;Request:
: I'm writing an article on a landmark video game known for popularizing the isomorphic style. The developers' technique for doing this was a mystery to many devs at the time and I'd like to be able to illustrate how they used [[Mask_(computing)#Image_masks|image masking]]. The gist, as I understand it, is that images used to collide with each other, so instead the devs made an image mask (in white in the example) and added detail in black atop it (monochromatic preferred). My prose source has a visual example of the masking effect [https://www.dropbox.com/s/jombskbvxrs219l/Screenshot%202015-08-08%2017.04.21.png?dl=0 here]. There is [[:File:Sprite rendering by binary image mask.png|an image]] that kind of illustrates this, but I'm not sure about the copyright of its components, so I asked its author. So I'm requesting an illustration of the additive image masking used in the game, or a free use version of the mask illustrated in my Dropbox link. Thanks! – [[user talk:czar|<span style='font:bold small-caps 1.2em sans-serif;color:black'><u>czar</u></span>]] 22:13, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
* I could also use some help finding/making an illustration of the overlapping bricks used in [https://www.dropbox.com/s/jombskbvxrs219l/Screenshot%202015-08-08%2017.04.21.png?dl=0 the article]. It would be nice to have a side-by-side of how the object would look with one sprite placed atop the other and one where each sprite overlaps the next (like the image). I know it's a bit confusing, but the article explains the idea. – [[user talk:czar|<span style='font:bold small-caps 1.2em sans-serif;color:black'><u>czar</u></span>]] 22:26, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

:The linked sign doesn't appear as an official warning sign in [http://www.dpwh.gov.ph/pdf/road%20safety%20manuals%202012.zip DPWH Manual 2] (200+MB download!). Do you have a canonical source for the arc/turn and tractor trailer? Is the turn similar to the one depicted in W1-6?

;Article(s):

;Request:
: The style of this diagram is wrong, because it implies executions are a continues variable rather than count data. It should be a stacked bar chart, like [http://thedailyviz.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/guns-620x415.png this one]. Could somebody please re-do it? -- [[User:Bender235|bender235]] ([[User talk:Bender235|talk]]) 07:01, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
;Graphist opinion(s):
I can do this. Just need to find the data---which should be straightforward because the sources are described in the image description.

:I've uploaded an example and linked to it in the gallery above. I realize there are a few cosmetic issues to address---but more seriously, I'm not convinced the stacked bars are the best option here. With the number of categories we have, some small trends visible in the line chart are obscured in this format. Let me know what you think! [[User:4dhayman|4dhayman]] ([[User talk:4dhayman|talk]])

;Request:
: Both of these fair use PNG images have recently been resized by [[User:Theo's Little Bot]]. Unfortunately, the quality of the resized images is ''noticeably'' lower than the original files (comparing the text, in particular, shows this). Therefore, it would be great if someone could try to resize the images again while retaining the quality. Alternatively (and preferably), it strikes me that these images are prime candidates for converting to SVGs, as they are relatively simple. The original, full quality versions of the images (which would need to be the basis of any fixes) are due to be deleted on 7 September. Thank you. -- [[User:Wumpus12|Wumpus12]] ([[User talk:Wumpus12|talk]]) 10:39, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

: I personally can't see any noticeable reduction in quality. Can you be more specific? [[User:NikNaks|<b><font color="1b37e5">Nik</font><font color="328824">Naks</font></b>]] <sub>[[User talk:NikNaks|talk]] - [[commons:User:NikNaks/Gallery|gallery]]</sub> 16:30, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
::As I said, it's most noticeable around the text (looks a bit fuzzy). It is, admittedly, more noticeable on my iPhone (retina display) than my computer monitor, but still noticeable. Maybe I'm being picky. The other issue (which I forgot to mention above) is that the file sizes are now quite a bit larger, despite the images being physically smaller. – [[User:Wumpus12|Wumpus12]] ([[User talk:Wumpus12|talk]]) 21:06, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
