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. --pbroks13^talk? 06:26, 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: The PNG is public domain (U.S. Gov). Looks ideal for converting into an SVG file. -- Kaldari (talk) 23:55, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion: I've had a good go at this one, but the resolution of the image is simply too low to get anything usable. I've also had a look at the source but I can't extract anything from that of significantly better quality. If all you want is a very abstracted view of the main chambers only (the colored bits) it would be possible to create that from scratch. The fine detail underneath the processor, however, is virtually unreadable even when magnified. Debate 木 12:28, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Is that stuff down there absolutely critical? EG. I can tell that one part of it is a stairwell, which isn't very helpful other than giving scale... 68.39.174.238 (talk) 03:22, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

According to the diagram there appears to be a range of other mechanical bits and pieces (motor, shale feed, riding rings, etc), in addition to some of the internal detail, that are too blurry to easily convert to SVG. Whether they are critical to the diagram or not is something only Kaldari can answer. Debate 木 08:58, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think those pieces are really critical to the diagram. Have a go at a simplified version and I'll let you know if anything really important is missing. Thanks! Kaldari (talk) 20:19, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

One way of getting four differently-coloured regions to each border one another
Another way of doing the same thing

Article(s): List of sets of countries that border one another

Request: These two images are fine, but we could do with a third to represent a third way of drawing shapes such that you can get four colours to border one another (per four colour theorem. That is, a circle split in to two differently-coloured regions horizontally, entirely contained within a concentric circle which is split into two differently-coloured regions vertically - similar to the two images we've got already but formed differently. It's far easier to get the concept across in an image than in text as you can perhaps tell.

If possible, it'd be quite useful if the remaining maps could be made as well, per the style used on that article for the examples cited. Thanks, Pfainuk talk 18:02, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
