Graphist opinion(s):

I deleted a few stray paths that rsvg was rendering oddly, even though they didn't show in the raw svg, and it looks ok now, but...
There's still something odd about the file which shows up with very large thumbnail rendering. It seems ok up to about 1530px, which means it's fine for your much smaller use in the article, but can you tell us if you drew it yourself, or if not what was the source? I'd like to see if I can find out what's going on with it, because my fix seems to be a "band-aid" rather than a full fix. Thanks.

Article(s): Pit (botany)

Request:

I'm afraid that this is a rather complex request, so I'll hope that you'll see it as a challenge . Commons has a German-language schematic of a pit in plants, but I think that it's still unclear in some places. For starters, it isn't clear that each image consists of two illustrations: a cross-section to the left, and a face view to the right. Therefore, I would like to request a couple of things:
  • Of course, I'd like to request vectorisation (svg), because this will make it easier to work with the images.
  • In each image, I'd like both illustrations clearly labelled as 'cross-section' on the left and 'Face view' on the right. (In the example above I used the German words Durschschnitt and Ansicht.)
  • In the illustration to the right (face view/Ansicht), I'd like the oval figure to be completed, and filled in with the same pattern that is used in the left illustration. I guess the image needs to be widened a bit for this.
  • I would like the lines that aren't part of the illustration but only serve to link things (text with the illustration, the illustration on the left to the one on the right) to have a different colour from the ones that are part of the illustration.
  • I'd like for the term 'porus' to be placed in the middle between both illustrations, with lines linking it to both illustrations (see example above).
  • (Here is where it gets complicated ). I would like to request two images, one for conifers and another for broad-leaved plants. In the examples above I tried to explain the differences between both images.
  • I would like versions in three languages according to the following scheme:
English (en) German (de) Dutch (nl)
cross-section Durchschnitt doorsnede
face view Ansicht aanzicht
margo Margo margo
pit cavity Tüpfelkammer stippelholte
torus Torus torus
thickened rim Randwulst randverdikking
pore Porus porus
pit border Tüpfelhof stippelhof
pit membrane Mittelschicht sluitvlies
  • I'm still looking for a way in which we could illustrate the pit canal, and its inner and outer apertures, and also the radial lines that exist in coniferes. Let me think about this some more.
I hope this isn't too much to ask -- LeRoc (talk) 18:53, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

Image's request under progression Request taken. - yeah - I'll do this for you, LeRoc - it'll be tomorrow before I start it though. If you could give some colour indications for the actual elements in the meantime, that would help. Thanks. Begoon talk 20:02, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, and there's no hurry. To be honest, I don't have a very strong opinion on the colour scheme. It's not that we'll be trying to represent 'real' colours, the most important thing is that the image is clear. I have no problem in principle with the blue-granular pattern in the original image. I like what you did with the epigeal/hypogeal images: making the lines stronger and the colour brighter. Like I said, the important thing is clarity. LeRoc (talk) 10:36, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Great - I'll do it over the next couple of days, then. Would have started today, but that awkward other "real" life got in the way when my dishwasher broke and flooded the kitchen. All good now. . Begoon talk 12:44, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, real life has been busy for me too. Take your time, and good luck with your dishwasher. LeRoc (talk) 17:02, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, in the meantime, did you have any more thoughts on "I'm still looking for a way in which we could illustrate the pit canal, and its inner and outer apertures, and also the radial lines that exist in coniferes."? An image elsewhere, or a diagram? I googled a bit - but not really sure what I'm looking for - I've got some pine trees in the yard and my 10 year old has a toy microscope if that helps...(just kidding) . Begoon talk 18:23, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, maybe I'm coming up with an idea. The pit canal is the roughly cilindrical canal that goes from one pore to the other. The question is how we can render this three-dimensional concept without complicating the picture too much. Maybe with some kind of shading? Give me some time, and I'll try to give some kind of graphical rendering of what I'm thinking about. Any help of your 10 year old will of course be greatly appreciated LeRoc (talk) 19:11, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nah - making something look "a bit 3d" without complicating the illustration is easy. Just describe what, and where (which you kind of already did - I just haven't looked at it yet). And you kid, but I gave her Adobe Illustrator on her laptop 4 weeks ago, and she's already drawing things I'm in awe of. Kids, you see, and computer affinity... Begoon talk 19:24, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The next time I don't have an answer straight away about which colour I'd like for a certain item, we'll know whom to ask . What's important for me in the picture is to make a distinction between what is 'real' and what is just a line or an arrow pointing at something. This is very unclear to me in the original picture. (I first thought that the part on the right of the picture was some kind of 3d structure attached to the part on the left.) We'll have to take that into account if we make something look "a bit 3d" too. LeRoc (talk) 19:42, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
That's helpful. I'll start drawing it tomorrow - it's always easier to talk about once you're looking at something. Begoon talk 19:52, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. I propose that we'll start looking at the pit canal etc. when we have a first version of the picture ready. That will give us a better idea of what will work and what won't. LeRoc (talk) 22:19, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't forgotten this - in fact I started it, but got crazy busy. Sorry - hopefully have something to look at tomorrow. Begoon talk 08:40, 4 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, I can wait. I can inform you that I've figured out a way to illustrate the pit canal and its inner and outer apertures. If you don't mind, I prefer to wait until you come up with a basic image, because this will allow me to explain better what I have in mind. LeRoc (talk) 13:42, 4 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, sorry, all I've got today is excuse 4. Really have been very busy, but I've set time aside for this tomorrow, and absolutely promise to do it then... Funny thing is it won't actually take too long, but stuff keeps getting in the way. My apologies, LeRoc. Begoon talk 10:21, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The flags seems to have many versions. I realized that the inscription on the flag above is likely unclear.

