NASA TV

Resolved

NASA TV logo
Tracing by Ivan Akira

Request: Requesting a cleanup of the NASA TV logo, since the current options are either a black background (not optimal for Wiki display) or very jagged borders (where it was converted from black background). If it can be converted to SVG, that's fantastic, but if the current PNG can simply be cleaned up, that would be good also. Thanks! — Huntster (t @ c) 02:44, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion:

I think I could take this request. But, does NASA permit us to have a derivation work from that image? I'm just concern even the license tell us that we can. Oh yeah... maybe I will trace the image from that image, if it's permitted. Ivan Akira (talk) 12:54, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Images from NASA are in the public domain as it is a U.S. Government entity, with only the main NASA "meatball" (big blue ball with red halo) having any restrictions. So you are free to do anything you wish to this image. Thanks for trying this request :) — Huntster (t @ c) 18:05, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Request taken by Ivan Akira: Okay. Btw, the File:NASA TV.png is actually not a PNG image file, but it is JPG image file... So I will recreate the image and export it to proper PNG file and upload over, okay? Ivan Akira (talk) 03:09, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Do whatever you need to do. I would recommend, however, taking the original black background and going from there. Might be easier to make the transparent background that way rather than working through the pixelation that came with the conversion to white background. BTW, how could you tell it was a JPG converted to PNG format? (I only did that to avoid evil JPG compression.) — Huntster (t @ c) 05:45, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oooh... when I try to open the latest version of that image, Photoshop and Flash keep telling me that the image format is invalid, therefore it can't be loaded to the editor. So I tried to rename the file to other common image extension such as GIF, BMP, and finally I came to JPG. That's why I can tell that actually that is a JPG file. Ivan Akira (talk) 07:18, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done I'm already upload two version of the logo, first at File:NASA TV.png and File:NASA TV (Tracing).png. Please take a look, and choose which logo is better for you. And I'm terribly sorry if my tracing is not as good as a professional. Ivan Akira (talk) 07:41, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Ivan. While the tracing version does lack the 3D qualities of the original, it makes up for it with the simple crispness of the new version. Very good! Regarding the PNG/JPG issue, that's interesting and indicates that something was changed between version 1 and version 2 that turned it into a PNG wrapped JPG rather than a straight PNG file, which the original one was. Learn something new all the time. — Huntster (t @ c) 10:29, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nice to hear it. And yes, the traced version does lack of 3D quality, even I can tell that after finishing the job, hohoho... And, if you want better quality logo, how about waiting for other Wikigraphist to try on this request (which means re-opening this request)? Ivan Akira (talk) 11:07, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I'm not that concerned about it. I'm just happy for some progress, hehe. Thanks again Ivan! — Huntster (t @ c) 17:33, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ooh, Ok then... Ivan Akira (talk) 23:27, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Israeli Air Force Ensign

Resolved

Request: The colours are inaccurate according to actual flags I have seen in use, such as 11 and 22. I contacted the creator Reuvenk over a month ago and there have been no replies on either of our pages, so I decided to request it here.

I'd like to suggest for proper colours, that you use for the roundel and stripes the shade of blue used in IAF Roundel, and for the lighter blue of the field, you use the blue from Israeli Army Flag

Governor's Standards

California's Governor
Kansas' Governor

Request: Please recreate in SVG. The Standard for California, the seal needs a bit of work (there is an illistration of the actual flag HERE) but other then that, there shouldn't be a problem. Kansas' Standard simply needs to be made in SVG, no re-drawing should be neccesary.

Flags need SVG

Resolved

Nevada's Governor
New York's Governor

New York's Governor
Texas' Governor

Governor of Nevada.svg
Governor of New York.svg
Standard Of Governor Of Texas.svg

Request: Pleasre recreate these in SVG. There is already SVG components, so work should be easy. For all three you can use this flag for the base, and all three, including New York's follow this ratio. As my PNGs are not 100% accurate(I did my best)in the size and placement of the stars, you can check their discription for links to FOTW to be exact.

For Nevada, it's basically a centering of the canton emblem from the state flag SVG The four stars in the corner

For New York, it's just the State Flag, with the addition of four stars, one in each corner, and the shorter ratio.

