Thanks for sharing - would definitely be appreciated if we had .SVG formats to use. We're encountering this problem with some of the really beautiful stuff people have uploaded on the Wikipedia 10 gallery on Commons - lots of great stuff, but it's all PNG, which means we can't print them off as big banners :( So if anyone has the ability, would be great if you could also upload SVG versions alongside PNGs. Even if we can't get it done in time, would be great to have these as part of the historical record. thanks!

Hi all, I use Ubuntu and thus I work on GIMP. So I dont know how to create .SVG files. How about if I send you after converting them into .PSD files and then you can convert them into .SVG. Or you can tell me how to make .SVG files and I will send all the files again after converting them. Thanks. :) Regards, Swapnil Narendra ________________________________ From: Jay Walsh <jwalsh(a)wikimedia.org> To: Planning for WP 10th anniversary <wikix-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Cc: Discussion list on Indian language projects of Wikimedia. <wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>rg>; Tony Thomas <tony.thomas(a)oneindia.co.in>in>; Swapnil Narendra <swapnilnarendra(a)yahoo.com> Sent: Wed, 12 January, 2011 11:28:58 AM Subject: Re: [WikiX-l] [Wikimediaindia-l] India specific Designs / Artwork for Wikipedia 10 Thanks for sharing - would definitely be appreciated if we had .SVG formats to use.

I really wish i could contribute using graphics, but due to my fracture, my current work area not been very conducive to using the mouse. I did manage to discover that one of my classmates had made a couple of wikipedia posters (by hand!) during while doing her BFA and it looks amazing. I am trying to get it scanned and processed for a print but it wont be possible before tomorrow night. I'l send across a couple of pics of it by tonight. cheers arun 2011/1/12 shirish शिरीष <shirishag75(a)gmail.com> -- j.mp/ArunGanesh

Thanks a lot Anirudh ! It really meant a lot. I had always wanted to contribute towards such project, especially Wikipedia and Linux but was not able to. So I didnt want to miss this opportunity. Thanks for appreciating my work. I am really happy that you guys found it worth using. Let me know if I can be of any assistance in future. PS: I am still left with a few designs and will send them real soon. Thanks.

You have been a great help. Swapnil had contacted me to volunteer his time three days ago and has been very helpful with the design of the banners even though he hasn't been directly involved with the movement in the past. On the behalf of the Wikimedia community, I would like to extend gratitude and a sincere thanks for all your help. :) Yours sincerely, Anirudh Bhati 00 91 9328712208 Skype: anirudhsbh On Wed, Jan 12, 2011 at 9:48 AM, Srikanth Lakshmanan <srik.lak(a)gmail.com> wrote:
