Watermark for removal

Can't say I spotted that, actually, but I've cloned it out by assuming that what's next to it continues unchanged to the edge. It looks reasonable to me, but if it's not acceptable please feel free to revert.  —SMALLJIM  10:24, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mir node interior

edit
  Resolved

Article(s): Mir

Request: Watermark removal Hi folks! I've got this image of the interior of Mir, which was taken on STS-84 and as such is a NASA public domain image. Unfortunately, as NASA isn't exactly hot at updating its pages about old missions, it's not very high-res. There's a higher-res version of this on the Life website here, but unfortunately it's got a watermark on it (it's printed in Hall, R. editor. The History of Mir 1986-2000. London: British Interplanetary Society; 2000 without the watermark). If someone could please download a copy of the Life image, remove the watermark and upload it over the lower res image, I'd be very grateful. Thanks in advance, Colds7ream (talk) 14:49, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

  Done Removed the watermark and uploaded it as a new image (besides being higher-resolution, I don't find the Life image to be that much better). —Quibik (talk) 16:58, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks very much - why didn't you just upload it over the old image, though? :-S Colds7ream (talk) 17:10, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for not adhering to your request. IMHO the Life version, while being higher-resolution, is somewhat blurry and not that much clearer. Also, its color balance and contrast look much weaker to me. So I would use the NASA version in an article (where it is downscaled anyway), but keep the Life version as a larger alternative. —Quibik (talk) 18:07, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough! Thanks again for sorting this out! :-) Colds7ream (talk) 18:14, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Great, thanks!--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 02:44, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry to be nitpicking, but... Kintetsubuffalo, you have requested the borders to be removed from quite a few city montages citing "WPMOS" as the reason. I am not aware of such guideline existing and searching did not help either. The most applicable guideline Wikipedia:Image use policy#Collages and montages does not mention this nor do any more general ones. I'm asking this because, personally, I find the borders in these images to be quite suitable, especially the inner ones. Obviously they are there to serve a function: they help keep the images visually separate. So, what MoS article are you referring to? —Quibik (talk) 20:38, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Trying to find it, it was something brought to my attention maybe a year and a half ago. I didn't know it previously. The border removal template itself says "Where borders are desired they should be added with wikimarkup or code." so it's here somewhere, I have seen it, just gotta find it. In the meantime, I understand what you are saying, but the montages are not uniformly done-some have thick borders, some thin, some already none at all before I found them. Whatever is done, there should be standardization. I'll keep looking.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 02:44, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the clarification. I hope you can find it.
About standardizing the look of the montages... Coincidentally, a while ago I spent some time developing User:Quibik/Montage template so a montage could be created from standalone images. This is obviously still very raw, but when developed further, perhaps this could be useful for this purpose? —Quibik (talk) 20:30, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Make diagram more readable

edit
  Resolved

Article(s): Painted turtle

Request: Please clean up in any way that makes it easier to see the image. Suggest:

  • Cut the middle black line.
  • Cut the "a" and "b".
  • Move the code labels on the bottom up closer to the shells
  • [EDIT] Let's please just cut the entire left "a" diagram. Take notches out of the right bottom 6 and the right top 2. Which gives us coded sample 9,3-6,2. (Just think for our use a single example is more efficient.)

(Consider, but not crucial)

  • If you think it should be vectorized, go ahead
  • I sorta "like" the wavy hand drawn look of the diagram, but feel free to redraw in any manner that does not change the basic anatomy or the "code". Can even change which divots are selected (i.e. coded examples), if desired, but no need.
  • If possible, if we could somehow make the numbers on the outer segments a little bigger (can expand the segment size a little if needed). Also make the notches a little more prominent.

  • Like how we got rid of wasted space around the diagram.
  • Can we get rid of the checkerboard background?
  • We need some "notches cut out" of the numbered scutes. Need people to see that the turtle is actually being disfigured. I'm thinking if you can pick one different number from each "quadrant", that would work best, so that I can describe the code in caption. Probably 8 and 7 on the bottom, and 2 and 3 on the top. But does not matter exactly.
 
See, no checkerboard!
The checkerboard is just the default background for vector graphics that aren't set against anything. When you actually see the image in an article, it looks significantly less checkery. As for the notches, you'd like one notch each in Top Left 2, Top Right 3, Bottom Left 8, and Bottom Right 7? BobAmnertiopsisChatMe! 04:30, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Ahh...figured it was something like that on the chess board. Um...yes please on the notches. You can look at the original and see some (doesn't matter if they are triangle or square shaped notches, both are used) That's how they know what turtle it is 50 years later (literally a study has gone that long, and there was a turtle that old!)
Okay, top left 3 and bottom left 9 are scute'd. How's it look? BobAmnertiopsisChatMe! 23:51, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's good that you just clipped two (code 9,3-0,0). Please make the notches larger.TCO (talk) 02:03, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Would you like me to put the code back in too? After glancing at the article, it seems important. BobAmnertiopsisChatMe! 04:51, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
OK. Please write it as 9,3-0,0 though (better clarity). And put it closer to the shell (old version wastes too much space).TCO (talk) 05:19, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
How about now? Voila! BobAmnertiopsisChatMe! 22:41, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Perfect! Thanks for the extensive fiddling with such an image. Great addition to a great article! Love getting help from the experts!

Request: Please, remove the frame and background of all pictures and make it translucid. The first painting of Prince Afonso already has a (worse) .png version [1] as well as the one with Pedro II as an infant [2], so you may simply upload the new pictures over both.

  Done: Done as requested. PawełMM (talk) 15:10, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

PawełMM, Teresa Cristina's and Afonso's paintings still have their blue background. They were not removed. Also, is it possible to make all of them as you did with the painting of Pedro II as an adult? Is quite odd to see these squares all over the pictures, even though they actually do not appear in the article. But I believe the painting should be available even to users outside Wikipedia. Lastly, there is no need to change the contrast in Afonso's image. Regards, --Lecen (talk) 15:18, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  Redone: Alpha channel added. PawełMM (talk) 22:36, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, PawełMM, I may have not been clear enough. All I want is that you do with the other paintings what Fallschirmjäger did in File:Pedro II of Brazil 1846 by Rugendas.png. That is: no change to the painting, but the background removed and translucid. --Lecen (talk) 22:45, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