For Texas, it has the State Seal in the centre of the flag. This is the version I I request you use, and I also ask that you KEEP a small white ring between the much lighter Seal and the darker blue of the flag(as in my PNG version). Fry1989 (talk) 21:48, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): I'm just beginning to learn my way around Inkscape, but I've done New York. I hope that works. Wine Guy (talk) 00:24, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's great mate, though if someone could just remove the black border from the stars? Texas' will need a professional though. Fry1989 (talk) 00:42, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Star borders gone now, I hadn't noticed that earlier. Wine Guy (talk) 01:08, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

THUMBS UP MATE! :D Fry1989 (talk) 01:10, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Working on Nevada now, but must take a break. I'll have it done a bit later tonight. Glad the NY one came out well, this is a good learning experience. Wine Guy (talk) 02:51, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nevada took a bit more work than I anticipated. The colors looked odd, so I found the Nevada statute [11] which describes the state flag; the color of the scroll, and the word "Nevada" are supposed to be golden yellow, and the star is silver. I made several other adjustments to the canton as well, although the lettering could probably still use a touch-up from someone who knows what they're doing. Since the state flag used the same persimmony-orange color and a too-dark shade of blue, I fixed that up as well. Wine Guy (talk) 10:55, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll attempt Texas'. Connormah (talk) 22:52, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Massachusetts' Governor
Done
Done
Done

Request: I have three more Governor's Standards to request. These are the last 3 easy ones, there's three others after that, but they'll need more work so I'll request them at a later date.

Massachusetts' is a pennant form of the current State Flag, it'll need transparency and a thin border to distinguish it as a pennant.

Michagan's is the State Flag, but with the background changed from blue to white.

Puerto Rico's is the Commonwealth's Coat of Arms on a white field.

SVG help please, 2 of 3 objects disappearing in thumbs

Resolved

Igloo logo.svg thumb

Request: This is really starting to bug me, because I'm fairly certain that there is an easy and obvious fix for this; I just haven't figured out what it is. There are 3 objects in the svg: a light blue "hump", a greenish-blue that covers the left and top, and a darker blue front with a linear gradient. The full size image looks fine, but when thumbnailed only the dark blue front appears. I've tried everything I can think of. Any ideas? Thanks. Wine Guy (talk) 06:42, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): Gave it a go, have no idea what's going on, I think it's wiki commons and not the file that is at fault though, 2/3 of the way there at least! Sodacan (talk) 19:42, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

2 out of 3 is definitely better than 1! And I agree, I think the problem is with how the wiki handles svg's made in inkscape. I thought saving as a "plain" svg would help, but apparently not. I just don't know enough about the issue to fix it. Thanks very much for your help. Wine Guy (talk) 21:56, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wine Guy, is the blur necessary? Blurring values are one thing that bugs the Wiki software. ZooFari 22:39, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I didn't realize that could be a problem. The blur is definitely not necessary if it causes problems with rendering. I'll keep that issue in mind in the future; as I mentioned in the flag thread above I'm just beginning to figure out inkscape and how to make svg's work on wiki. The more I learn, it seems that simpler may be better. The help is much appreciated. Wine Guy (talk) 23:40, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like removing the blur worked. I never would have figured that out; thanks again to you both. Wine Guy (talk) 23:51, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Watermark removal

Request: Can the watermark added by the National Library of Portugal be removed? — Cheers, JackLee ^–talk– 09:31, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): Request taken by Nesnad: Not sure if this is a Done or not, because it isn't perfect. But I also recognize that watermarks are against policy (thus I overwrote the original) and tried to defuse the current watermark. I hope this is a good start, it's a lot harder to see now. Cheers!

Flags

Pennsylvania (missing banners)

Pennsylvania (missing banners)
Vector
Rhode Island
Vector
Vector

Request:These are the last of the Governor's flags that should be in SVG (except for 2 others not on here, that I will request at a later date). I have saved these for last as they will take some effort, and I really do appreciate whomever can give their time and talents to this.

Pennsylvania's I have put first, as I figure it may be the easiest. It is the State Flag, but with a white field. Above the Arms is a banner saying "The Governor", and below the arms a banner saying "Commonwealth Of Pennsylvania". The flag appears to also be in the ratio of 1:2, and an image of the flag can be seen HERE. The bottom banner appears to be extremely similar to the one of North Dakotaa's Flag, I hope that can help in creating it.

Rhode Island's follows the design of the 1936 Vice-President's Flag, but with the state's Coat of Arms in the centre, also in it's original resolution.

