'''Request:''' clear background and/or SVGify, rename... [[User:Kintetsubuffalo|Chris (クリス • フィッチ)]] ([[User talk:Kintetsubuffalo|talk]]) 09:21, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
:May I just add upon this request and suggest some new file names. Also I would like to request that the other 2 versions of the Peace, Anti-Communism and National Construction flag be created in a svg format as well [http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/cn_j_nj2.html].--[[User:SelfQ|SelfQ]] ([[User talk:SelfQ|talk]]) 14:28, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
'''Graphist opinion:''' I could give it a shot. Any chance I could get the Chinese characters in the second image in text form (like フィッチ but obviously in Chinese, not 日本語)? Also, the two other images that SelfQ mentioned: are those on Wikipedia yet? If not, I'll need to upload them. Let me know. Thanks! [[User:Mononomic|Mononomic]] ([[User talk:Mononomic|talk]]) 16:19, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
:Sure, here for both flags: Text in flag 1: 和平反共建國, Text in flag 2: 國民黨. Note however that the characters in the flag have been stylized and sould remain as such. Also yes you are correct the other 2 versions of the state flag have not yet been uploaded to any wiki. Do you want me to do it or? Thanks --[[User:SelfQ|SelfQ]] ([[User talk:SelfQ|talk]]) 11:06, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
:: It'd be great if you could upload those two images. I'll get working on the first two. [[User:Mononomic|Mononomic]] ([[User talk:Mononomic|talk]]) 17:16, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
::: Here's one. [[User:Mononomic|Mononomic]] ([[User talk:Mononomic|talk]]) 20:58, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
:::: And here's the other. Are you sure that the last character that you gave me was correct (it doesn't look quite right here)?
 
Here are the other two flags, plus a zoom in of the character I used, it is identical to the one that sould be on the flag. perhaps the error is on your side? Also on the Naval Jack, could you put tiny bit of transparent space between the flag and pendant? to point out they are not connected.--[[User:SelfQ|SelfQ]] ([[User talk:SelfQ|talk]]) 23:14, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
 
:I have renamed the fully finished flag, uploaded to commons, added a description and applied to the respective articles, great work! --[[User:SelfQ|SelfQ]] ([[User talk:SelfQ|talk]]) 23:44, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
::I don't know where the original Wang flag.png went, but thank you! [[User:Kintetsubuffalo|Chris (クリス • フィッチ)]] ([[User talk:Kintetsubuffalo|talk]]) 23:48, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
:::I removed the Wang_flag.png and finished svg from the request page because there were to many flags on here to be able to see what belongs with what and what still needs to be done. Sorry if I caused any confusion.--[[User:SelfQ|SelfQ]] ([[User talk:SelfQ|talk]]) 00:26, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
 
:OK, I've corrected the character problem and added the spacing - is that better now? I'll get started on the other two flags. [[User:Mononomic|Mononomic]] ([[User talk:Mononomic|talk]]) 02:40, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
:: Done. How's that? And could you upload to Commons and delete your character file that you uploaded to Wikipedia when you're done? Thanks! [[User:Mononomic|Mononomic]] ([[User talk:Mononomic|talk]])
:::Uploaded to commons, added discription and added to articles. Great work Mononomic, I have just one final request, the war flag of the Republic of China-Nanjing. Could you turn it into a svg aswell?--[[User:SelfQ|SelfQ]] ([[User talk:SelfQ|talk]]) 13:58, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
:::: Done. I'm trying to learn how to use commons, and I think I've figured out how to use it. I use the move-to-commons tool and then nominate the one on Wikipedia for deletion. But once that new file is deleted, how does Wikipedia know to use the other image, the one on commons? [[User:Mononomic|Mononomic]] ([[User talk:Mononomic|talk]]) 16:59, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
:::::Thanks for all the great work Mononomic! about your question, if the file is deleted before it is moved it wont work. Personally I just download the file and upload to commons, this also allows for name changes plus there seem to be some bug that cause loss of information if the file is moved through other methods.--[[User:SelfQ|SelfQ]] ([[User talk:SelfQ|talk]]) 18:28, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
 
Quick comment, the blue colors don't match and the sun is bigger on the original. Dunno if that's an issue to you people, I'm just pointing it out.[[User:Headbomb|Headbomb]] {<sup>[[User talk:Headbomb|ταλκ]]</sup><sub style="margin-left:-4.0ex;">[[Special:Contributions/Headbomb|κοντριβς]]</sub> – [[WP:PHYS|WP Physics]]} 15:11, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
:Not a issue, seeing as its based of of the [[Blue Sky with a White Sun]] the colors are correct.--[[User:SelfQ|SelfQ]] ([[User talk:SelfQ|talk]]) 17:04, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

'''Request:''' I used Inkscape to produce this image and it looked just fine, but Wikipedia gives me ugly boxes where there is supposed to be text. There's also a ton of whitespace. What did I do wrong?

'''Graphist opinion:'''
To crop an image so there the canvas is only the image in Inkscape, make sure the object is selected and go to File->Document Properties and press "Fit page to Selection". That will fit the canvas perfectly. Now the text thing I cannot help you with. --[[User:Kamangir1214|Kamangir1214]] ([[User talk:Kamangir1214|talk]]) 00:58, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
:Alright, here is what you should make sure to do when dealing with uploading SVG files that include text to wikipedia:
:*Do not use flowed text (that is when you drag open a text box); just click the text icon, click somewhere on the page, no dragging open.
:*To make sure your image's text render's perfectly, click on the text then click Path->Object to Path. That will make your text a path and no longer "text". However, don't always use it, because editable SVG files are better.
:Hope that helps! --[[user:Pbroks13|<b><font color="black">p<font color="#254117">b<font color="#006600">r<font color="#347C17">ok</font>s</font>1</font>3</font></b>]][[User talk:Pbroks13|<sup><font color="#000000">talk?</font></sup>]] 02:03, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
