Modifying BSicons

The paths for  (vRP2c4) are:
<path d="M -43.2,220 236.8,-60" stroke="#999999" stroke-width="100" />
<path d="M 0,176.8 176.8,0" stroke="white" stroke-width="25" stroke-dasharray="62.5" stroke-dashoffset="93.7" />
with the x values highlighted in red. Subtracting from 500 (to mirror horizontally) gives us:
500 - -43.2 = 543.2
500 - 236.8 = 263.2
500 -     0 = 500
500 - 176.8 = 323.2
to produce the code for  (vRP2c1):
<path d="M 543.2,220 263.2,-60" stroke="#999999" stroke-width="100" />
<path d="M 500,176.8 323.2,0" stroke="white" stroke-width="25" stroke-dasharray="62.5" stroke-dashoffset="93.7" />
Similar transformations can be done with the y values to mirror vertically, or both to mirror diagonally. Useddenim (talk) 14:42, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

BSicon license

The convention is for BSicons to be licensed with {{PD-shape}}. Useddenim (talk) 18:50, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

@Useddenim: Just to be sure I do it correctly from now on, I would select "This file is not my own work," then "Another reason not mentioned above", then fill in ((PD-shape)), correct? I just wanted to confirm with you, lest I found another wrong way to do it.

(My apologies for improperly filling out the copyright on the previous icons I uploaded.) Hotdog with ketchup (talk) 00:59, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

Yes; that is correct. Useddenim (talk) 13:53, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