Tennessee's follows the Secretary of the Army's Flag, but with the same ratio as Rhode Island's. It has the State Military Crest in the center, which is partially stretched, it appears. The part that the Tree "stands" upon, is very similar to the one in this Flag, so I bet it could be editied and used for this.

Again, thank you to those who can take this on. Fry1989 (talk) 01:29, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): I'll have a go at Tennessee, and if it goes well, Rhode Island. NikNaks93 (talk) 09:54, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

T done. Moving onto RI. I've noticed that I've given it the dimensions of the Tennessee state flag, not the Rhode Island standard, but I'll come back to that. NikNaks93 (talk) 10:28, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Those two are done. I'll work on another if there are no other takers by this afternoon. NikNaks93 (talk) 11:33, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I'll try Pennsylvania's. NikNaks93 (talk) 14:44, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Three down. Alabama's will require the most work. A good vector image of the coat of arms is a must, but, as with the arms of Nunavut from earlier on this page, the only copy is on a paysite. Someone more experienced will have to tackle that, as it's a little beyond my capabilities. NikNaks93 (talk) 15:40, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I understand. If someone on here can tackle Alabama's, I'd really appreciate it. Fry1989 (talk) 20:41, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): I reduced the weight of the strokes to 0.5pt, re-did the star shape totally, created new strokes at 2 degree increments then used an 8-pointed star as a clipping mask.

Color change request

Resolved

Request: The colors aren't the actual green and red used in the flag of Bangladesh. The HTML color code of the actual green and red color is #006a4e and #f42a41 respectively. Hope somebody change it to the right. You may look into the actual flag here to know the actual colors. Regards, Tanvir 11:40, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actually no. Newer one is darker, can you make it more bright? There is also a border with the original. Can you see that please. Besides the ratio of the newer one is improper, and please make the nominal size 60 × 60 pixels. Thank you for you try. I hope you will get my point. Tanvir 15:03, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oh sorry. Border is kinda okay I think. Just make it more visible. But the ratio of the circle and square is not, as well as the nominal size. If you have any idea please let me know. Thanks. Tanvir 15:06, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The "dark" you refer to is because that's the exact green you wanted. The border is also in the exact green you wanted. The lighter shade of green in the gradient is halfway between the green you wanted and the green of the other flag. The nominal size is set by mediawiki as this is a vector image. The circle is the correct proportion but is distorted by the wave effect. It doesn't appear so in the other image as whoever did it didn't distort the circle relative to the flag wave.Fred the Oyster (talk) 15:33, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I get your point. But I think the circle size need to be increased a little more comparatively to the original. Tanvir 17:39, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've enlarged both the centre circle and the nominal image size. Hopefully mediawiki will pick up the latter. It hasn't done for some other illustrations I've done. --Fred the Oyster (talk) 10:51, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done you're right: the filesize was the problem. The rsvglib should create the raster graphic preview, but was overtaxed. Use the clone function instead to copy every element x times to reduce your filesizes.

Here are two alternate illustrations for extra help: The one on top was used from 1955-1959, and you can use the Chinese Roundel as a base. The one on the bottom was used from 1959-1962. You can use the Yemeni Roundel as a base.

For Sweden's roundel, I'd just like to ask it's colours be edited to match the National Flag.

Malaysia's, apparently is wrong. I have been looking at photos of Malaysian military aircraft, and the dark blue is supposed to be on the inside, with an outer ring of the light blue, as seen HERE Here is the SVG version of the Malaysian Roundel, although obviously the one as shown in the photo doesn't have that intricacy inside the star. I'd like to suggest using the dark blue from the PNG shown above, but the gold and light blue from the SVG.

Flags request (swallowtailing)

Resolved

Åland
With tail
Faroes
With tail

Request: Following the practice used by the Nordic countries, the dependent territories of Åland and the Faroes also have swallowtailed variants of their flag.

According to FOTW, Åland's is used by the yacht clubs of the Islands, using badges in the canton to mark which club, similar to Finland's yachting ensign, the difference being that it is swallowtailed.

For the Faroes, it appears to be only an unofficial variant, however I can confirm it does exist, as seen in this photo and the FOTW article on the Faroes.

