Parameter correlations from Figure  2 showing the results of the photometric decomposition of VCC 2048. Large green triangles show the total parameters measured by F2006 for the disk and envelope together. Our corresponding measurement for the whole galaxy agrees with F2006; it is shown by the green filled circle with the light green center. Our points are connected by straight lines to the envelope parameters (dark green filled squares) and the disk parameters (dark green crosses).
