[edit] Image Discussion

The thangka paintings from the Namgyal Institute and from Ladakh are beautiful works, but the photography is a bit off. Would anyone mind if I substituted these for this one Thangka painter "The great Jampa-la," one of the Dalai Lama's main artists Tibetanmuseum 08:27, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

I agree. The last photo (the thangka showing the six realms) is especially poor. I have no objection to your photo. In fact, I would be willing to submit photos of my own thangkas for inclusion on the site. In particular, I have a lovely nagtang of the mandala. --Bentonia School 16:19, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

The painting term "distemper" should be discussed in this article. Tibetanmuseum 08:27, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

The spelling "Tangka" is as legitimate as the spelling "Thangka," thus it should be added to the primary heading--Tibetanmuseum 22:45, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