There is also a version of the flag with no inscription and the handle of the sword on this image is yellow not brown. --Hariboneagle927 (talk) 14:15, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Do you know what the inscription says? It might be easier to recreate if we had text for it and a relevant font/character set in the absence of a clearer original. The flag is easy enough, but the inscription is a bit trickier - not impossible, but hard to know you're getting it right without a comparison. Begoon talk 18:45, 19 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I removed your "resolved" tag, because I'd prefer the requester to indicate they are satisfied with this. Although I can't read the text I can see several differences between what's in this svg and what's on the bitmap(s). If it turns out we're happy with that text, I'll redraw the rest of the flag because the shapes need regularising and tidying up. Otherwise maybe we should continue to use the bitmaps. If we can't produce an svg that is superior to the bitmap versions, I see little point in us doing it, which is why I, and I guess others, haven't so far.

Hmmm... Ok... But as I can read the text, both are equally legible to me (though this needs much understanding of Islamic calligraphy; it reads لا الہ الا اللہ محمد رسول اللہ). My problem is that I do not have the technical know-how to manually fix the text to make it more clear. What we can do is to create the rest of the flag by hand and then add the best auto-traced version of the text to it.—ШαмıQ✍ @ 17:06, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No - we don't need to auto trace anything - if that's the correct text we can add it to a properly drawn base flag using the right font, then convert to outlines.
However, before we do, a couple of points - firstly, did you look at all the images linked in the discussion above? There are several. There's a much better original for the sword - and secondly, why does the text look different in the other linked images? Does it say the same thing? And if not, which version do we use? Begoon talk 17:32, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yup, all the texts effectively read the same. But the positioning of the words in one of the images linked here ([2]) is different from the other two (flag.svg and [3], which are both almost the same). Of these two sets, the first one is easier to create using regular Arabic fonts. I am afraid there won't be any font available which can stack up letters/words (either vertically or horizontally) as is done in the second set of images.—ШαмıQ✍ @ 08:34, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Sorry for the late reply. As per discussion above, it would certainly better if the text is made more legible at least.--Hariboneagle927 (talk) 09:28, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What about this version? (Though I know it's not good at all...)—ШαмıQ✍ @ 22:55, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The inscription looks clearer (though I can only trust you it's correct.) You've copied the colours from the gif - in all the photographs the yellow seems less "orangey", and the star doesn't touch the crescent (although it's different sizes). The sword handle might be better with the "striped" hilt than what we have here, as the photos show. But since there are different versions, that doesn't mean what you have done is "wrong" - I just would have maybe done it differently.
Because your file still needs "tidying up, I'll have a go at an alternative later, using your inscription, if you like. Begoon talk 07:51, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
As you wish... Go ahead with it.—ШαмıQ✍ @ 08:01, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. There's more point now that you've managed to clarify the text. We couldn't have done much, really, if you hadn't been able to do that. I'll try to have a go later today, but if not it will be tomorrow - and thanks again for the work you've done - it was the most important and difficult part. Begoon talk 08:23, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Glad I could help. —ШαмıQ✍ @ 08:44, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ok - I quickly redrew it based on the simplest photo: here, and incorporating your text. It's far from perfect, in fact I pretty much hate it - but at least it's all simple shapes if anyone wants to get creative and resize/position it or recolour it/change elements based on the other photos. Linked above as plan "Z" because it's the last thing I'd call good. Anything will be a compromise with all these versions, though... Begoon talk 11:07, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I made some minor tweaks to the flag based on the images. I have scaled the sword and crescent and made the red "warmer" based on other image sources. Well, I believe this would do for now and thanks to those who help.--Hariboneagle927 (talk) 14:58, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please vectorize the image, crop excess whitespace, transparent background -- Hariboneagle927 (talk) 08:06, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

Someone else might want to redraw that as a vector - I don't really think it's necessary or even desirable, though.
There's a huge jpeg version available at http://ufl.ph/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/lbc-ufl-logo1.jpg (but you have to dig it out from their js gallery viewer to find it...)
Personally, I think Ufl logo.png, which is taken from there, converted to png, cropped and given a transparent background, and scaled to NFCC permitted size should be adequate - and certainly accurate.
I replaced the poor quality jpeg in the article with the good png for now. Begoon talk 12:49, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Essentially, I'd like for this to be redrawn as two images. The first, showing P-conservation, the second, showing P-violation. The caption (Clock, Mirror Clock) and (P-conservation / P-violation) can be included, but it would probably be better to simply omit them for the non-English wikis. The important elements are the clocks themselves, the numbers (12/3/6/9, and their mirrored version), and the hands' direction. Feel free to add the other hours, or to stylize the clocks however you like. If possible, the hand's direction should be color coded (same color for both clocks directions in P-conservation, but the mirror clock direction should have a different color than the regular clock in P-violation).
File names could be "P-conservation clock.svg" and "P-violation clock.svg", or anything similar. You can delete my image after you're done.Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 23:30, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
