'''Request:''' Please clean up these images and remove any extra letterings not part of the signature. Then vectorize these signatures and name them the same name with svg on the end. [[User:KAVEBEAR|KAVEBEAR]] ([[User talk:KAVEBEAR|talk]]) 18:52, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

Boki done. Quite a number of the others are of rather low resolution, though. Do you know of any higher resolution copies? [[User:Martinor|Martinor]] ([[User talk:Martinor|talk]]) 03:57, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

:No I don't have any. Could you do Henry Cooper's signature, clean the original and vectorize it?--[[User:KAVEBEAR|KAVEBEAR]] ([[User talk:KAVEBEAR|talk]]) 00:49, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

:: I've made an attempt at it (see gallery). The source file did not have sufficient resolution (effective signature ~40x60px), and much of the signature is obscured by similar colored noise. The result is poor, and most damningly, ''many aspects of it was '''my''' interpretation''. While it is now "clean" and "resolution independent", it is very much my drawing and is removed from a signature of HC. I recommend against using this in Wikipedia.

:::Well If you don't think it should be used, could you delete it then? Sorry for the bother.--[[User:KAVEBEAR|KAVEBEAR]] ([[User talk:KAVEBEAR|talk]]) 07:42, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

:: As to the rest of the requests, much of it is of a similar nature, where the information content is simply too low to have anything done with it. This takes place either in large file size but very poor quality/blurry/grainy scans, or very small images. The requests were outstanding for several months because they are almost impossible to do well. [[User:Jkwchui|Jon C]] ([[User talk:Jkwchui|talk]]) 06:04, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

:::Really? How about the signatures for Kekauluohi, Keoni Kiwini, and Boaz Mahune? They are really high resolutions.--[[User:KAVEBEAR|KAVEBEAR]] ([[User talk:KAVEBEAR|talk]]) 07:37, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

:::: They're larger files, but I personally consider them low quality scans where lines fade in and out. Others might bite... [[User:Jkwchui|Jon C]] ([[User talk:Jkwchui|talk]]) 18:34, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