Could someone please make SVGs of these swallowtailed variants. Fry1989 (talk) 22:16, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): I'll do these. Just wondering what the specific badge is for the Aland one. Is it the same as the Finnish, or slightly different? NikNaks93 (talk) 12:27, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if you scroll down on the link I gave for the FOTW site, it shows 3 badges, so I'm guessing there is atleast 3 yacht clubs in Aland. I'd suggest though, just for ease, that you just make a gold circle in the canton where the badges would be, similar to how Finland has that black circle with an X where the badge of the club would normally be, unless you're up for making all three badges seperately. Fry1989 (talk) 19:16, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think I'll pass at making the different badges. Maybe if they gain their own articles one day, I'll do it, but it's unnecessary work as it is. Anyway, done with a similarly shaped circle. NikNaks93 (talk) 19:42, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

They look good, though the ratios appear just a bit off, and the swallowtailing on the flags aren't full split(like this), they should start only on the gold part for Alands like this, and the white parts for Faroes, like this. I think Aland will look better once that'd fixed, whereas the Faroes also needs to be a bit shorter. I'd suggest for the Faroes, that you use Iceland's state flag as a basis for ratio. Fry1989 (talk) 20:34, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Now that I've fixed where the tails begin, I think it looks better in proportion, but if it's still not quite there, I'll modify it. NikNaks93 (talk) 09:36, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actually they look perfect :), I'd just ask if you could, that you add a border on the tail for the Faroes, like Finland's presidential flag, because of the problem with white-on-transparency. Other then that, you've done really good, thanks so much :) Fry1989 (talk) 19:00, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Flag and Seal

Resolved

Request:

I would like to have an SVG version of these two files. Alabama's Governors' flag, and the State Seal of Ohio, that will be needed for the Governor's Flag of Ohio that I will be requesting later.

Alabama's is the State Flag, but with the State Coat of Arms, and State Military Crest in the upper and lower segments of the Flag. For the Coat of Arms, the following components are available in SVG: French Quarter, Spanish Quarter (lions need to be all red, and castles all gold), British Quarter (can be rotated to vertical), Confederate Quarter, and the United States center emblem (from the center of the Eagle). The rest of it though will need drawing. The banner at the bottom of the arms says "AUDEMUS - JURA NOSTRA - DEFENDERE". The Crest in the bottom segment of the flag is a cotton flower.

Ohio's Seal will take some work I know, I hope someone on here with expert skills can do it up though.

Graphist opinion(s):

Ohio's Seal: I don't like that we have images from vector-images.com but if the orginal is PD, Commons seems to be accepting people converting the EPS to SVG, you just need to pay $2.45 at http://vector-images.com/image.php?epsid=4137 (see: File:Flag of San Francisco.svg, File:Seal of Texas.svg, File:Coat of Arms of Jordan.svg, File:Coat of Arms of North Korea.svg, File:Coat of Arms of American Samoa.svg, File:Seal of New York City.svg)--Svgalbertian (talk) 23:58, 6 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Request: Colombia and Ecuador have Naval Aviation roundels. Colombia's is just the Air Force Roundel over an Anchor. Ecuador's is also the Air Force roundel, but has the Eagle and Anchor motif from the Ecuadorian Naval Jack superimposed on it in black.

Macedonia's Presidential Seal just needs transparency added.

El Salvador's Presidential Seal needs to be made into SVG, which shouldn't be too hard, since the Republic's Coat of Arms is already SVG.

The Presidential Seal of the Republic of Korea can be seen HERE and HERE. It uses the Phoenix and Hibiscus motif from the Presidential Standard, though in a darker blue, I'd say the blue from the National Emblem. You can get some of the Korean characters from the national emblem, though the others will probably need translation or something.

V85 (talk) 22:38, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

Regarding the Hans Jæger portrait, the caption says it's based on a painting by Edvard Munch. Munch died in 1944, so the painting (and any derivatives of it) will remain copyrighted until 2015 under Norwegian copyright law (70 years p.m.a.). To be completely safe, someone who knows how to edit such files might want to remove that page from the DjVu file. Also, once the painting does become free, it would presumably be better to use a photo of the original rather than the black-and-white printed version. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 16:11, 28 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Request: This was not copied under ideal conditions. The book from which it was taken cannot leave the Seattle Room of the Seattle Public Library, and there are big fluorescent lights above. I snapped a shot as well as I could and did about 10 minutes of cleanup with GIMP, largely to account for distortion.

