Death of a star, birth of a white dwarf?

How many of us have had this image come up to classify?
How many times do they reprocess an image?

This is definitely a galaxy : NGC 4344. The blue clumps that form a ring are star forming regions in this galaxy.

As for the number of times an image is seen : In GZ1 every image was looked at by at least 50 people (if not more), if I remember correctly.
