  • Comment from a member of WIkipProject Gastropods: It's a nice shell and in good condition. One problem is that the black background makes it hard to see where the black spines end. I might suggest a different color background. Invertzoo (talk) 22:59, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment from a member of WIkipProject Gastropods: Looks good, but I have a suggestion. Both shell views are somewhat misaligned vertically. Try following this featured picture's example [1]. Black background is OK for me, it's the usual background for colored plates in scientific papers... You could try grey or navy blue too. Daniel Cavallari (talk) 18:30, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
