;Reason:I feel that this image shows how pin tumbler locks in a very easy-to-understand way. I am proposing these images as a {{tl|FeaturedPictureSet}}.

* '''Support as nominator''' --[[User:Pbroks13|--Pbroks13]][[User talk:Pbroks13|talk?]] 08:47, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Support'''. Fairly easy to understand, particularly with the captions. A good diagram set and very informative. [[User:Diliff|Diliff]] | [[User talk:Diliff|(Talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Diliff|(Contribs)]] 12:41, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Support''' Excellent illustration of the concept. [[User:Durova|Durova]]''[[User talk:Durova|Charge!]]'' 18:18, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Support''' though I would prefer a rasterized format over unreliable svg. [[User:Debivort|de]] [[User Talk:Debivort|Bivort]] 18:39, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
**Why do you say that vector images are unreliable? [[User:Pbroks13|--Pbroks13]][[User talk:Pbroks13|talk?]] 19:13, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
*** SVG renders differently on different browsers and has font embedding isssues. Your images looked ok on my screen though. [[User:Debivort|de]] [[User Talk:Debivort|Bivort]] 23:48, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
****We just delisted raster versions, although now we can make higher-rez rasters.--[[User:HereToHelp|HereToHelp]] ([[User talk:HereToHelp|''talk to me'']]) 00:31, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
****That is very true, SVGs do tend to have font issues; however, they can be eliminated quite easily. Overall, SVG images are considered superior to (most) raster images. [[User:Pbroks13|--Pbroks13]][[User talk:Pbroks13|talk?]] 03:59, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
***** People always say this, and then it's easy to find person X with browser Y that can't see half the fonts, or they render ugly. Raster is easier, and I don't really care about *infinite* scalability. [[User:Debivort|de]] [[User Talk:Debivort|Bivort]] 17:08, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
******Yeah I agree with you, although it is also fairly trivial to render a raster image at at least 3000x2000ish, making it more than enough for just about any practical publishing use, a lot of people seem to create them at unreasonably low res. [[User:Diliff|Diliff]] | [[User talk:Diliff|(Talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Diliff|(Contribs)]] 18:42, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Support''' Very enc, informative SVGs.--[[User:HereToHelp|HereToHelp]] ([[User talk:HereToHelp|''talk to me'']]) 00:28, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Support''' Per above. [[User:Shoemaker's Holiday|Shoemaker's Holiday]] ([[User talk:Shoemaker's Holiday|talk]]) 17:51, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Support''' per Diliff. [[User:Fletcher|Fletcher]] ([[User talk:Fletcher|talk]]) 23:46, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Support''' impressive. '''[[User:Spencer|Spencer]]'''[[User talk:Spencer|T♦]][[Special:Contributions/Spencer|C]] 01:49, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Comment''' I think these images can be, and should be, made into 1 or 2 images. You would lose nothing on technical grounds, and the sole page they are used on looks cumbersome. [[User:Smooth0707|smooth0707]] ([[User_talk:Smooth0707|talk]]) 04:26, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Strong Support''' Hey! I understand the [[Pin tumbler lock]] now. [[User:Makeemlighter|Makeemlighter]] ([[User talk:Makeemlighter|talk]]) 04:44, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Support''' - Nice and clear -- [[User:Alvesgaspar|Alvesgaspar]] ([[User talk:Alvesgaspar|talk]]) 15:12, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Support''' But I'd like to see the colour of the incorrect key changed, IMHO there isn't enough contrast between it and and the rotated correct key directly below (since the lighting makes that dark grey) [[User:Noodle snacks|Noodle snacks]] ([[User talk:Noodle snacks|talk]]) 01:07, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Support''' - very descriptive images. [[User:Jauerback|Jauerback]][[User talk:Jauerback|dude?]]/[[Special:Contributions/Jauerback|dude.]] 14:42, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' this as a featured set (and the concept of featured sets), '''Support''' if it is merged into a single image. It's far more usable, both in articles and as a reference for users to download if it's just one image. Can always link from the image page to separate images. --[[User:Jjron|jjron]] ([[User talk:Jjron|talk]]) 13:52, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
**That could work, but that would mean that the caption would be incredibly long. And, I think that the descriptive captions really help with explaining the images. However, if you can figure a way to make it work with one image, please let me know. [[User:Pbroks13|--Pbroks13]][[User talk:Pbroks13|talk?]] 19:16, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
***Sure. Refer to my merged FP 'set' [[:File:Nectarine Fruit Development.jpg]] and its article usage. If images really belong in a set, this is how I believe they should be done - as one image. For yours, being as it's such a prominent part of that article, there's no reason the article itself couldn't contain a lengthy description which refers specifically to this image (aka the caption). --[[User:Jjron|jjron]] ([[User talk:Jjron|talk]]) 15:11, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
****But how could you combine the zoom sequences of the [[:File:Mandel zoom 00 mandelbrot set.jpg|Mandelbrot set|200px]] set? Mathematically, they are all part of the same subject, but I do not consider an such a large image (petapixels and gigabytes) a viable alternative. The community [[Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Mandelbrot set|felt]] that the standalone image was iffy, but the zoom sequence was superb.--[[User:HereToHelp|HereToHelp]] ([[User talk:HereToHelp|''talk to me'']]) 18:13, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
