Request: Redraw as SVG.--Kkm010 | Talk with me 12:51, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

There's a discussion right now on the talk page about requests similar to this. No consensus has been reached on wording as yet, but since you are posting a number of requests of this nature, I'll post the latest proposed text here for you to have a look at. The discussion is at this link....

The vector versions of non-free images like company logos and other items need careful handling. Graphists at the lab cannot always convert a raster file (JPEG, GIF or PNG) to SVG. A manual re-draw of the logo is likely to result in an inaccurate version of the logo and this may lead to copyright violation! Thus, searching for an official version of the vector image is very important. Often, the vector version of a company logo is posted on the company's website such as an SVG, AI, CDR or EPS file. In other instances, vector logos can be found embedded within PDF documents since PDFs support vector graphics. Using the advanced search option in Google, can help finding PDF documents (Use the "File type" and "Search within a site or domain" tools). To confirm the presence of a vector logo in a PDF file, zoom several times into the logo and check for the absence of pixels. Upon finding a PDF with vector logo, use a vector graphic editor such as Inkscape to extract the vector file from the PDF source. If you do not know how to do this using a vector graphic editor, make a request here at the lab and include the URL of the PDF source or other vector source. A graphist will assist you in the process.

how long shall it take to convert into svg format.--Kkm010 | Talk with me 14:41, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll take a look, but no promises. Connor mah 15:02, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not done - cannnot locate any official vector sources, sorry. Connor mah 21:53, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done [for IPL]: Manual trace of GIF image. gringer (talk) 04:40, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The second logo cannot be converted by hand and maintain its integrity. I would also note that that is an outdated logo, a 2010 version uses the color of the South African flag instead of the Indian one. §hep ^Talk 23:13, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Article(s): BBC World News and CNN International

Request: Vectorize.--Kkm010 | Talk with me 09:58, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): Done The BBC logo, that look okay? §hep ^Talk 01:51, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As for the CNN one, I highly doubt a vector exists - it'd simply be too complex as the globe is a raster image. The PNG is fine. Connor mah 03:22, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please give a try I'm sure you can do it. The svg format of CNN logo can't be found its hard to believe.--Kkm010 | Talk with me 06:17, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If you can show me a vector version of the CNN international logo hidden in a PDF somewhere I'd be happy to rip it and convert it. Connormah is right that creating the globe in SVG by hand would be difficult and most likely result in some legality issues. The CNN logo as a raster is only being used on 2 pages and they both look fine/not pixelated. §hep ^Talk 18:04, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You could embed the globe as a raster image in the SVG file. gringer (talk) 12:54, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

True, but I think the PNG is fine - the file would probably be huge as well with an embedded raster. Connor mah 19:46, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done: Added SVG file with embedded PNG (screenshot from NASA World Wind). I could reduce the size of this if necessary, because at the nominal resolution, the globe's got about 3 times the resolution it needs to. gringer (talk) 07:48, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Two issues. One is that I see nothing gained from having vector letters when the rasters scale well. Second is that the globe image is different from what CNN uses, using a different one most likely infringes on whatever rights they hold to the image. §hep ^Talk 13:18, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with that. What may be even more relevant is http://edition.cnn.com/CNNI . Seems the current logo is white on red with no colour in the globe anyway. (unless this is just for historical purposes) Begoon^talk 02:28, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

FWIW, just the 'CNN' part has already been done. I think if this is for CNN International, then it should probably be the current logo, rather than an old logo. gringer (talk) 10:52, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The globe involved in the CNN logo is not something that can be vectorized while still maintaining its integrity. §hep ^Talk 23:17, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Me too, those are fantastic, thank you!--Chris (クリス • フィッチ) (talk) 13:44, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

For Monaco, the content of the coat of arms is not the same : do you know if we can find the buglars somewhere ? Arnaud Ramey (talk) 13:51, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I had a quick search, and I can't find those sneaky little buglers either. Maybe you don't need them? These people don't use them on the one they sell: <commercial link now removed - in history...>. Begoon^talk 14:47, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done Well, I remade the coat of arms from scratch. It is not perfect, leave some feedback !

It's truly outstanding (150 points out of a possible 100) I think the curtain is red, but you couldn't lose any points on such a fine piece of work... Begoon^talk 11:44, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's wonderful, thank you! These arms all date from the Middle Ages, so there is no set form.--Chris (クリス • フィッチ) (talk) 14:16, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hum, you won't like my contribution, but as a fond of horses, I have to act ! This is a horseshoe, and usually they look like this File:Eisentorschmuck_Hufeisen_01.jpg. We can distinguish the rabbet in the COA. Well, otherwise we can still say and suppose horseshoes were looking differently in the middles ages ! ;) Arnaud Ramey (talk) 14:44, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It looks great so far. I also converted the Burmese text on the seal to work with Zawgyi font, since true Unicode fonts for Burmese don't seem to work the programs used to make SVG files. It's below:
