Cycle Hire scheme[edit]

Any chance of a userbox for the various Cycle Hire schemes (or just a generic one?)Davoloid (talk) 12:14, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sure I can make you one up - what should it say? We could do a generic style one or something more specific. - Ahunt (talk) 12:47, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

How about "This user is a member of the [city] cycle hire scheme" with the logo on the left? The London one (without "Barclays") is in the middle of whilst the Velib one is in that article too. But there's so many now, perhaps a generic one would be better? Davoloid (talk) 15:44, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The only complication with logos is that they are copyrighted and so can't be used in user boxes as per Wikipedia:USERBOX#Caution_about_image_use. Any other preferences for an image? - Ahunt (talk) 15:51, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This image is CC licensed, mods allowed, and I could blur the logos and if that's still an issue in the scaled and cropped image. What size do you need? Davoloid (talk) 09:38, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That image looks fine - it just needs to be uploaded to Commons and then we can use it, or if you prefer you could pick out an existing commons image, like one of these. - Ahunt (talk) 11:35, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
