Request: SVG ification. Arrange. Wheat, star, moon, shield, plume in coat of arms. Animal is wolf.--Lord Leatherface (talk) 20:53, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion: This request is already on this page. --SelfQ (talk) 21:19, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That request appears to have disappeared (Probably as "stale"). 68.39.174.238 (talk) 17:30, 17 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have been looking for a very long time for another version of this image. it would seem that there is none. The shiled itself is an easy part to do, the only main problem ( and the reason why it has not been done) is becouse of the seal bellow the shield and the wheat/feathers arround it. they are no clear enough nor there is a clear text (that i can read) in wich it describes what it should contain. so there is no way to realistically retrace it as svg -LadyofHats (talk) 11:20, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Could someone do the shield, at least (Since that seems easy), so when a better resolution image turns up, the rest can be done fairly easily? 68.39.174.238 (talk) 01:14, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There's the shield. The rest is definitely not discernible. --pbroks13talk? 06:26, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request: Given the nice result of the first try, could you convert the *pdf given above into an *svg and color the segments like shown in the *png?Jasy jatere (talk) 16:02, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just notice that the content in the pdf must be reduced to the table as well, the first two letters are not necessaryJasy jatere (talk) 16:02, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion: How's that? --pbroks13talk? 23:55, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

looks good. There are some details which could be improved.
  • last character in the k-row, red part: only the bottom "bowl" thick like that, the rest of the red part must be much thinner. Compare the different thickness of lines for p
  • the two red characters in the l row have to have a hair stroke on the left, which is very thin. you can use the right column of this table http://www.omniglot.com/images/writing/sinhala_cons.gif as a model.
  • for k and r, the pdf has lines of different thickness as well. Could you try to catch that in an svg?
  • the r (6) seems unbalanced and very "hand-written", which has to do with line weight as well, I think
Thanks for you help! Jasy jatere (talk) 10:40, 9 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'd started a work on it but hadn't had a chance to upload until now. I've used the unicode characters from the Sinhala alphabet page (specifically p, k, r and ḷ from the consonants table and the a, u and ū from the vowels table. However, as you can see in the svg above I haven't completed the ku and kū because I can't see which characters in the table match the shapes in the pdf. Do you know which shape it should be, or if it is even in those tables, part of another character, etc? — ₪₪ ch1902 ₪₪ 11:19, 9 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
for Lu/Luu, you can use the shapes provided for ä/ää.
for ku/kuu, there are no shapes you could copy in the imgs. The hook for short u is very similar to a Latin 'c'. The hook for uu varies, but if you take the right part of ruu and clip the 'tail' and bend it and then scale the whole thing down, you come close to it (hope that was clear ...)
Lu/Luu are missing the hairstroke on the left
smaller notes: the right arm of p should not touch the belly
The relative differences in thickness seem a bit too much, the thick parts can become a bit less Jasy jatere (talk) 12:56, 9 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
got inkscape and meddled a bit with the img. The L's are fine now. I do not know how to 'cut' stuff, so the red parts for ku and kuu still have their topmost line, which should probably deleted. The z-like part in kuu, ruu and Luu needs to be thicker, but I do not know how to do that either, so I would appreciate help there Jasy jatere (talk) 00:03, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request: -- make into an SVG Thisglad (talk) 10:23, 6 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion: How would that do? --pbroks13talk? 07:27, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's excellent. Well done. Is it possible to add the the curved arrow next to number 1 or is that too complicated for an SVG? Thisglad (talk) 07:34, 18 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. I was reading the FP review for the original image, and there was some question of whether or not the arrow should be there. Either way, hows that? --pbroks13talk? 07:55, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Not my request, but did you leave out the "scroller"(geesh lol) on purpose? It's between the two buttons, can't think of a technical name. §hep¡Talk to me! 13:23, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I was going to add it... but I got really frustrated at is (because the lighting wasnt working for me), so I left it out. Do you think it is really needed? --pbroks13talk? 04:52, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
thanks for adding that, I'm also not sure how needed that arrow is but felt that others might object to the difference. Can you add a shadow to svg similar to the shadow in the PNG? Thisglad (talk) 00:33, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
How's that? --pbroks13talk? 04:52, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That's great, would it be to much trouble to add a mouse wheel? thanks again. Thisglad (talk) 08:24, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

(undent)Not sure if these would help with the center wheel: Image:Souris schema svg.svg or Image:Mouse buttons.svg. Although It appears they might both use the same wheel? and this one Image:Input-mouse.svg §hep¡Talk to me! 20:43, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Eh, not so much. The angle is completely different. I tried to make one. What do you think? --pbroks13talk? 17:28, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Well, it is passed as a FP, so I am assuming this is resolved. --pbroks13talk? 19:25, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
