Please link images
[edit]
Hello!
Thank you for providing images to the Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.
To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate topic pages, category(ies), optionaly gallery(ies), or both of them (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.
You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.
The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on the Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!
Thank you. EugeneZelenko 14:35, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Nuvola 2.0+ flags
[edit]Your flags for Nuvola 2.0+ are a great start, and it's excellent that you've done so many so fast, but they don't quite match the style of the original Nuvola PNG flags.
Many of the colours should be lighter and more saturated; all blue, white, yellow, red and green should ideally match that in the four flags above. As well, the lighting is backwards: the lightest point of shading should be right of center, not left. (Try just reversing the directions of all the gradients.) Also, parts of the inner border (not the outer grey one) that touch blue, red or green should be darker than the region they touch. How much work would it be to fix these issues? Seahen 19:54, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
- Re your response on my talk page: I don't think a government can realistically expect the digital representation of a flag to be in exactly its original colours, given (a) that different monitors will render the same colour differently, and (b) we're using gradients rather than solid colours. As for the Netherlands/Luxembourg issue, I suggest adjusting only the luminosity when a darker or lighter blue is needed, while leaving the hue the same and the saturation at maximum. I also think it might be easier to keep a colour fully saturated if the shading were part of the flag rather than an overlay, because in the latter case you're often adding both black and white to a colour when it's not necessary to add either. Seahen 20:13, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
Also, a note on fine detail: Nuvola icons are generally made to be clearly visible at small sizes and show only as much detail as can be shown in 128x128 pixels. Thus, I'd suggest removing some of the stars from the Brazilian flag and enlarging the remaining ones; also, when you're doing the US flag, I wouldn't try to fit all fifty stars on it. (If you really want to make a true-to-life rendering of the flag, you can always make two versions of the icon.) Seahen 20:19, 21 June 2007 (UTC)- Retract the above comment: after I thought about it, I remembered some Nuvola icons other than flags (such as
) have equally fine detail that also doesn't render at low resolutions, so simplifying the flags would be a stylistic departure that we're trying not to make. Still, I think the outside border on each charge should be thickened up to a full pixel, as should any fimbriations that aren't already that thick.
- Okay, a charge is a shield, emblem, animal or something like that. On the Canadian flag, the charge is the maple leaf; on the Spanish flag, it's the coat of arms; on the Albanian flag, it's the bird. A fimbriation is a white or yellow border between two dark regions on a flag, or a dark border between a white and yellow region. The white and yellow stripes on the flag of South Africa are fimbriations. Does that clear things up? Seahen 16:43, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
- As for your new Albania flag: it's a perfect example of what we're after! The only thing I could think of adding would be a drop shadow, offset down 1/2 pixel and right 1/2 pixel. (All quantities are in terms of the default rendering size of 60x60.) I can't wait to show these to relevant Wikipedia WikiProjects.
- BTW, what software do you use to make these flags? Do you do them all one-by-one or do you have a batch script? Seahen 03:06, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
- P.S. Given that you've got the original shading down so amazingly, and I haven't, I wouldn't mind at all if you were to overwrite the flags I did with your versions. Seahen 03:10, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
- Retract the above comment: after I thought about it, I remembered some Nuvola icons other than flags (such as
Re: Flag colours
[edit]Sorry for my belated reply. I suggest that sky blue be put halfway between the basic blue and white, with the saturation still at a maximum at all points on the gradient. Also, the shading on the Ecuadorian flag doesn't quite match that of the Spanish flag. Seahen 17:39, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
Flags
[edit]Yes, I noticed just today... I am starting now to fix all my flags. The problem was that there is almost a majority of "dark" flags, and since there was no official policy written I went right in the trap. Anyway, I am going to make a simple template so people know where to start from. Orzetto 22:05, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.BotMultichillT 20:32, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Kosovo flag
[edit]Could you make a Kosovar Nuvola flag? I am referring to the "Republic of Kosovo" flag, which I'd love to use for recreating a vector graphics version of the "Supranational Europe Bodies" Euler diagram which also includes the CEFTA.
Map of Belgium
[edit]Hi, i'am interested by your svg map of belgium Image:Belgium_administrative.svg but i'm not sure about the copyright. can you please tell me where is your source for this? there is also a gif file that is from dubious sources and the author hasn't response yet.
Thanks
