted. Whatever version he likes is fine with me. Centpacrr (talk) 15:53, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
