Request: Both images are really old and extremely rare. They both suffer from lots of image noise, strangely colored pixels in random places and lack of sharpness in some areas. I was wondering if anyone can do a general clean-up for both images. I think both have the potential of being valued images on wikipedia and even perhaps featured images. -- The Egyptian Liberal ( talk) 12:39, 6 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Thanks again, Materialscientist. :) I've added a new image, in addition to the outstanding Rebecca and Luke request.

Can two seperate crops be created for use in other articles - "Steve Peacocke.jpg" and "Lincoln Younes.jpg", which would be useful for an infobox.

I hate editing non-free images on Wikipedia. You spend time making an image look nice, then three months later you get a message on your talk page from some bot stating that it's no longer being used in an article (or some other such nonsense) and it's going to be promptly deleted. Utterly wasted time and effort... one of the supreme joys of Wikipedia. So to minimize such annoyances, I tend to stick with totally free Commons images. While the occasional instance of a commons file (along with my time & effort) ends up in the delete bin, the instances are much fewer and farther between. And while I don't have a lot of spare time, at least I know that the time I *do* volunteer won't be wasted by bots and overzealous Wikipedians. <end of rant>  Done JBarta ( talk) 17:55, 17 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Maury Wills 2009

Resolved

Article(s): Maury Wills

Request: Can you blur the background behind Maury Wills, or do something that would make that guy with the white baseball cap less distracting? Thanks. Delaywaves talk 20:13, 23 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Graphist opinion(s):

Rather than attempt to work with what little background there was in the original photo, I opted to completly change the background to something neutral. Seems to look Ok. I think if you had never seen the original photo, you would never guess that the edit was "faked". JBarta ( talk) 21:27, 23 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Wow, that's quite a change! But it looks great, and like you said, it doesn't look at all faked. Thanks again. Delaywaves talk 01:14, 24 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Article(s): 1st: Ayu Utami 2nd: Saman (novel) (also DYK)

Request: Please remove the other person from the first image and clean up the noise. The crop just needs the noise cleaned up (preferably first, as it is part of an ongoing DYK nomination) Crisco 1492 ( talk) 05:43, 25 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Graphist opinion(s):

 Done something, perhaps not exactly what you asked. Don't know how to recreate the left hand without additional photos. Materialscientist ( talk) 07:01, 25 September 2011 (UTC) reply
The crop seems a little blurrier (I had previously downsampled to get rid of some of the noise) Crisco 1492 ( talk) 07:42, 25 September 2011 (UTC) reply
It is blurrier, and this is all about setting the acceptable noise level. Materialscientist ( talk) 07:56, 25 September 2011 (UTC) reply
  • Fair enough. I'll downsample again to make the blurriness less readily apparent. Crisco 1492 ( talk) 08:04, 25 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Bronagh Waugh, Nico Mirallegro, Emma Rigby, Jorgie Porter, Carley Stenson

Article(s): Bronagh Waugh, Nico Mirallegro, Emma Rigby, Jorgie Porter, Carley Stenson

Request: Here are five new images of British actors, pictured with the same girl. Please can you do a crop for each of these so that "the fan" (Brown hair and glasses) is no longer featured in the image. Obviously some are close to her face and low resolution, but could you make them good fits as possible to their blp infoboxes? I'm not sure if anyone here can move images so that "with a fan" is no longer in the image title - now that would be a bonus. RaintheOne BAM 18:15, 25 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Graphist opinion(s):

I took the easy ones (the first four). The fifth will either have to wait, or someone else can give it a crack. Regarding image renaming, the original image is actually "with a fan", so I say leave them as they are. JBarta ( talk) 21:06, 25 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Did the fifth (Carley Stenson), though trying to completely edit out the fan wasn't giving a satisfactory result and I didn't want to spend excessive time trying. Hopefully a simple crop does the trick for you. Seems ok to me. JBarta ( talk) 10:11, 26 September 2011 (UTC) reply
Thankyou for doing them Jbarta, they are perfect. :) RaintheOne BAM 12:40, 26 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Could we use transparency instead of white? I have a thing against big white spaces on the blue DYK background, and the computer I'm on only has Paint. Crisco 1492 ( talk) 12:58, 27 September 2011 (UTC) reply
jpeg doesn't support transparency; png does, but wikimedia software renders png files significantly less sharp than jpg (in a 100x100px thumb). Materialscientist ( talk) 13:08, 27 September 2011 (UTC) reply
How does it handle gif or tiff? Both support transparency, and Photoshop can handle both (GIMP too, probably). Crisco 1492 ( talk) 13:18, 27 September 2011 (UTC) reply
I'm not a big fan of PNG for photographic type images, however, I can create a smaller PNG version with transparency for use in your DYK effort if you wish. JBarta ( talk) 13:33, 27 September 2011 (UTC) reply
An alternative is to use something like the right image (it can be tweaked, but I've got to go offline). Materialscientist ( talk) 13:43, 27 September 2011 (UTC) reply
