Formation and evolution of the solar system

Why you remove the artificial structure of Earth from the article and end of the planet Earth. Then why we have the image on the Earth?--Freewayguy (Comm 90) 00:31, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

Because the image is awful? -- SamSim (talk) 18:17, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

Earth

What about the artist conception of artifical Earth pic, should it be remove from the article as well? If you did it to Formation and evolution of the solar system that tells me I should do it to Earth article too. --Freewayguy (Comm 90) 03:39, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

I don't know what image you're talking about. SamSim (talk) 13:29, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Im talking about the pict of Earth surface when sun is 100 times current diameter when in about 5 to 6 billion years on Earth article. --Freewayguy (Comm 90) 20:50, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Oh right, you're still talking about the same image. Well, yes, the image is still awful and should be removed from any pages it appears on. The structures are pixellated, they don't look like they could survive even hundreds of years, let alone billions, and they don't even have shadows! -- SamSim (talk) 22:29, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
