Request: Vectorize.

The enveloping on the MADAGASIKARA word is pretty bad, since I couldn't get Skencil to work and Inkscape has no vertical-skew-text-on-path kind of thing. Could someone fix that, and make the bold letters one the side better? Thanks. --Sn1per (talk) 16:52, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have the GIS data, but the shp2svg converter won't work. --Sn1per (talk) 02:33, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I finally got the converter to work. I'll color the map now. Do you want the whole map of just the southern part, and do you want numbers in the map (like this region is 1 and in the caption it says 1 is this region) or do you want the names of the regions in the map? --Sn1per (talk) 17:26, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If there is the northern part you should include itl Numbers shouldn't be there preferably. Thank you.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 18:14, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have a complete list of where each Ahupua'a is? 'cause the converter didn't include what each region was, and the gif only has the bottom part. --Sn1per (talk) 18:23, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
In fact, the data includes the whole state of Hawaiʻi! I think I should focus on this map, though. --Sn1per (talk) 21:32, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
What data or converter are you talking about? I found these really low resolution ones [1] and [2]. If you can't read them just create the south. Also can you address the new request I have down at the bottom.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 00:12, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
This data and this converter. --Sn1per (talk) 01:02, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I don't undertstand either of those things. Honestly don't put too much work into this. My original request was just to turn the background transparent. --KAVEBEAR (talk) 01:20, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps you need to delete all the other version and then reupload the flag, even the civil ensign?! Drax90 (talk) 13:12, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
What do you mean? The new flag has been reuploaded over the old one. It's just that I forgot to refresh my browser. Do you mean that you want the new flag as an alt or something? --Sn1per (talk) 17:20, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Some REALLY old images


Article(s): Category:User-created public domain images from May 2004 - The graphics are all ancient (still useful) relics from this category.

Request: Is it possible for someone to convert these old files to vector images? I'd like to ship them out to Commons in order to kill this old category (May 2004, honestly), but I feel that it would be better to put them in a vector format first. ♠PMC(talk) 21:13, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Correct font on seals

Resolved
 – Sn1pe! (talk)

Article(s): Multiple

Request: If anybody here is good with fonts and text, I would really appreciate help in correcting the inscriptions of these two seals. Their sources are 1 and 2. A buddy was able to do an attempt at the font on the Senate Seal with trace-work, but if anybody knows the real font (or a very close cousin perhaps?) used, that would be brilliant. The Governor's seal, my buddy believes is some sort of Times New Roman, but when you enlarge the image, it looks similar to the font used on the Senate Seal.

You're gonna hate me, but could you do the Senate one's wording in bold? It looks too thin. Fry1989 eh? 02:58, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I knew you were going to say that, heheheh. Unfortunately the font I found doesn't have a bold variant. I can keep looking for another one, but it took me ages to find that one! --The Pink Oboe (talk) 08:07, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
This one better? I'm still working on the other one. They aren't the same font, but what is causing problems identifying it is that damn bevel on the plaque in the photo. I've narrowed it down to about 3 or 4 fonts that are similar. When I get a chance I'll do some tests to see which looks best on the screen. --The Pink Oboe (talk) 14:38, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes much, thank you for humouring a perfectionist/nut ;). Take your time on the Governor's one, there's no rush. I'm just grateful the request has been taken. Fry1989 eh? 20:15, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Pink Oboe, if you're still having trouble figuring out the font for the Governor, I wouldn't be opposed to you using either of the two you used for the Senate. Both look very similar to the image. Fry1989 eh? 04:22, 27 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
