::{{u|EtienneDolet}} Do you want all the text as it is or can we remove some text? --[[User:Goran tek-en|Goran tek-en]] ([[User talk:Goran tek-en|talk]]) 13:55, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

:::{{u|Goran tek-en}} Please retain all the names on the map. I would greatly appreciate that. Also, if you can find a more visible color for the burnt districts, I would greatly be appreciative of that as well. Do you think changing the colors would be better? If you don't, leave it as is. Thanks so much. [[User:EtienneDolet|Étienne Dolet]] ([[User talk:EtienneDolet|talk]]) 23:12, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

::::{{u|EtienneDolet}} Now it's uploaded [[:File:The City of Adana.svg|The City of Adana]], if there is anything you would like to have changed just tell me, thanks. --[[User:Goran tek-en|Goran tek-en]] ([[User talk:Goran tek-en|talk]]) 13:37, 21 February 2014 (UTC)

:::::{{u|Goran tek-en}} Thanks so much. I have sent it over to [[Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates]]. Let's hope for the best. Feel free to vote as well. Thanks, [[User:EtienneDolet|Étienne Dolet]] ([[User talk:EtienneDolet|talk]]) 23:39, 21 February 2014 (UTC)

:::::{{u|Goran tek-en}} Quick question...don't you think it's better to have the fonts on the map in black rather than grey? [[User:EtienneDolet|Étienne Dolet]] ([[User talk:EtienneDolet|talk]]) 03:45, 22 February 2014 (UTC)

::::::It looks great! I wish I knew how to vectorise an image with such good results. What tools do you use? <small>(Both cemeteries, to the north-west, have lost an "e".)</small> [[User:Maproom|Maproom]] ([[User talk:Maproom|talk]]) 07:28, 22 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for correcting my spelling, new version uploaded. I use Inkscape and it's all handmade. You can't use any tracing tool or things like that. I think it's more about being accurate and consistent in your work. --[[User:Goran tek-en|Goran tek-en]] ([[User talk:Goran tek-en|talk]]) 10:19, 22 February 2014 (UTC)

:{{u|EtienneDolet}} I like when maps/illustrations are, to me harmonic and beautiful, and I think grey fits more in in the overall picture. Then on the other hand it has to work for it's purpose also so have a look at [http://skulpturalasmycken.se/images/wikimedia/The%20City%20of%20Adana_black.svg this with black] and tell me which you want? --[[User:Goran tek-en|Goran tek-en]] ([[User talk:Goran tek-en|talk]]) 10:28, 22 February 2014 (UTC)

::{{u|Goran tek-en}} I think with the black font it will be more legible. Which is I think most important. I do agree however that the grey creates more harmony. But to me I would like it to be black so that people can read it at first sight. If you can please upload the black fonts that would be great. Thanks so much.
