Article(s): Fantastic (magazine)
Request: A commenter at the FAC for Fantastic has requested that the background be cleaned up so that only the logos can be seen -- the goal of this image is to illustrate the various formats and fonts that were used for the magazine's cover title over the years. I'm uncertain what should be used for a background because some fonts are quite pale while a couple are black, so a common colour for all of them is unlikely to work. Any way that the presentation of these can be improved would be welcome. Two other points: the titles are all to the same scale, so please don't rescale anything to fit across the page -- I think they should be presented actual size; and please leave in place the smaller subtitles -- I'd like to preserve all the text in each title. Thanks for any assistance.Mike Christie (talk – library) 16:40, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s):
- This would probably require vectorizing all of them, since the logos are in different colors and some of them are on rather complicated backgrounds. (Not accepting, just commenting.) Kaldari (talk) 09:00, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- I gave it I try, but were unable to separate the ancillary text. I think I would be able to do it if a file in higher resolution could be provided. P. S. Burton (talk) 10:00, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- I've uploaded a higher resolution version -- see above. I cropped less closely on these since this is not intended to be the final version. Let me know if this is good enough to work with. Thanks! Mike Christie (talk – library) 15:36, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- This is what I could come up with. I see now that I didn't read/follow your instructions very well. Someone else with more photoshop skills should probably give it a go. The backgrounds and the ancillary text makes it hard. P. S. Burton (talk) 23:25, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you very much for this. I'll link to this from the FAC, and see what the commenter there thinks. I really appreciate the help. Mike Christie (talk – library) 23:32, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- I do think the logos look better on a blank background, it allows them to be directly contrasted. I like the light blue one. I think it's a shame they're a little crooked- could they possibly be lined up? J Milburn (talk) 22:45, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
- This has been done by an editor at FAC, with a slightly different background; I have marked this as resolved. The first image above now shows the new version since he uploaded it over the original. Thanks to P.S. Burton for working on this. Mike Christie (talk – library) 02:29, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Graphist opinion(s): Done: I've cropped the border and lightened the dark areas. The new file is also a JPEG which is better suited for photographs. Regards, Fallschirmjäger ✉ 23:04, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you very much! Disagree with that last point (jpeg has issues with displaying gradients in thumbnails (at least on wiki) and is terrible for shots that show a clear sky), but for this old photo it works - ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ τ ¢ 19:09, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
