- I'm writing an article on a landmark video game known for popularizing the isomorphic style. The developers' technique for doing this was a mystery to many devs at the time and I'd like to be able to illustrate how they used image masking. The gist, as I understand it, is that images used to collide with each other, so instead the devs made an image mask (in white in the example) and added detail in black atop it (monochromatic preferred). My prose source has a visual example of the masking effect here. There is an image that kind of illustrates this, but I'm not sure about the copyright of its components, so I asked its author. So I'm requesting an illustration of the additive image masking used in the game, or a free use version of the mask illustrated in my Dropbox link. Thanks! – czar 22:13, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
- I could also use some help finding/making an illustration of the overlapping bricks used in the article. It would be nice to have a side-by-side of how the object would look with one sprite placed atop the other and one where each sprite overlaps the next (like the image). I know it's a bit confusing, but the article explains the idea. – czar 22:26, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

- The linked sign doesn't appear as an official warning sign in DPWH Manual 2 (200+MB download!). Do you have a canonical source for the arc/turn and tractor trailer? Is the turn similar to the one depicted in W1-6?

- The style of this diagram is wrong, because it implies executions are a continues variable rather than count data. It should be a stacked bar chart, like this one. Could somebody please re-do it? -- bender235 ( talk) 07:01, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

I can do this. Just need to find the data---which should be straightforward because the sources are described in the image description.

- I've uploaded an example and linked to it in the gallery above. I realize there are a few cosmetic issues to address---but more seriously, I'm not convinced the stacked bars are the best option here. With the number of categories we have, some small trends visible in the line chart are obscured in this format. Let me know what you think! 4dhayman ( talk)

- Both of these fair use PNG images have recently been resized by User:Theo's Little Bot. Unfortunately, the quality of the resized images is noticeably lower than the original files (comparing the text, in particular, shows this). Therefore, it would be great if someone could try to resize the images again while retaining the quality. Alternatively (and preferably), it strikes me that these images are prime candidates for converting to SVGs, as they are relatively simple. The original, full quality versions of the images (which would need to be the basis of any fixes) are due to be deleted on 7 September. Thank you. -- Wumpus12 ( talk) 10:39, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

- I personally can't see any noticeable reduction in quality. Can you be more specific? NikNaks talk - gallery 16:30, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
- As I said, it's most noticeable around the text (looks a bit fuzzy). It is, admittedly, more noticeable on my iPhone (retina display) than my computer monitor, but still noticeable. Maybe I'm being picky. The other issue (which I forgot to mention above) is that the file sizes are now quite a bit larger, despite the images being physically smaller. – Wumpus12 ( talk) 21:06, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

- @ Sodacan:, I do not believe that your vectorization of the the 1889-1912 flag is based on a reliable source. Look at e. g. [1], it shows the flag we already have. I found the image of File:Dragonflag.jpg also as File:Personal standard of State Chief Bao Dai.png, where I know that it is outrightly wrong, as the correct flag of Bao Dai is different [2] (image is based on books I have at home).

At the moment, I think the SVG should not be used. Another topic: The colors, shouldn't we use the yellow of File:Flag of China (1889–1912).svg?-- Antemister ( talk) 17:12, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
- @ Sodacan: Many thanks for vectorising these flags, as I completely forgot about them! However, I noticed that the dragon scales are missing on the first two flags, just wondering if you could perhaps correct this, many thanks. TRAJAN 117 ( talk) 15:02, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

- Hi, if anyone fancies doing it, I would like to request a version of this graphic that also shows the actual percentages of votes cast for each of the parties in the 2015 general election. I am envisaging that this could be done using some kind of colour-coded graphical symbol -- one that can be distinguished from the dots representing the polls -- placed at the extreme right of the existing graphic. There would also need to be a way of explaining the meaning in the caption (see existing caption at e.g. Opinion polling for the 2015 United Kingdom general election#Graphical summary). The actual numbers of votes cast for each of the parties are available here. The colour-coding used in the graphic is explained in the above-linked caption. BTW, I mentioned this request to the creator of the image, but no response.

TRAJAN 117: Okay, I found a reasonably similar schematic for the tank (an AMX-13 according to FOTW) that I traced and put in, but I can't find anything under Mirage that looks similar to the plane. There's also no information on the ship so I'm a bit clueless there. Let me know if you have more information that could help.

@ NikNaks: sent it to you.-- Antemister ( talk) 10:14, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you for the PDF. It is still not quite perfect as far as tracing is concerned, but it is at least much better than the other image we had. I've traced the remaining machines and added them to the image. If it is preferable to use the tank from the PDF as well, so that it is more consistent, I've included that in the file as well (just change the tank in x:href="#tank" to tank2. I'm not sure what else can be done on this without access to schematics of the machinery or access to a proper vector artist!

- Is it possible to use thinner contours for ship and plane? Now this is somewhat inconsistent in relation to the emblem. Could you add the fringe from File:Flag of the Vietnamese National Army.svg?-- Antemister ( talk) 21:41, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
@ Antemister: & @ NikNaks: looks great, many thanks. Note: the standard should have a 3:4 ratio. TRAJAN 117 ( talk) 03:06, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
- The thinner lines would require a manual trace that I don't really have the time or energy for at present. Anyone else is welcome to have a go, though. As for the fringe it seems like a lot of effort to try to include it, especially as it is such a huge file that it will likely crash my copy of Inkscape. I will, however, fix the dimensions.
