Summary[edit]

Usage[edit]

As a map-pointer, the image can be used in map-locator templates, such as English Wikipedia "Template:Location_map" (setting template parameter "mark" to the pointer image file, with "marksize=7" to set marker size in pixels).

Licensing[edit]

This image of simple geometry is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain, because it consists entirely of information that is common property and contains no original authorship.

Format[edit]

This file is purposely maintained in GIF format (most international GIF-related patents have expired) to allow enlargement beyond original size, on English Wikipedia, which would reshrink oversized PNG images, a few seconds after enlargement (as of 14Nov07). Using PNG-format might also fail to render transparent areas on English Wikipedia (see below: More PNG troubles). Also GIFs typically display 3x times faster than resized PNGs.
