Yes, that's true. I will upload an uncaptioned version to Commons. Unfortunately, the original is a rather sloppy Photoshop composition, not an SVG, so I can't upload it. However, I specifically didn't use any fancy backgrounds or gradients because you can just take the eraser or a black pen-tool and

The use of text labels in a diagram such as this is unavoidable, but that still leaves problems changing it for use in other languages. I'm assuming uploading a source document (like an SVG) isn't possible? I'll support if you upload an alternate version to commons (linked from the image page of the

Unfortunately, I don't have the time to fix this right now. I just took a picture from the article, inverted it, scaled it up and put it in there. I'd have to redo that part of the drawing... Please feel free to go ahead and do it yourself, though, if you can. I'd really appreciate it. At least, it's

the new edit. One little tweak would make it even better: The legend under zig-zag is almost touching the armchair version. A little more space, if you please... (Also, isn't it common practise to have the nearer parts red, the parts further away blue, to give a more intuitive feeling of depth? Just
102:
You are right, I was a bit quick in nominating this... A created a new picture that probably has more encyclpedic value. As an alternative to the new one, one could also crop it to just the two tubes. What do you think? Regarding coloring and atom size: Physical accuracy sometimes has to take the
414:
While most of the text labels are nicely antialiased, those in the diagram in the top left look strange when viewed full-size. It looks either like an artifact of interpolated scaling or the application of a filter (perhaps a blur) post text rendering. It would be nice if this could be fixed.
268:
I don't think there's a way to show it graphically without ruining the picture, and explaining it thoroughly would be a bad idea as you said, but it might be important to note somewhere (it can be a very small note) that they are actually benzene and not cyclohexane, for encyclopedic value. -
92:
I'm not too thrilled. Whats the encyclopedic value? What do the colors mean? Are atomic radii physically motivated? The interesting thing about carbon nanotubes is the roll-up vector and how it influences the properties. It is missing in the image caption. What type of NT are we looking at?
197:
OK, I shuffled things around a bit, everything is more evenly spaced now. About the coloring: To be honest, I really don't know what's customary, I have close to no experience with modeling molecules... I cannot really remember why I put the blue end first :-)
164:
I'd like to have a zig-zag one too, but unfortunately I have been unable to find the data (in any format, pdbh ,ib, xyz, whatever) of a zig-zag one and frankly don't have the energy and knowledge to build one from the ground up myself. I'll keep
475:. I don't like the black background; it should be white instead. And even if you like the black, why is there a transparent bar on the left side? Finally, the image is not at the Commons, so it is less useful to other Wikimedia projects. 258:
Any ideas on how I might work that in? I don't want to obscure the very basic information what nanotubes are all about by adding stuff that 98% of readers won't even attempt to understand. An unobstrusive, clear way would be nice, though.
248:... but reluctantly. I wish this could show, or at least have a caption about how they all have to be benzene and sp2 hybridized. Right now it just seems to be a lot of cyclohexanes, which would be impossible because of the curvature. - 144:
I like the new one, but could you add it to the article and you might want to get rid of the text (replace it with a zig-zag one?) and put the text in the article caption and on the Image page. Did that make any sense?
103:
back seat. If you make nanotubes in one color and with bigger atoms, you can't see the structure at all. "Rainbow" like coloring is more or less the only way to really make the structure easy to understand, IMO.
427:
Damn, I was hoping I could still slip that change in without anybody noticing :-) I have the original of the picture on a different PC, but will correct that before voting ends.
544: 169:
Nevermind, I just found the data I needed. I also added small line-drawing schematics to make the structure more obvious. I also added it to the article.
