message: Hi - I replaced the old picture with what I thought was a better picture of Greg Pak. It's more recent, reflects his current appearance (without a beard), and presents an angled profile view rather than a front-on mugshot, which I find to be better for determining what people look like (it may be a bit dark but that can be improved if people think so - I find it depends on the monitor I'm viewing it on). It was reverted with a very nasty message, so I thought I would just see how other people with a more vested interest in this page felt...

text: Thanks for your response. I think what I find most unsettling is your apparent arrogance in reverting the kind of edit you say you make frequently. Given the reaction to the photo by everyone else, it is acceptable if you still prefer the old photo better. I recognize that we have different aesthetic tastes in that regard. However, to revert it and also use objective language in the edit is a bit harsh. It doesn't make it seem like you didn't AGF, I think it is fair to say that you actually did not AGF, although I'm still not sure why. Anyway there isn't much point in having this discussion, as long as you realize that your opinion is not always the majority belief, and that you should consider things like that in the future - and consider that even if you disagree with someone, they are just as likely to be thinking that they were doing the right thing, and others might agree. (and you're right, I shouldn't have called it a mug shot, as it isn't literally - but as you saw from the consensus, many people _do_ prefer angled shots to front-on shots. They tend to more accurately depict a person's features) PermanentVacay (talk) 22:36, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
