'''Request:''' Is there a way to reduce the noise in this picture? I was asked to make this request during my good article nomination of the ''Blue Gardenia'' article. This image is currently used in three articles.

Once an image file has noise introduced into it, you basically have two choices... noisy or blurry. The most common method for "fixing" a grainy image is to apply some manner of smoothing filter to it. Noise is smoothed away (more or less), but now it's blurry. Personally I don't think that's an improvement so you won't find me doing it much. It's like painting a face on a horses ass. It's still a horses ass... only now it looks like someone tried to paint a face on it. So my advice is to either deal with the grainy photo... or look for a better one.

Well, the license on those is awfully sketchy; unless you can prove that they're definitively free-use and not fair use (and since they were taken from an outside source, free use is not entirely likely because the photographer has copyright even though the coins themselves are PD-1923) I'm not touching them. But if you think they're okay, then get a [http://toolserver.org/~magnus/tusc.php TUSC] account and use [http://toolserver.org/~magnus/commonshelper.php Commonshelper].

'''Request:''' {{diff|Talk:India|456804061|456794816|Please see this comment.}} I'm wondering if a new cropped version of this image—at a difference filename, perhaps "Taj Mahal, Agra, India edit3.jpg"—could lop off enough of the sky and sides so that the image obeys the [[rule of thirds]] and adheres to classical Renaissance proportioning WRT positioning of the vanishing point. The framing of the end result could more resemble that in

::One of my favorite quotes is ''"Rules are for when the brains gives out."'' If we followed the rule of thirds exactly, we would have lopped off the top of the main dome. If we bent the rules and used the main platform of the structure as the horizon, the photo would still be cropped right at the top of the main spire. Personally I don't think that would look so hot. So we fiddle and adjust and come up with something that looks generally pleasing... not too high, not too low, not to far and not too near. And exactly centered, which I believe makes a big difference. This was the result. (The photo was already rotated to perfectly level and was taken from the precise center of the scene... that makes a big aesthetic difference as well.)

=='''CAUTION''': Grand coat of arms of the Empire of Brazil (Restored Version)==
{{resolved}}
Excuse me but you're wrong!
'''Article(s):''' [[Empire of Brazil]]
'''''Request:''' Please, remove the two crossing scepters in the coat of arms. They did not exist back then. Also, the green fabric in the crown is supposed to be red, such as [[:File:Brazilimperialblason2.svg|in this picture]]. If possible, create the newer version in another file. Thank you very much, [[User:Lecen|Lecen]] ([[User talk:Lecen|talk]]) 10:56, 10 November 2011 (UTC)''
'''Response:''' The crest of the version presented is the 2nd Empire: Emperor Dom Pedro II. And yes the two scepters are provided. Another point: the imperial crown of Brazil has green cloth. The red version're spread coat is an adaptation of the Crown Prince of Portugal (Prince of Brazil), designed by the painter Jean-Baptiste Debret, which was later replaced by the Imperial Crown of Brazil, this one in green cloth as the flag of the Empire of Brazil on display at the Imperial Museum of Petrópolis.Another source that can be used in reference to the color of the fabric is available in the carriage of the Emperor Dom Pedro II exposed in the same imperial museum.

:::Your original request was a bit unclear to me as I did not notice the link to the Princess Maria image and thus thought you were referring to the Franz Josef image.

I'm curious... I see two uploads from you minutes apart on Nov 9. The first was the original at 3.92 MB, then you overwrote it with seemingly the same file at 1.12 MB. Is there any difference between the files other than resaving at a higher jpg compression? Also, the stated [http://www.wrongsideoftheart.com/wp-content/gallery/posters-p/plan_9_from_outer_space_poster_01.jpg source] of the image is different than your upload. You modified the original before uploading it? I ask because your uploaded version is pretty heavily contrasted compared to the source. And lastly, since we already have a nice image of [[:File:Plan nine from outer space.jpg|this movie poster]] that is used in the article, why would we bother screwing around with this one? [[User:Jbarta|JBarta]] ([[User talk:Jbarta|talk]]) 18:48, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
:*If I remember correctly, the first file showed up as failed last time. The brighter movie poster is because that's what the original was, based on a look at Amazon and other film poster sellers.

::All in all, this is a rather poor photo of a person for use in an infobox. The blurring (caused by someone very close to the camera being caught in the picture) is merely a minor secondary issue. Hopefully a better photo can be found. To directly answer your question... *anything* can be done. The real question is, is the improvement really worth the time and effort? From my perspective, regarding this particular photo, the answer is no. (Of course, others may feel differently and fix it up as you wish. Good luck.)

'''Graphist opinion(s):'''Fixed tilt but I'm unclear about what you mean by "blown highlights". [[User:Centpacrr|Centpacrr]] ([[User talk:Centpacrr|talk]]) 03:30, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
:*The pure white caused bhy the flash reflecting off the condensation. I think that's what it's called. [[User:Crisco 1492|Crisco 1492]] ([[User talk:Crisco 1492|talk]]) 23:20, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
:::Once a part of an image has been blown all the way to pure white (255,255,255) there is no detail to recover. It's just one solid color. Sometimes there is some faint detail that can be enhanced, but in this photo, such as the handle on the mug and the brightest bits of reflection, it's simply pure white. Lost or desired detail would need to be redrawn or cloned. The white bits of reflection would need to be edited out. In some areas this is not a problem. In the more complex areas such as the label, it may be more trouble than it's worth. Verdict... unless someone wants to dig into a photo of a beer bottle for a while, we'll just have to live with it as it is. It's really not so bad. [[User:Jbarta|JBarta]] ([[User talk:Jbarta|talk]]) 19:50, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
:::*Yeah, it's a decent shot from a midrange camera. No need for anyone to go overboard cleaning up the blown highlights, wouldn't matter anywhere except FP. [[User:Crisco 1492|Crisco 1492]] ([[User talk:Crisco 1492|talk]]) 10:00, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
:::::On a number of occasions I've seen requests to improve an image with the intent to make it featured picture worthy. Personally, I think this is largely a waste of time and a poor allocation of volunteer time. The standards for a featured picture are pretty high and a featured picture usually starts off being a great image rather than an average image trying to be great. I think it's far more useful to take faulty ordinary images and improve them to an encyclopedic standard rather than rummaging around for decent (but average) images where we might make miniscule and tedious improvements for no other purpose than *maybe* having a shot at a featured picture tag.
