Article(s): Emblem of Algeria
Request: I created the second image and I'm not very satisfied with the result... Could someone please make it look more like the first image? And now something quite more difficult: Can some vectorize the images 3, 4, and 5? (image no. 4 is the same as no. 3, except that the background is white) Thanks a lot! -- escondites 11:44, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: But on Image:Algeria emb (1976).gif the license specifically says: vector versions are not permitted, and you are asking it be converted to scalable vector graphic ? This is just not logical. Jackaranga ( talk) 15:31, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for bringing the images in, Escondites, Redrawing the images in vector for would be allowed. [2] Sagredo ⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 20:07, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
and the one on the first emblem is????????? ????????? ??????????? ???????

Article(s): Battle of Kostiuchnówka
Request: I have translated a Polish map but it was deleted due to being a replaceable fair use. Leaving aside the fact that the original I scanned was published in a rare newspaper and there are no other maps of the battle I am aware, nor mentions of it (so an individual who would want to make a map would have to start from scratch, most likely), I have reuploaded it off-site here. I hope that somebody can use it to create a free variant. PS. Translation of few items I was unable to do on the old map: 'Polski Lasek' - Polish Forest, 'Polska Góra' - Polish Hill, 'Brygada' - Brigade. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 00:16, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: Piotr, would you object if the map view was from above rather than the side as it is now? Even rotating the image that way would make it our own, and closer to not having to worry about copyright. Let me know what you think. Krzyzszek Chris (??? • ????) ( talk) 04:18, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
I don't think so, let me ask Sagredo. Chris (??? • ????) ( talk) 02:14, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Article(s): PFLP
Request: This was, possibly, made into an SVG from this image which has a slightly messed up circle because of low resolution. I'd like anyone fluent in SVG editing to make a smooth circle of the same width so that it won't look so odd when scaled. Should be relatively easy. Thanks -- gren ??? 06:39, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Graphist opinion:
Article(s):Many, see image description page.
Request:Can this be vectorized, please? TIA. -- escondites 18:26, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: It would be a good idea to find a version of the coat from the Moroccan government, as the image from Vector Images could vary from the correct version. As happened in the Indonesian COA above. 168.103.39.226 ( talk) 00:41, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
Article: Cliffwood Beach, New Jersey
Request: Please create a map that portrays both the Aberdeen Township, Monmouth County and Old Bridge, Middlesex County portions of Cliffwood Beach, New Jersey. The current map only shows the Monmouth County portion. The area west of Whale Creek and east of Laurence Harbor, between Route 35 and the Raritan Bay, and bisected by Ocean Blvd, is Cliffwood Beach in Middlesex County. Even the small area south of Route 35 may be CB. -- Pat ( talk) 07:21, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Graphist opinion:
Articels: Capital punishment and other related pages
Request: The current SVG is unfortunately very garish looking (IMAO) in colors and state labels. Could a new map be created, possibly showing the method(s)? Currently, I'm thinking of the following designations:
I know its probably a real tall order to integrate all of the methods into a colored map; so I'm thinking it may be better and easier to have a map of the 1st 5, and then a map of the method(s) of those states that have legal provisions on the books for it. Thanx, 68.39.174.238 ( talk) 19:57, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
The colors are quite POV. I don't think I've ever seen black used on a map. -- I. Pankonin ( t· c) 23:52, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Whoever added the image with the "neutral colors": I have no attachment to any of these color sets (Although I heartily dislike the pitch black v. bright green one), so you can pick more appropriate ones if you wish. 68.39.174.238 ( talk) 18:03, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
Article(s): Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry of Laos
Request: I'd appreciate if someone could clean up that logo and then convert it to SVG format. A big part of the logo is the same as on the Coat of arms of Laos. That's a good start! Thanks a lot! Emilaca ( talk) 06:49, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Article(s): Christmas Island, Shire of Christmas Island, Coat of arms of Christmas Island-- escondites 10:26, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Request: SVGify, please. The map and the bird are already vectorized in the flag. TIA. -- escondites 10:26, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion:
Overly high-resolution versions of copyrighted logos should be avoided, however, as they are less likely to be fair use. For SVG formats, versions of the logo that contain significantly more detail than is necessary to display at the desired (low) resolution should be avoided.

