Any use for this image? It is the same boat, Bainbridge Island, before retirement. BatteryIncluded (talk) 05:38, 10 December 2017 (UTC)
Peculiar image
[edit]Something just doesn't seem right with File:MVSharpie.jpg. SSCS issued a press release with an image of the vessel that is markedly different to MVSharpie.jpg.[1] MVSharpie.jpg is missing the logo on the superstructure and the hull is painted completely differently. Even the font used for "SHARPIE" is different. Why? --AussieLegend (✉) 11:10, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
- @AussieLegend: Because, as the file description at Commons ("Design for the M/V Sharpie") suggests, it is a mock-up created in Photoshop or similar. The original photo shows the same ship in 2008 [2]. I'm going to file a deletion request at Commons, as it is both misleading and a potential copyright violation. --El Grafo (talk) 08:18, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
