'''Request:'''
: It would be great to have a map showing Southern Britain during the early Pleistocene, when south-east Britain was still joined to the European continent, showing the ancient coastlines and rivers overlaid on a modern outline map, so that the ___location of the recently discovered [[Happisburgh footprints]] can be put in context. The type of map I have in mind is like that shown on the British Museum website [http://www.britishmuseum.org/research/research_projects/all_current_projects/featured_project_happisburgh/early_britain_happisburgh.aspx here], and should be fairly easy to create (but beyond my skills). I have been unable to find anything appropriate on Commons, but pleased let me know if such a map already exists there.

'''Request:'''
: If possible, please strengthen the contrasts at national borders. Until I viewed the map at 2000px resolution, I thought that San Marino had been omitted, because lower resolutions didn't display (at least that I could see) the border between San Marino and Italy. A change like this would presumably also make it a bit easier to see borders between larger countries. -- [[User:Nyttend|Nyttend]] ([[User talk:Nyttend|talk]]) 13:46, 7 December 2013 (UTC)

:::I have not done this well. The borders are now not all equally thick, because I have failed to find how some of them are controlled. Also, ''some'' coastlines are now black and thick, though it would be better if they weren't. I could wish that the svg was more structured, and contained a few comments - I guess Inkscape is responsible. The file is over 10,000 lines long, with no easy way to find which frontier is controlled by which lines of svg. [[User:Maproom|Maproom]] ([[User talk:Maproom|talk]]) 23:05, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

:I don't think it's Inkscape fault. When you save as Plain svg this is what happendes. All layers are removed but what was in one layer is grouped together. Sometimes it's better to save it as Inkscape to keep the layers for the next who will work on the file. --[[User:Goran tek-en|Goran tek-en]] ([[User talk:Goran tek-en|talk]]) 16:24, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for correcting my spelling, new version uploaded. I use Inkscape and it's all handmade. You can't use any tracing tool or things like that.

:{{u|EtienneDolet}} I like when maps/illustrations are, to me harmonic and beautiful, and I think grey fits more in in the overall picture. Then on the other hand it has to work for it's purpose also so have a look at [http://skulpturalasmycken.se/images/wikimedia/The%20City%20of%20Adana_black.svg this with black] and tell me which you want? --[[User:Goran tek-en|Goran tek-en]] ([[User talk:Goran tek-en|talk]]) 10:28, 22 February 2014 (UTC)
::{{u|Goran tek-en}} I think with the black font it will be more legible. Which is I think most important. I do agree however that the grey creates more harmony. But to me I would like it to be black so that people can read it at first sight. If you can please upload the black fonts that would be great. Thanks so much.

: I've been modifying the Neighborhoods of Boston article and would really appreciate an updated map of the neighborhoods based on the City of Boston's [http://www.cityofboston.gov/images_documents/Neighborhoods_tcm3-8205.pdf current map]. The gallery above has both the GIF used in the article and an SVG that appears to be the source for the GIF; I put both because I'm not sure which is easier to work with. The map in the article is missing Bay Village, West End, and Mid Dorchester; has Allston & Brighton as one combined neighborhood rather than two separate ones; and has mislabeled Fenway Kenmore as Fenway.