I used this to draw from. Sagredo ⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 04:20, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Either that or an operator headspace error. This should fix it.
Articels: Lunar eclipse and todays eclipse.
Request: SVGify and prettyfy (IE. The SVG doesn't have to look exactly like this GIF, IE. It's not a coatofarms ;)). 68.39.174.238 ( talk) 00:25, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Oppinion: Here's a quickie before I go out to watch. Sagredo ⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 01:21, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Notes: After the earth's shadow tapers to a cone, the area is brighter. A really good diagram would show the earth's atmosphere refracting and dispersing some light into the umbra. Sagredo ⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 01:21, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
smaller relative the earth are, making the earth larger than the sun (I think workable), making the drawing MUCH longer, closer to the actual scale (not practical) or bending the lines (undesirable) If I understand correctly, the the penumbra is around 4000 miles at the earth, the and umbra at most 60 to 100 miles, (if it reaches the earth) Sagredo ⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 02:25, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Article(s) it would most likely appear in: Battle of Lake Erie, USS Niagara (1813), U.S. Brig Niagara (replica), James Lawrence, Oliver Hazard Perry

Graphist opinion: Here's a start. It would be good to have a higher resolution image to draw a svg from. Sagredo ⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 22:51, 28 February 2008 (UTC) Found one. This should be close to the original flag. Sagredo ⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 04:02, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
Article(s): Portal:Ohio

Request: Can the seal (which is requested for deletion BTW) be vectorized, the elements can be found in the flag of the state. Thanks.-- escondites 17:36, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: Does anyone know what the three objects at the top are, and what is the inner circle. My guess is a chain. Sagredo ⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 19:32, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
Article(s): Phoenix, Arizona, Gilbert, Arizona, Leavenworth, Kansas
Request:
Graphist opinion: Gilbert done. What's the Phoenix seal supposed to look like—black and white? Any colors? It looks like it was scanned from a notarized document. As for Leavenworth, I will honestly say it's out of my league; perhaps someone with more artistic flair :) Fvasconcellos ( t· c) 18:28, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Article(s): Polar ice packs
Request: slow this bad boy down, and as an aside, please explain the mechanism by which one speeds up or slows down an animated gif. -- Chris (??? • ????) ( talk) 06:36, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: One makes an animated gif by putting together a series of frames in an appropriate editor, which allows you to specify the delay time for each frame. A setting of "no delay" or similar will display the frames at maximum speed, which in my experience is something like 12 frames/second. If you had each of the frames available, you could re-make the animation but setting a longer delay time, say 0.5 seconds/frame or so. Jeff Dahl ( Talk • contribs) 07:15, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Opinion:
Article(s): Gram-negative bacteria, Cell envelope
Request: This is a very good image, but the articles are using a PNG version because the equivalent SVG original Image:Cellwall-GN.svg is too large (6 MB). Can somebody fiddle with the SVG to make it small enough to use? I tried to edit myself, but can't get it to load in inkscape. - Neparis ( talk) 21:46, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: In addition to the file size, I noticed some rendering problems, so I tried saving the file as a plain svg. This did not fix the rendering problems. I would say that the best solution is to make the drawing simpler, with fewer elements. Having tens of thousands of phospholipid units shown in the membrane is overkill, and somewhat confusing. I would probably try redrawing with larger, simpler, and fewer phospholipid units. I also don't understand the pink half-tint background with rounded corners and some of the other design elements. I'll see if I can redraw it so that it looks nicer and is a reasonable file size. Jeff Dahl ( Talk • contribs) 04:30, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Article(s): Chalco and possibly others
Request: A neat SVG version of the Aztec glyph for Chalco. The box around it can be ignored; a simpler version without it is in the bottom right of folio 17v of the Codex Mendoza. Could be used as the equivalent of a flag, in conflict infoboxes (if we ever get some articles on Aztec battles) and the like. -- Ptcamn ( talk) 01:14, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: I've done this image. Hope it looks good. Wasn't sure about the size of the boxes, so I did 12 in a symmetric pattern. Let me know if this is good. XcepticZP ( talk) 14:29, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Graphist opinion:Here's the first one, second coming soon. Jeff Dahl ( Talk • contribs) 20:15, 6 March 2008 (UTC) Here is the second. I've been uploading only raster images of these non-free logos. I do have the vector versions available, but I'm reluctant to upload over licensing concerns. Jeff Dahl ( Talk • contribs) 20:37, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
Article(s): The Scout Association of Papua New Guinea

