:::Jackaranga, May you please use a neutral point of view against me instead of calling me a "reputable editor". I am trying to help. Also, the original version of the map, the one you pointed out, include the [[SeaBus]], the [[West Coast Express]], and the pointers for the expansions/projects. So I made the one I am requesting for conversion just to remove those. I also don't know how to make an SVG file. All I'm saying is please use a neutral point of view and language. Thank You.
By the way, thanks to J.smith for fixing the licensing/source info. -- <

'''Request:''' This 8-panel comic strip is not only a bit graphic content-wise but is too busy for the infobox. Please pull the 4th frame out as a solo. That is, the second row down and on the right side showing the protagonist firing a weapon with the words ''STU-TU-TUNF''. If this could be made a single frame as well as improved, a bit sharper and any other clean-up it would be super-duper! We'll use the 8-panel version further down in the article. Thank you!!!!

**Nope, it just happens that like everyone else here we're volunteers. Since no graphist has decided to take on this task as of yet, it is incomplete. Since this seems like a fairly simple crop job you may be interested in trying the crop yourself. We have a list of free image software that our graphists recommend [[Wikipedia:Graphic Lab/Resources/Software|here]]. Hope this message is helpful.
