::::I thought SVG files like [[:Image:L%26T-logo.svg]] were exempt from the size issue, since their vector images. Meh, I'm probably forgetting the related-policy Q that explains why they are included.

:::::I'm not sure on that, perhaps send that example to [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions‎]] as well. If that is ok by the folks there, (I presume they know what they are talking about ;) ), then we can just ignore svg's. —— '''[[user:Eagle 101|<font color="navy">Eagle</font><font color="red">101]]'''</font>^{[[user_talk:Eagle 101|Need help?]]} 20:52, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

:::::: It is my understanding that they are exempt only in so much as they have no true resolution (and then there have been arguments that they should be removed entirely because of this fact). However, they should never be rendered any larger than necessary (this would include on the image description page). In reality, you could excessively shrink SVGs without quality loss. See {{t1|SVG-Logo}}. I know it's not a policy, but it's probably a correct rule of thumb. -&nbsp;[[User:AWeenieMan|AWeenieMan]]&nbsp;([[User talk:AWeenieMan|talk]]) 21:02, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
