I recently added images of examples of the two paper colours for Germany P#91. As this is the first time I've used this feature, I was surprised at how low down the page they occur, after “Get this banknote” and “View sale offers”. Can I suggest that this feature be moved to immediately after the year lines so that they can be seen in conjunction with them? I had expected these images to be incorporated into the year lines, since that would actually allow viewers to see how different they are.

They are shown on the year lines.

Banknote museum pictures should be used as a last ditch effort, due to their often low quality.

When I hover over the picture icons I would not see a difference with these two overexposed examples.

I guess when ceh2019's pictures get approved, those BNM examples can be removed

No new swaps for the moment, still too many half-ongoing swaps to clean up!

I can.

Good for you, I am sure 9 out of 10 older people and people with cheaper monitors would disagree with you.

I can see the difference also.

 

 

Still, I strongly agree with Banknote Museum pictures being used as a last resort. I replace them wherever I have an opportunity to obtain a different image. In some cases the colour of BNM images is quite inaccurate due to overuse of brightening filters.

 

Regarding the positioning, 'View sale offers' is an advertisement which possibly generates income for numista which in turn helps to keep it a free use resource - very necessary to have it located prominently, imo.

OK, so what's lacking in prominence is the tiny camera icon. Hover over that and the example image appears.

I've tried photographing these notes myself under identical conditions to show the difference in paper colour more clearly. The problem is that when the images are seen in isolation (as they are in the year lines), the green paper is not very obvious. BNM's images may lack detail, but they're there to show the colour. Nevertheless, I'll keep trying.

Is the Katz picture artificially colorful? Because their the green is very obvious.

I'd say the real colour is somewhere between the images from BNM and Katz. As soon as you see the two notes alongside each other, the difference is obvious.
