Happy New Year!

Dear ZooFari/Archives/2010/January,
I just wanted to wish you and your family a happy new year, however you're celebrating it. Whether 2009 was a good year for you, or if it wasn't the greatest year, hopefully 2010 will be better. Cheers, and happy editing in 2010.

December21st2012Freak Happy New Year! at ≈ 00:24, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, you too :-) ZooFari 05:44, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

need some challenges to take your mind off the "Drama drama drama"?

Can I use your background-removal skills for these two?

Thanks again, and I am serious if you need a shoulder or a punching bag... Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 09:29, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Done and Done. BTW, don't get confused with "ZooPro" and "ZooFari", though we have gotten ourselves into awkward drama  :-) ZooFari 01:33, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
Thanks, sorry, I sensed a kinship, similar names, similar fonts... ;) You have a Happy New Year! ZooChris Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 08:03, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
I was just going to request File:Scouts y Guías Adultos de Argentina.jpg and File:People's Republic of Southern Yemen Guides Association.jpg for you. Best guess to complete the shape, work your magic, I trust you! :) Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 08:28, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
The second one is too low in quality and would end up worse. And I think someone handled Scouts y Guías Adultos de Argentina? ZooFari 05:45, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Can you remove the small chunks of blue between the fleur-del-lis petals and the trefoil on both sides? Thanks! Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 11:16, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
 Done. Let me know if that works. ZooFari 18:55, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Oh great graphic god powerfull and wise

can you help me by enlarging this[1] image and make it a vector (eps or svg or both) file and email it to me??? If not thats cool. Thanks in advance. ZooPro 06:52, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Done. How's that? --ZooFari 19:45, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for that ZooFari, in all the drama i forgot to thank you. ZooPro 23:47, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
The Graphic Designer's Barnstar
I award you this Barnstar for your outstanding work and assistance with images on Wikipedia. ZooPro 23:51, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
Thanks! --ZooFari 00:04, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

FYI

For your Information. [2] ZooPro 23:08, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Did i handle that correctly?? was i too harsh?? ZooPro 23:41, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

SVG edit

Can you make a version of File:Homicide rate by country.svg with non-modifiable text, please? ❄ upstateNYer ❄ 20:15, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Done. Let me know if that works, and have a happy new year :) ZooFari 05:43, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Could you make the size of the x-axis label ("Homidicde rate per 100,000 inhabitants (2004 estimate)") a size or two larger? I aim to replace File:Homicide rate by country.svg at United States#Crime and law enforcement, so when you upload, try a replacement to see how it looks. The current version is difficult to read, so base your decision on that. ❄ upstateNYer ❄ 06:59, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Non-modifiable version here too please? Thanks! ❄ upstateNYer ❄ 14:39, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Done. I uploaded the graph over the second file. Let me know if that works. ZooFari 18:46, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Looks good. Thank you much! upstateNYer 00:08, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Since you've been bothering me so much :) could you make a non-modifiable text version (which is the best thing since sliced bread, by the way) of File:RensselaerCountyNY.svg, upload it at Commons, and upload the original version at Commons too? Thank you! upstateNYer 02:47, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

The village names can be a bit bigger too; also the G in East Greenbush is slightly cut off. upstateNYer 02:48, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
Done and done. --ZooFari 03:19, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
Perfect. upstateNYer 04:26, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

New SVG

Think you can make an SVG of File:Brunswick New York with hamlets.png? You can replace File:Brunswick, New York Map2.svg with the new file, or even base it off that if you'd like. The road sign shields can, of course, be found at their respective articles. upstateNYer 07:42, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

 Done w/text versions. --ZooFari 03:19, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
Perfecto, gracias. upstateNYer 03:36, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for fixing the font issue on my SVG. Kmusser (talk) 19:12, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi. I noticed you removed the orphan tag from the article, but under what rationale? There is only one valid link to it so to me it is still an orphan. Would you consider adding the tag back? ArcAngel (talk) (review) 07:07, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

According to the criteria, it is recommended to only place the {{orphan}} tag if the article has ZERO incoming links from other articles. One or two incoming links may be sufficient as long as they're relevant. To me, the album article is quite relevant. You are right, it is still an orphan, but not sufficient enough for the orphan tag. --ZooFari 16:22, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Removal of orphan templates

I'm curious why you made this edit when it appears that the article is still an orphan according to the criteria. You also removed an orphan template with this edit and that article has only 1 incoming article link.--Rockfang (talk) 08:05, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

According to the criteria, it is recommended to only place the {{orphan}} tag if the article has ZERO incoming links from other articles. One or two incoming links may be sufficient as long as they're relevant. You are right, both are orphans but not sufficient enough for the orphan tag. --ZooFari 16:22, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

you are a graphic god!

Can you enlarge File:Iran Scout Organization 1980s.svg like you did with Burma?

I don't know if I've missed any to thank you for, please check out Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Scouting/Recognitions!

Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 06:00, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

 Done. You do a pretty awesome job with scouting as well :-) --ZooFari 06:25, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
  •  Done. --ZooFari 01:01, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
Perfect, thank you! Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 03:50, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
  • Like that? --ZooFari 01:17, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
Yep, except now it gets lost against the dark color background. Which do you like better? Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 03:50, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
Will get to these soon. --ZooFari 05:09, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

Thank you so much!

Never worry about delays, you are so helping us out! Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 09:48, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

These were brought back from Commons by a friend, but all as PNGs, I should have the licensing sorted out in a day or so, would you then snag those that are SVGs from Commons so we have the better one? The licensing would remain the same. Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 09:43, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
Ps-Cuban Girl Scouts-the white inner space should be blue, the outer black borders should be gold. Thanks! Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 09:47, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

You may be able to help here. For copyright reasons, these images should not be at Commons, but I don't know the procedure to move them from Commons back to useful en:wiki space:

My computer will not even allow SVGs. Please help if you can.--Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 18:48, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Your Valued picture candidate has been promoted

PNG licensing ready to SVG

Can you cut out the center disc to clear background? It's supposed to be a ring, not solid. --Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 04:08, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

NowCommons: File:Aerial Pickenham Airfield.jpeg

File:Aerial Pickenham Airfield.jpeg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:Aerial Pickenham Airfield.jpeg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:Aerial Pickenham Airfield.jpeg]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 21:02, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

Hello. There is already a vectorized image of this chemical compound. See File:Levorphanol.svg. Does it fill your purpose? I can still vectorize the the PNG image exactly as is and upload it as a second version (e.g. Levorphanol2.svg). Parutakupiu (talk) 22:27, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Same goes for File:Oxiracetam.svg. Parutakupiu (talk) 22:31, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for that vandalism revert on my talk page, wow first time my page has been vandalised. Thanks Again Mate, ZooPro 02:06, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

No problem. Cheers, --ZooFari 02:29, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Oops

Accidentally reverted your text on the IP vandal, was watching your page and reverted accidentally. --Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 02:26, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

No problem. Cheers, --ZooFari 02:29, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for tech help

Hi ZooFari,

You answered a question for me on Coldplay Expert's page. Thanks so much for the link to the page design center. I had no idea that existed. I really appreciate your help on that. If you ever need a favor, let me know. Thanks. :) Malke2010 00:22, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

Mentorship

I write because your name is listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject User Rehab. I wonder if you might consider joining others in sharing the burden of a mentorship committee for me?

Perhaps you might consider taking a look at an old edit at Wikipedia:Mentorship#Unintended consequences? In the search for a mentor deemed acceptable by ArbCom, I cite this as a plausible context for discussing what I have in mind.

Please contact me by e-mail or on my talk page. --Tenmei (talk) 06:01, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
