::Comment- "Alberta Clipper" isn't a proper meterological term, and its meaning may may vary from place to place. Here in Montana "Alberta Clipper" is used to describe a cold dry continental Canadian (sometimes Arctic) air mass moving from the northeast or north northeast. This is the large cold air mass that can extend from Montana to Minnesota and beyond. This seems to support that [http://www.weathernotebook.org/transcripts/2003/03/31.php]. He does say these storms are born east of the Canadian Rockies. Not in the Pacific and crosses the Canadian Rockies.

The flag had a thin blue line at the top for a while. Very thin; I did not notice at for a while, then fixed it. Not sure why it happened.

There's supposed to be an add on that will give it this ability, but I've been unable to download it. Which would leave me down to exporting objects (countries) as bitmaps putting them in Photoshop and making a transformation one country at a time. Then importing them back tracing the bitmaps to svg's and trying to put Humpty Dumpty back together again. Then there's the problem of trying to drag all the Pacific Island groups west across the eastern hemisphere so they end up to the left of the Americas.

:Thank you. That looks like a great start. Can you drop the dark green? That's just the golf course, and I don't think that should be on the map of the campus. Or at the very least, be more prominent than the main campus.↔[[User:Nmajdan|<
::Ok, dark green gone. It was marked in google maps as being associated with the University. So perhaps a slightly darker gray. (It really doesn't matter to me, if you want it totally gone, I'll do that. I just like to look at all the possibilities) Without the golf course, cropping to center on the campus gets kind of tall and skinny, but I think OK. In fact, that might work well on a wiki page. I've left out N, S, E, & W quite a bit. That way the rest of the text is bigger and easier to read. But if we need the directions on the streets, it can go in. Let me know. The cropping on these works like a matte over a photo, you can move it around to show what you want. The map has the south campus as well, and everything to the east that showed in the first view. It's also simple to do a wide view showing both main and south, a third map if you wish. [[User:Sagredo|<b><

:::::I have no issues with the font style or placement. Looks great to me.↔[[User:Nmajdan|<
Ok, here's the big map. It needs a good proof reading. I put up two versions, a .svg and a .png. Often the Firefox browser displays svg's oddly, with the text too big, and it did it here. (Anybody out there with a solution or even just an explanation would be most welcome.) When it's been checked over, I'll do the two smaller versions in both file types. [[User:Sagredo|<b><
:On the north side of Boyd Street, its DeBarr not DeGarr. That's the only issue I've seen so far, but letter me take another look tomorrow. Other than that, it looks great. I love the resolution of the PNG, but I know the SVG is scalable and thus the preferred format.↔[[User:Nmajdan|<
::Don't see any other issues outside the one mentioned above.↔[[User:Nmajdan|<
Look over one version of each the new ones carefully. (the PNG's are probably easier) I moved some street labels around, and could have deleted or submerged something. The SVG with both campuses is the one to be sure to hang on to; it is the master from which the others are made. The other SVG are are complete, but do have some labels moved.
SVG vs PNG As far as I know there is a indeed a move to svg. But at this time Internet Explorer does not read them at all and Firefox doesn't always do it well. (doesn't do the street labels at all well on these.) So, while you may want to use the png's today, the day of the svg will come. You might want have an admin rename the map of the entire campus. (I used main streets meaning main streets labeled - saved in the event of an Inkscape crash) The labeling did not turn out to be as bad a chore as I thought it might. Enjoy! [[User:Sagredo|<b><

'''Request:''' Can someone make the background of this transparent? Thanks. (PS: How exactly do you make the BG of an image transparent?)-- <
'''Graphist opinion:''' Yes, it should be winding its way through the servers. How it's done varies with image type. For SVG's there's a setting much like the fill setting. File>>Document Properties. It's the second thing down. (While you're there, notice the "fit page to selection" button.) On a PNG the only way I know is involves coping the image to a new document with a clear background, Then erasing the white. Which isn't bad as there's a tool (magic wand) that will select it all, well, 99%. Then hit the delete key. All the white pixel go away. Taking care that you don't get white from the image. Then a little touch up with a small eraser and/or pencil. Can be tedious, but I find it relaxing. Maybe somebody else knows a better way. [[User:Sagredo|<b><

:I thought of that myself, but I believe it is against policy to have an image that is a cropped version of another image already on wikipedia. Vector drawings for a single article have been done before. The picture in the info box on [[Zhou Tong (archer)]] is a vector image isolated from a larger picture present further down in the article. --[[User:Ghostexorcist|Ghostexorcist]] ([[User talk:Ghostexorcist|talk]]) 14:06, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
::The image can be cropped either between the demon and the figure with the upraised arms, or between the figure (with upraised arms) and the cow. What remains of the cow can be easily removed from either. I am unaware of any policy that does not allow use of crops in this fashion. It looks like a tough draw in vectors, and the result might look quite different from the original. The face looks difficult, and the body would need someone great at shading. Cropping and cleanup could be done in a couple of days. [[User:Sagredo|<b><
:::This tag <nowiki>{{duplicate}}</nowiki> is not the exact one I am thinking of, but it is similar to one I saw sometime ago that forbade cropping, but I'm sure you guys know better about this stuff than I do. Just crop it with the man and the demon and erase the cow. Please make sure to make the cropping a separate pic since the whole pic is present on 3 different articles. --[[User:Ghostexorcist|Ghostexorcist]] ([[User talk:Ghostexorcist|talk]]) 21:03, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