If anyone can clean this up further it would be appreciated, but no crisis if not. I'd guess that, since it's intended to be pure black-and-white (no grayscale) there are some nice tricks to bring to this, but I don't know them. Jmabel ! talk 00:43, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not bad. Unfortunately, also reinforces a few imperfections. But nice to have. - Jmabel ! talk 21:38, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I did another version, which you can see here. I deliberately left the background of the stippled areas gray, since that's how they came out after inpainting and background subtraction (presumably because, between printing and photographing, some of the stipples became too blurred to resolve). If you really want black and white, a bit of careful unsharp masking followed by a threshold should produce fairly good results, but nothing I could come up with that way looked IMO quite as good as the grayscale version I uploaded. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 20:30, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There's two things you can do, the first one's easy and I know this works. You're probably using Inkscape to edit these? If you select text and press ctr+shift+c, it becomes a graphic instead of plain text so it will always be rendered the same way. The second solution may be better but I'm not sure this will work. Commons doesn't support all fonts, most windows fonts like arial and times new roman are not supported because they are not free. This means that it'll replace those fonts with ones that are free but look different. You should pick a font that IS supported by commons here:m:SVG_fonts Richardprins (talk) 15:52, 11 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, it used DejaVu Sans font, and my win7 didn't have it installed, so they were replaced by ArialMT. It's fixed now. --Bachinchi (talk) 22:36, 15 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

English version

Request: If it is not too much work, perhaps an identical English-language version of this file could be created to illustrate the English Wikipedia articles Vertical integration and Horizontal integration, in a similar fashion to their German-language equivalents (Vertikale Integration and Horizontale Integration). An English-language version would be much appreciated, and if making multilingual diagrams is not too much of a hassle, French, Spanish, Dutch, Russian, and Swedish versions could also be made for those respective Wikipedias. However, please don't go out of your way to do this if you think the benefit isn't worth the cost. Thanks! TFCforever (talk) 23:03, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Sorry about the delay, but here's the translation into English...

Autokäufer = Car (automobile) buyers

Garagisten = Garage owners

Autoimporteure = Car (automobile) importers

Autohersteller = Car (automobile) manufacturers

Zulieferer = Suppliers

Rohstoffproduzenten = Commodity (primary) producers

Vertika = Vertical

Horizonta = Horizontal

Vorwarts = Forwards

Ruckwarts = Backwards

Also, I am not skilled enough with a program like Inkscape to insert the English words into the image. I am willing to learn, but I also don't want to waste the time of anyone here at the graphics lab. Thanks so much for all your work!

DoneI've made an SVG conversion. Anyone is welcome to translate the titles now. They can do it in a text editor. One thing, though, when I click on the image to let firefox render the SVG, the titles fit perfectly in the boxes (they are centered), but the Wikimedia png generator makes the text flow outside of the boxes. Any ideas how to change this? Also, if someone supplies me with translations, I'd be glad to make different language versions if you can't (or don't want) to do it yourself! -Andrew c (talk) 14:03, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps to put a better point on it, if a request is not fulfilled at any of the local-language Wikipedias, is there any valid reason that request should not be brought here, to receive assistance from a broader array of graphic artists? Such requests can only improve the various Wikipedias. --Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 09:24, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Surely the point is that these images cannot be posted on Commons, so as such should not be created here. It's a little strange to crosspost like that, even if the original has been archived. I would also argue that the number of artists on both sites is equal, and there's definitely a significant overlap of artists anyway. It would be more sensible to repost it on en with more specific instructions so it can be completed more easily. Just my two cents. NikNaks (talk) 17:15, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Kyrgyzstan

Flag of Tunisia
Vector

Request:

Kyrgyzstan: A discription from FOTW, it's basically the national flag but instead of the Sun & Yurt symbol, it has the National Emblem, which has been altered, so the inscription is "Kyrghyz Respublicasynyn Presidenti". I tried to do some colourization of the emblem myself, but I just couldn't get it how I liked it.

Turkmenistan: An illustration from FOTW, there's a few designs but accourding to the discussion there, this is the most accurate. The text ofcourse is "President of Turkmenistan".

