Thanks. I've put notes on the image pages to that effect, which should cover the requirements for citing sources. Regards, CLW 15:25, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
Hi. I see you uploaded Image:LaTeX logo.svg. You've stated that it is a copyrighted logo to be used under fair use. Would you mind telling me exactly where it came from (URL) and/or double checking that (as it's from a free software organisation) it's not available under a free licence of some sort? Another user wishes to use it in a template which is dubious at best given the current current copyright notice. Please reply at User_talk:Kingboyk#Quick_question. Thanks. -- kingboyk 23:40, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Someone touched the file after your first upload, but I thought you might know the origin of the image. {{ GFDL-self}} would be a cool tag to apply here, if you can. Regards, Dethomas 22:04, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
Likewise with this image, apparently {{ PD-Flag}} is deprecated.

Hi! Nice work you did on the US flags. I am trying to recreate them in SVG and am actually (almost) finished, but I would like to check whether the specifications I used are alright. I always used E=F and G=H as in The specification of the 50-star flag, but I suppose that if these are marked with different letters they may have been different in other versions. Indeed, some do look slightly different from your designs. Can you give me a tip on the exact specifications? Is there a site I have not looked at?
Some other questions...
Thanks for your patience! -- Orzetto 10:37, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
Hello, I wanted to let you know I've optimized your image, it is down from 21466 bytes to 11922 bytes now and the colors are exactly the same.
I used PNGCrusher (a front-end for OptiPNG) for the optimization and DigitalColor Meter for comparison. Eliashc 17:42, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
Hello, I'm a french Mac OS X user. How did you create an SVG file from LaTeX ? Which software package did you use? Is it free or proprietary software? I found pstoedit, however, for SVG export, it needs a plug-in, and I can't find a MacOS X plugin for it. Thanks. -- 80.11.205.225
No I don't, sorry -- jacobolus (t) 13:02, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi there:
You recently posted this comment on my talk page.
I have responded to this posting on my talk page (albeit a bit more angrily than in this post). However, I would like to make sure that you see it. First of all, it helps if you actually identify which page you are talking about. Nowhere in your posting do you explicitly write that you are discussing changes to the Flag of the United States article. (It is implicit in that you wikilink to its talk page.) This makes it a little difficult to respond. More importantly, however, you are accusing me of an a crime I did not commit. If you look at this diff page, you will see that the person responsible for the changes that you are complaining about is MiLo28, not me.

Sorry! Here's what I posted at your talk page:
Obviously, the article on the 1954 World Series isn't whole (for the curious reader) if there's going to be a seperate section about one particular play in that World Series. TMC1982 3 May 2006 (UTC)

You have done a great job creating the various star patterns the US flag has gone though in the last 200+ years. However, we might need a variant SVG for the 48 star flag. You see, there were two different star patterns used from 1912-1959. The first pattern had the stars in alternating left and right lines and was used to 1920. The second pattern is the familiar rectangle and was used from 1920-1959. An image of the first pattern is
here. FOTW has more information
here. - Thanks,
Hos

Hi Jacobolus, i think the image no the left is wrong. the y-axis is in front of the green z-coordinate line. It should be the other way around. As you have created the image, maybe you still have the original file and could easily create a new version? Thanks, --

Hey again,
It looks like you were correct in your last message about the rectangle alignment of the 48-star flag. I dug up a 1917 photo of
Jane Addams and
Mary McDowell at a WWI peace march. The only version of the 48-star Addams carried with in the march was the rectangle alignment, not the other one; this leads me to now believe that the left-right alternation alignment used between 1913-ca. 1920 was indeed unofficial. See the Addams photo
here. Mea Culpa. - Thanks,
Hos

There's a revote on pointing Java at the island at Talk:Java. -- Danny Yee 03:31, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
At some point, someone is liable to nail you for "Original Research", if this flag is indeed your own design. Beyond that, I think it unlikely they would use a pattern that would be "top-heavy", i.e that the last row is shorter than the next-to-last: Image:US flag 51 stars.svg
In reply to your message about TextMate I've added comment to the discussion

Hi Jacobulus,
I agree with you on both what you removed and what you kept. About youth: maybe this is because young and immature are often confused. You are right, TextMate is pretty young compared to vi or even BBEdit (but, apart from Emacs and some obscure line editors, what can possibly be old compared to vi ? ;-) ). My gripe was about youth as an excuse and an Apple award should discard such an excuse.
All of this IMHO, of course. And as I said, and I'll say it again, your corrections are very good, I'd like more collaborators to be alike you :-)
By the way, do you know any point-per-point comparison between BBEdit and TextMate? Not litterate stuff, just straight, binary, comparison. Thank you

Noticed you thought the Harvard article needed restructuring and were thinking using Cornell as a model/comparison. If you'd like, I am currently revamping the Rutgers University article including a comprehensive structure I've almagamated from Cornell, and several other university articles (Michigan State, Princeton, Yale, Stanford, Chicago, Washington and a few others). Each university article has its weaknesses, Cornell too, and that's why I thought looking through many university articles would give me a picture of what a comprehensive article would include. Take a look at the Rutgers piece, it may work for you. Need any help, let me know. — ExplorerCDT 13:35, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
Is there a way to numbers on squares in the chess template? For instance, label them 1, 2, 3? I don't know how to do it, but a good way would be that x1 would put a "1" on the square, etc. Can that be done? Bubba73 (talk), 03:50, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

I've found out how to set the background color in the image file, but I don't know what color to set it to (RGB). Is that information anywhere? Bubba73 (talk), 03:17, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

"Is there some giant wiki-wide purge of fair use images that I wasn't aware of?" Heh. Oh yeah, there's a huge battle going on about this. See User:Chowbok/Robth's RFU Explanation and the links at the bottom; also Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Chowbok. — Chowbok ☠ 18:36, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
I saw your name listed on Wikiproject Illustration or the list of graphic artists, and I thought I'd let you know that a Graphics Lab has been created on EN. Based on the highly successful French and German graphics labs, it seeks to better organise and coordinate our graphic design and photo-editing efforts. Up until now, there has been no common space on EN where users could ask for maps, charts and other SVG files to be created. What's more, the Graphics Lab has discussion boards, tips, tools and links; in sum, a good common workspace. Come help us out! The infrastucture is already in place, and now we need participants. :) -- Zantastik talk 02:10, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
