Carteret Islands

Article(s): Carteret Islands

Request: Rotate the image about 70 degrees clockwise so north is at the top... Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 10:32, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): Not a simple and straight-forward job. The rotation is, but an awful lot of sea and clouds would need to be cloned in order to fill out the gaps once the rotation is completed. --Fred the Oyster (talk) 13:41, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Or just leave it as blank space for now, we'll see what it looks like at that point. Cheers. --Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 13:40, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Coat of Arms of Yugoslav Kingdom

Article(s): Kingdom of Yugoslavia

Request: Hi to all. Actually, wiki has the image above as CoA of the K. of Yugoslavia. However, how it can be seen [1], [2], [3], [4], the real CoA was more simple, and the crown was a bit different. Can anybody solve the problem? Thanks. 95.237.154.119 (talk) 17:35, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

Article(s): 1980s

Request: Need help removing the spaces between the shapes. TheCuriousGnome (talk) 18:10, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion: I'm afraid there are more problems to this image than just the distance between letters. The gradient is showing significant banding with obvious paths between each shade change. Additionally the licensing of the image is way off. This is a screenshot from a well known movie. The image you have chosen is iconic of that movie, also are you aware that when a movie is copyrighted, every single frame of that film holds that self-same copyright? --Fred the Oyster (talk) 18:24, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Are you sure it still falls under the movie's copyright, if the logo is fully extracted from the frame? After all, you could derive it from a multitude of other sources as well. I think it can/should be viewed as a separate copyright entity. But I'm no copyright expert, of course. As for the SVG – I think the logo should be either re-traced by hand or be cleaned up and made a bitmap image. Right now it's a terrible mess. —Quibik (talk) 19:16, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I assumed it was OK after I saw this image. There was a deletion debate over the Star Wars Logo.svg and it resultd on a majority agreeing to keep it based on {{PD-textlogo}}. The source of the original image from which the SVG was generated was a promotion poster. TheCuriousGnome (talk) 19:36, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
OK. I tried to redo it in a more simplistic way. I am attaching the original jpg just in case any one can do a better job. TheCuriousGnome (talk) 21:51, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
