Graphist opinion(s):
Combining two coats of arms
-
Coat of Arms of England
-
Coat of Arms of the Protectorate
Article(s): Template:Parliaments of England 1601
Request: Can the above two coats of arms be combined half-and-half into one image please? The dividing line should go diagonally from the bottom-left corner to the top-right corner; with the Coat of Arms of England in the upper left half and the Coat of Arms of the Protectorate in the lower right half. Cheers, Zangar (talk) 10:43, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Do you mean literally cut each CoA in half diagonally then join one to the other in one image, or do you mean put a complete CoA in diagonal corners of one image? --The Pink Oboe (talk) 12:40, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry, I didn't make that clear. If they could be cut diagonally in half and then joined together in one image please. Cheers, Zangar (talk) 12:55, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

WVU Seal (super easy)
Article(s): West Virginia University
Request: Can anyone get the EPS file of the Seal of West Virginia University from [1] here and upload it as an SVG? My version of Illustrator won't let me open it. – Connormah (talk) 00:36, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Request taken by The Pink Oboe. --The Pink Oboe (talk) 14:45, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
Done
It wasn't that easy! The reason your Illustrator barfed is because the EPS was actually a TIFF file encapsulated in an EPS envelope. I had to do an autotrace to get the resultant svg. --The Pink Oboe (talk) 15:07, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you very much! – Connormah (talk) 04:59, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

Article(s): Libya (and others)
Request: Two issues: The arab text is only a tracing, please replace it by normal text, see the article about the logo, and, please redraw the star Antemister (talk) 20:44, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
- Why is normal, rather than pathed Arab text required? Do we have to read the entire Libya article to discover the changes you wish made to the star, or do you think it would somewhat more efficient for you to tell us? --The Pink Oboe (talk) 21:55, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
- Normal text looks better than the text we have now. The text is: المجلس الوطني الانتقالي (al-majlis al-waṭanī al-intiqālī, "The Transitional National Council") and ليبيا (Lībiyā "Libya"). THe star seems to be traced, too, so a "normal" star should be drawn--Antemister (talk) 08:06, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s):
Request taken by The Pink Oboe. --The Pink Oboe (talk) 09:33, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
- I hope that's okay now? There are some further issues with the image as a result of the initial autotracing but I don't have the time to sort them right now as it would probably mean starting from scratch and doing it by hand. If I have time later I might get to it, though no promises. If I've stuffed up in anyway just let me know, although I did copy and paste from your Arabic. --The Pink Oboe (talk) 09:56, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
- In general, it is OK, but the source file File:NTC LR.png uses another font. Perhaps you should try to find a font which is more similar to the original file--Antemister (talk) 10:21, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
- It's bad enough trying to match fonts in English, I dread to think how hard it will be to match it in Arabic. Not to mention the fact that not all fonts have an Arabic subset. I know the English font is Helvetica, so it's quite possible the Arabic uses that font too, but there are so many variations of Helvetica that it becomes even more of a nightmare. I'll see what I can do. --The Pink Oboe (talk) 11:13, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
- Given that it's been reverted with no reason given I don't think I'll bother. --The Pink Oboe (talk) 12:12, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
- The Pink Oboe, I would support you putting your effort into completely correcting the image. Ignore people who revert your work without rhyme or reason. Fry1989 eh? 17:23, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
- Finally I think I have it right, let's just see how fast Moaning Minnie takes to revert it! --The Pink Oboe (talk) 11:52, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

A thank you, it was possible to change the font. Can anyone here vectorize this early version de:Datei:National Transitional Council logo.png (same text, please use only black color black, the real colors are not known)--Antemister (talk) 21:36, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
- Is that a fair use image as if not I'll upload it to Commons? --The Pink Oboe (talk) 21:39, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
- I'm not sure how it will pass on Commons. I personally think it would be ok. Fry1989 eh? 21:44, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

- The "foreign artworks" were that the original from the PDF used a raster graphic rather than a true gradient. All fixed. --The Pink Oboe (talk) 09:05, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