Bad scan improvement

Resolved--ZooFari 21:20, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Request: Hi Guys, thank you very much for the precious work you are doing for the project. I'm used to just admire your masterpieces but this time I had to contact you and to bother you with a silly request. It's may be a hard or impossible task to ask you but I prefer to try. I guess you can manage it easily and, for sure, better than me. I have recovered from a digitalized 1905 Harper's Magazine those two pictures of the illustrator Howard Pyle about La Salle expedition in Texas (1684). Unfortunately , the Google scan is very poor. Mostly, colors: the too quick scanning blended them leaving those red-green spotty shadows. It's a pity because on the net there are only reduced versions of them and mostly from commercial sites, sometimes undownlodable even if in PD. So, those two are the only one free and large size. I have tried to correct something with Photoshop but, as you can see, with meager results. I'm a very disaster in photo retouching so, I wonder, if you experts can do something to them in order to ameliorate their quality. I know that you all are really busy so thank you very much for your time and your attention.Giorgiomonteforti (talk) 15:34, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

It looks like both of those scans have been scaled up by a factor of 4 — you can see the pixels when you zoom in. Curiously, though, the text in the original version of the first image, and the birds on the upper right of the second image that show up as black silhouettes, do not seem to be pixelated. It looks as if Google is actually doing two scanning passes — one high-resolution pass in 1-bit black&white, and a second low-resolution pass in color — and combining the results.

Anyway, the upshot of all this is that I don't think there's much anyone can do about these images, and even if someone could correct the color Moiré effect, the resulting images would still have only around 725 x 1100 pixels of actual resolution. Sorry. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 15:01, 28 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As for the second image, I've simply tried to recolor some parts. It helped to get red of Moiré (partially), but I couldn't completely restore the original colors and grid is still visible. -- deerstop. 19:48, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done. I scaled down both images by a factor of 4 and removed the moiré patterns (mostly by desaturating certain frequencies). They could still use some general improvements, though, like levels/colors adjustments and in the case of the second image, the right edge should be lightened. —Quibik (talk) 15:56, 19 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graph of trigonometric functions

Request The colors on that file are all a-jumble, and I can't really tell which is which just by a glance at it. Also it distracts our poor readers' eyes. I suggest that the reciprocal functions of the trigonometric functions are similarly colored to the trigonometric functions themselves. (e.g. sine="dark blue", cosecant="light blue"...) Does someone know how to change the colors? TeleComNasSprVen (talk) 02:13, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): Done: I've made the colours of the primary and associated reciprocal functions the same, changed all primary functions to be solid lines, changed all reciprocal functions to dotted lines, and re-ordered the reciprocal functions in the key to match their primary function (cosecant is the reciprocal of sine, rather than cosine). You can change colours by changing 'Fill and Stroke' in Inkscape (<CTRL>+<SHIFT>+F). Gringer (talk) 15:13, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

JPG stitching

My stitch-job.
JPEG

Request: If this is the wrong forum, I apologize but I didn't see any better location. This image was stitched together by me from a series of 12 jpg files. Is anyone aware of a method for losslessly stitching together multiple jpg files? Or better yet, have a script that would do it for me so I could replace my png with a much smaller jpg? VernoWhitney (talk) 18:29, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

You can only work with 8×8 pixel blocks in lossless mode, which limits your freedom of adjustments severely. So I doubt that this can be done losslessly. How about simply saving the image as a minimally compressed JPEG? Even a 100% quality JPEG would be much smaller than the PNG and with only very marginal compression artifacts. —Quibik (talk) 16:12, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I also adjusted the tone of the image, which looked too blue to me. Is it better this way? —Quibik (talk) 16:52, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As far as the tint goes, I haven't seen any other version of the picture, so I have no idea what shade it's actually supposed to be. I'll try posting JPGs of this and two other images I have that need stitched together and see how they look. VernoWhitney (talk) 17:03, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Taking the other images of paintings in Category:Henri Pierre Picou as a reference, I think my edit was quite correct. —Quibik (talk) 20:05, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It would probably be best not to advise people to save JPEGs with a 100% so-called "quality" factor in the vast majority of cases; such JPEGs are not lossless, and if you go beyond the low nineties, then you generally get a large increase in file size without much corresponding improvement in real image quality... AnonMoos (talk) 16:27, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's true, but my comment was not intended so much as a suggestion for saving JPEGs with ridiculously low compression, but rather against using PNG for photographic images. —Quibik (talk) 17:56, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I took your advice and saved it at 95% quality with some other settings tweaked to get a reasonable size. I also uploaded File:Picou, Henri Pierre - The Judgement of Paris - 19th century.jpg, File:Picou, Henri Pierre - Loss of Innocence - 1885.jpg and File:Picou, Henri Pierre - Innocence Seduced by Love - 1886.jpg in the same fashion. And If they appear to be an acceptable compromise between file size and compression artifacts, then I guess this "request" is done. VernoWhitney (talk) 14:34, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and while most of his pictures are certainly in warmer shades than this one, not all are, for example File:Picou, Henri Pierre - The Hammock - 1884.jpg (either that or it's off-color too) so I'm still unsure about adjusting the tone. VernoWhitney (talk) 14:40, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, when I had a new, fresh look at both of the versions side-by-side, the original looked more natural to me too. So, I agree. --Quibik (talk) 16:18, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've now made the Montana one.