Article(s): Scouting in Kyrgyzstan
Request: SVGify and brighten blue to the ultramarine Sagredo used on the Coptic cross. This one is kind of a strange situation. I am actually the designer of this emblem, inadvertantly. When I lived there a decade ago, I was showing their Scouts what other countries' emblems looked like, and sketched out some designs they could play with as they came up with their own. Instead of using their own, they took mine down to the Ministry of Justice and registered it that afternoon. So this is a Scout logo, yet I am the creator of it and give permission for it to be SVGified, if that makes any sense. -- Chris (??? • ????) ( talk) 00:07, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: I redrew the main flag, I can do the scout logo next. Jeff Dahl ( Talk • contribs) 18:08, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
Article(s): Chuuk
Request: make islands stand out better if you can. Also, trim out the code at the bottom, thanks. -- Chris (??? • ????) ( talk) 00:07, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: It was a bit tricky and the adjusted version isn't perfect, but it is an improvement (I think). I selected the ocean and clouds from the hue and saturation channels in the image with a feather select, inverted the selection to get the islands, and reduced the blue channel to make the islands less hazy. Some of the clouds (especially down in the bottom left) aren't quite right though. Btw, there was a larger version available from the NASA website so I uploaded that one as well, then uploaded the modification over it. I think that might have been a mistake because Mediawiki's refusing to show the new version but it'll probably sort itself out eventually. Time3000 ( talk) 12:55, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
Article(s): {{ Celts WP invite}}, several templates
Request: SVGify, make background clear instead of white -- Chris (??? • ????) ( talk) 23:41, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: I've had a go at this one. I was reluctant to "tidy up" the original dogs too much so they are still a bit raggedy, but the circular features are cleaner in the svg – ch1902 13:55, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Article(s): Surface weather observation
Request:I uploaded this image, and after it uploaded a checkerboard pattern showed up in the background. To make things worse, it doesn't even show up properly on the page it was meant for, surface weather observation. Any help would be appreciated to make this image viewable, particularly at a 200 pixel width. Thegreatdr ( talk) 16:01, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: (moving comments into template form) The checkerboard indicates the background is transparent, which is sometimes desirable. I will try redrawing it. Jeff Dahl ( Talk • contribs) 16:38, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Request: Is there a way to get rid of the brightly coloured writing britisch and portu-giesisch to just have the unspoilt map? Also, is gif the best format for the image? Thanks -- Mangwanani ( talk) 16:48, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: I'll take this one. Some text accuracy will be lost in the labels that were covered by the writing, but that's that. GIF is not the best format IMO—this would be better a a PNG, though converting one compressed format to another is never a good idea :) Fvasconcellos * ( t· c) 18:14, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Article(s): Kosovo, Flag of Kosovo and List of flags of Kosovo
Request: The SVG rendering of the the first version of the Flag of Kosovo is wrong. The borders of Kosovo looks boxy in full view, which in reality is not, nor is Kosovo that small. The second version of the Flag, however, is more precise in Kosovo's borders when in full view and the size of Kosovo looks just about right and I request that this version is rendered for the SVG version of the Kosovar Flag. -- Prevalis ( talk) 17:38, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Graphist opinion:There seems to be a tree between the two of them. The details of the tree were eroded by the stain, which I'm guessing is the white. But I am unsure whether or not the white on either side of them is part of the stain or not. Because it appears to be cutting another tree on the left in half two. Such detail can not be recovered.

