Looks round but there seems to be some stuff extending to the right.
Thin, faint #dustlane.

I classified this last month. Got it again today. Bug?
The boxy (?) bulge seems disturbed.
#disturbed. Of the two objects seen within the arms, the white is a star (SkyServer). Possible interaction with the dusty edge-on on right.
#disturbed. Off-centre nucleus.
New Science discussion created. Please post your comments there.
Is the orange object an transient, since it is not visible in all images? Or is it just due to differences in observing frequencies?

UGC 8253
#bar is clear but the arms seem to be broken.
z=0.012499. Perhaps interacting with the small galaxy (z=0.016555) near the leftmost arm?
I classified the galaxy but the SkyServer points to the round orange object next to the nucleus of the galaxy and labels it also a galaxy.
No discernible bar or spiral structure but a pair of bright condensations seen. Ansae? If yes, does it imply a bar?
Faint #bar. Even fainter arms starting from bright clumps at the ends of the bar (ansae?). #disturbed.
@Ghost_Sheep_SWR: Thanks for adding this to the Hubble data opportunity thread. Hope Hubble or some other large telescope is turned to this.

Short arms or something else?
#tidal debris.
The tip of the upper arm seems to be breaking up. There is an elliptical companion in that direction.
Thick #bar. Thin #disturbed #starforming arms.
#disturbed lower arm. Possible interaction with an edge-on neighbour.
However, there is a larger companion off the north edge.
A faint object seen above the central galaxy. Not sure if they are physically close. No z given for the fainter galaxy in SDSS and NED.

This group is bigger; there are more galaxies above with similar z values.
NGC 7767 (z=0.026728 ) : the partially visible galaxy at the bottom.
NGC 7765 (z=0.025514) : the barred spiral. NGC 7768 (z=0.027322) : the big elliptical. NGC 7766 (z=0.027159) : the edge-on lower left.
With z=0.026495, seems to be part of a group of galaxies.

What happened to this image?
I classified this yesterday and got this again today. Can images be repeated like this? Bug?
Boxy, x-shaped bulge.
A #merger perhaps.
Slightly bluish at the lower end. Perhaps star-forming.
#disturbed. Either the dust lane distorted or the galaxy itself is.
Nucleus is large but is off-centre. The smaller bright object is also classified as a galaxy by SDSS.
Seems like a ZOAG, from its location in DECaLS.

Nice juxtaposition. Looks similar to the "galaxified" sentences of http://writing.galaxyzoo.org/
Two spiral arms. Maybe a bar, based on the starting positions the arms. An outer ring or are they arms too?
The brown streak is not in the SDSS image. Perhaps an artifact?
#disturbed #merger

Is the bulge brighter than in other galaxies? The inner parts of the spiral arms are almost invisible.
Two bright objects on either side of the main galaxy. Lens?
Beautiful.
The nucleus seems to be off-center.
Irregular galaxy.
Hint of a trailing arm. Perhaps because of interaction with the neighbor (z values are 0.009 and 0.078).
Thick #dustlane.
Missed it, probably because it does not have the reddish-orange hue that most Illustris images have. Well done Illustris!!! 😃
The right half is dimmer which gives this galaxy a truncated look.
Thick bar with two tightly wound spiral arms?
Seems #disturbed. Probably a companion of UGC 3136 (the larger galaxy at the top of the image).
Nice simulation by Illustris.

#disturbed spiral
Does the light distribution hint at two tight spiral arms? To me it does not look like an elliptical distribution.
Possible double ring.
Long, thin bar. No sign of arms.

zorrobis, the bright object is probably a star.
There seems to be a bright patch just below this galaxy. Artefact? Tidal debris?
The part between the center and the lower end is thinner. The part above the center is shorter. Perhaps a spiral with loose arms.

The SDSS image points to the small galaxy in the middle. Looks like we have to classify that an not the large irregular.