Arnaud Ramey (talk) 15:49, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to fix the upload from Hydrox, but for some reason it will still not render. Your image still has some issues however. In Firefox, the sky disappears. With Wikimedia (librsvg), the image cannot be scaled below 115px or else the entire image disappears except for the sky (e.x. [17]). I am unsure what is causing the Firefox issue, but Mediawiki tends to have issues with blurs.--Svgalbertian (talk) 16:07, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A easy and dirty fix is to remove all the blur effects of the image. And may be some gradients also, especially if they contain colors with an opactiy < 100%. I've already encountered this kind of trouble with Wikimedia. I will give a shot tonight ( GMT+1 :) ). Arnaud Ramey (talk) 07:53, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

math fig from Inkscape with text

Request: I would be very grateful if anyone can suggest why the above svg file (from Inkscape) doesn't render properly. It is fine before it is uploaded.

Graphist opinion(s): You need to convert the text to paths in order for it to display well on wikipedia using the current renderer. However, the black blocks are probably because you are using flowed text in Inkscape, and there's not really an SVG standard for that. Inkscape has an 'unflow' option for text that converts flowed text into standard text blocks (but you lose the goodness of flowed text by doing that). Gringer (talk) 15:07, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

regarding wiping version history, you need to talk to an Administrator for that. There's not usually much reason to remove history — it demonstrates that you're persistent, at least ;) Gringer (talk) 15:09, 2 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks for your comments. A few points in reply. Firstly the text wasn't flowed. Secondly only that on the right was affected by the black rectangle and when the text was moved to the left side it was ok. So, I opened a new inkscape file and copied all the separate elements to the new file and re-assembled them. Success. The inkscape file must have been corrupted in some way! Shall leave you to close this topic. Thanks again. (PS. Could wiki have a previewer for svg files?) Peter Mercator (talk) 10:47, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There was definitely flowed text in the file, it just didn't have any content (i.e. a flowed region, but nothing inside it). This can be noticed by looking at to source of the older versions with black boxes and seeing a 'flowRoot' / 'flowRegion' node. Both firefox and wikimedia have different opinions about flowed text than Inkscape (i.e. they both replace flowed regions with black boxes). It is also possible that by moving text to the left you produced a different clip boundary for the picture that excluded the flowed text. Gringer (talk) 01:25, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

There's also a problem with the graph itself looking jagged if you zoom in enough. It looks like the control point coordinates have been rounded off to the nearest pixel. I replotted the graph using my version of gnuplot, which (mostly) fixed that problem, but not the text issue. I think that's either a font problem or a bug in the version of librsvg used on Wikimedia's servers, since rsvg-view displays it just fine on my computer. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 15:14, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

JamesCrook (talk) 21:01, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

Done, there were some <flowRoot> and <flowRegion> tags left in the code, presumably because some of the letter used to be flowed text.

Request: According to new law (issued 2010-11-26), the coat of arms of Moldova has different proportions on the state flag of Moldova, as you can see in the construction sheet. I've managed to correct the colors, but not the proportions. What I ask is:

Correct proportions and placement of the coa. The construction sheet must be interpreted in such way that if the flag has 2000 x 1000 px, the coa width (the length between the external tip of the wings) is 400px, height is 560px, and the central axis that runs trough aurochs' ears is set upwards at 30 px distance of the central axis of the flag (the construction sheet is a mess between proportions and actual dimensions, but the text clearly states what I've said)
Create a mirrored image of the resulting flag, and upload it as File:Flag of Moldova, reverse.svg. According to article 2.3, the reverse is now the mirrored image of the obverse.
Create an svg construction sheet, based on the corrected flag, which has all the dimensions given as proportions of the width (w, l = 3/2*w, coa width = 40%*w or 1/5*l, coa height = 56%*w, horizontal offset = 3%*w). --Alex:D (talk) 14:20, 27 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