The left y-axis should be "Millions of passengers", the right y-axis should be "Million tonnes". I'm not sure how to indicate which data set goes with which y-axis, maybe color coordination.

To understand why each country support or is oppose to Kosovian independance, it may be great to add the a/ "explosion-icon" , b/ the name of the area : example "icone + Basque (under the icone, in small and half-translucid)" to localize local independentist movements (es:Basque, es:Cataloña , fr:Corsica, ru:tchecheni , cn:tibet, etc, etc.).
Add small icons and mostly tranparent icons may be great because :
Many thanks for your help ! 61.228.30.208 ( talk) 10:48, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion:
I strongly object to the addition of these "icones". There is something such as too much information, or bad information. In this case, the map cannot possibly contain impartially, or in an easily verifiable and documented way, an indication of well over 200 ethnic/separatist conflicts around the world; furthermore, such a map is beside the point for a map that is supposed to indicate international recognition by states. Furthermore, assessing what constitutes an internal ethnic conflict vs. other kinds is laden with POV implications, as is also the exact placement of the conflict-designating "icone" in some places. And the present implementation includes an "icone" somewhere in Scotland (?!) and no indication of confllicts anywhere in Indonesia, which is curious. Best to leave this feature off. I will revert the graphic to last version showing just states, where, for great majorit of cases, simplified indication of boundaries on global maps is not POV-sensitive. Also, the legend already in wide use on many Wikipedias has no provision the "icones". Incidentally, there is no such word as "icones". One icon, two or more icons. And we already have POV/OR issues with just indicating the color of the country in accordance with the legend actuallly used. Best wishes, -- Mareklug talk 18:06, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Request: There is already this request at the top of the page, but I tought I'll add the remaing thing to do here as the old request might get "lost". So, these two seals actually contain Arabic text, which encircles the content inside, but the image uses a "drawing" of the text, which isn't very clear as I guess Jackaranga, who made these, isn't Arabophone, which is probably why he drew it. So I tried inputting the Arabic text into Inkscape and then vectorizing it, but the letters showed up wrongly. Perhaps it needs a special font or so, and I also don't know how to make text so circular. And now the request: can someone do the text please? The text is: الجمهورية الجزائرية الديمقراطية الشعبية. Thanks in advance. -- escondites 10:26, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: I changed the blue one, let me know if that is any better. I don't have any Arabic fonts on my computer, only the default one, I tried uploading the image with the writing as a text element, but the wiki software didn't like it and couldn't generate the thumbnail correctly, also the image only showed correctly in Inkscape not in Firefox.

Graphist opinion: How's this? The text is a trace of a font in MSWord, as Inkscape (at least my copy) doesn't do Arabic. If it's OK, then we'll need to re-upload over the correctly named file. If it's not what you want, experiment win MSWord with fonts until you find one you like, and let me know. Sagredo ⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 07:27, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Request: slow this bad boy down, and as an aside, please explain the mechanism by which one speeds up or slows down an animated gif. -- Chris (??? • ????) ( talk) 06:36, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion: One makes an animated gif by putting together a series of frames in an appropriate editor, which allows you to specify the delay time for each frame. A setting of "no delay" or similar will display the frames at maximum speed, which in my experience is something like 12 frames/second. If you had each of the frames available, you could re-make the animation but setting a longer delay time, say 0.5 seconds/frame or so. Jeff Dahl ( Talk • contribs) 07:15, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Graphist opinion: In addition to the file size, I noticed some rendering problems, so I tried saving the file as a plain svg. This did not fix the rendering problems. I would say that the best solution is to make the drawing simpler, with fewer elements. Having tens of thousands of phospholipid units shown in the membrane is overkill, and somewhat confusing. I would probably try redrawing with larger, simpler, and fewer phospholipid units. I also don't understand the pink half-tint background with rounded corners and some of the other design elements. I'll see if I can redraw it so that it looks nicer and is a reasonable file size. Jeff Dahl ( Talk • contribs) 04:30, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Graphist opinion: It was a bit tricky and the adjusted version isn't perfect, but it is an improvement (I think). I selected the ocean and clouds from the hue and saturation channels in the image with a feather select, inverted the selection to get the islands, and reduced the blue channel to make the islands less hazy. Some of the clouds (especially down in the bottom left) aren't quite right though. Btw, there was a larger version available from the NASA website so I uploaded that one as well, then uploaded the modification over it. I think that might have been a mistake because Mediawiki's refusing to show the new version but it'll probably sort itself out eventually. Time3000 ( talk) 12:55, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Many thanks for your help ! 61.228.30.208 ( talk) 10:48, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion:
I strongly object to the addition of these "icones". There is something such as too much information, or bad information. In this case, the map cannot possibly contain impartially, or in an easily verifiable and documented way, an indication of well over 200 ethnic/separatist conflicts around the world; furthermore, such a map is beside the point for a map that is supposed to indicate international recognition by states. Furthermore, assessing what constitutes an internal ethnic conflict vs. other kinds is laden with POV implications, as is also the exact placement of the conflict-designating "icone" in some places. And the present implementation includes an "icone" somewhere in Scotland (?!) and no indication of confllicts anywhere in Indonesia, which is curious. Best to leave this feature off. I will revert the graphic to last version showing just states, where, for great majorit of cases, simplified indication of boundaries on global maps is not POV-sensitive. Also, the legend already in wide use on many Wikipedias has no provision the "icones". Incidentally, there is no such word as "icones". One icon, two or more icons. And we already have POV/OR issues with just indicating the color of the country in accordance with the legend actuallly used. Best wishes, -- Mareklug talk 18:06, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Request: There is already this request at the top of the page, but I tought I'll add the remaing thing to do here as the old request might get "lost". So, these two seals actually contain Arabic text, which encircles the content inside, but the image uses a "drawing" of the text, which isn't very clear as I guess Jackaranga, who made these, isn't Arabophone, which is probably why he drew it. So I tried inputting the Arabic text into Inkscape and then vectorizing it, but the letters showed up wrongly. Perhaps it needs a special font or so, and I also don't know how to make text so circular. And now the request: can someone do the text please? The text is: الجمهورية الجزائرية الديمقراطية الشعبية. Thanks in advance. -- escondites 10:26, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

If it's not what you want, experiment win MSWord with fonts until you find one you like, and let me know. Sagredo ⊙☿♀♁♂♃♄ 07:27, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

I personally prefer unlabeled unexploded. The dots can have their names superimposed over top with a template. You might want to upload both exploded and unexploded to Commons since other wikis might like it differently. 68.39.174.238 ( talk) 01:23, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

SVGfy it & clean it up a little. -- [[User:Shirishag75|Shirishag75]] ( talk) 05:11, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
Graphist opinion:
I encourage someone to convert the 3rd one where SVG convertion is really need, and the last one where convertion will take 2 min.
For others, I don't see the need, sorry. Other will be too complex to redraw in SVG (lost lot of time, good result not wanranty) while the current PNG version are often really correct. I sum : the tiny comparative gain that we will get is not interesting compare to the one or 2 hours lost by someone. Generous graphist, if you want to do these request : close your computer and go to drink a Tea !

Request: Since the layout of these churches is explicitely detailed in the article on Asturian architecture, I think there's value in saving these images from deletion.

Graphist opinion: The first plan wasn't too bad and the svg is an accurate trace. The second, however, had a lot of artefacts making tracing difficult, I'd say it was reasonably accurate though — ₪₪ ch1902 ₪₪ 17:52, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
