Re:Optimisation

edit

  Done, I optimised the CoA, but it taken a lot of time since I removed all the <Flowroot> elements manually (since the text was exported to path and <Flowroot> causes ugly black blocks in most of viewers). As an advice, be sure to convert all the text to path before exporting.

For the optimisation, I use Scour (uses Python). If you're using a Linux distro, you can install from the repo. If you use Windows, you must install Python and install Scour with pip. --Amitie 10g (talk) 02:58, 13 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Conversion of copyrighted images to SVG

edit

Are you aware of any recent discussions that now support conversion of non-free images to SVG format? It has been long held that such conversions are inappropriate as SVG files can be used to create high resolution copies of copyrighted works, thus violating WP:NFCC. Because this issue was confusing, I copied some information, including relevant links, to one of my pages. You can see it here. --AussieLegend () 09:16, 15 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

You had an interesting idea for a gallery of flag proposals on the 'State of North Queensland' article. That page should not expand much beyond its current size (it describes a political idea but much more material might make it look more popular than it is or seem like advocating it). Do you know of a graphic for the campaign flag used by Laurie Fabrellas, seen here:

Others may have come and gone over the years too. It is interesting in terms of theoretical vexillology.

Hi! Unfortunately, I haven't seen a physical version of that flag either. I reckon that flag was probably custom-made as a one-off. I'd be interested to see if there was a picture online. Apart from that one and the Cattoni one, I remember seeing a proposal that used the Union Jack shaped into a pennant and placed on the hoist. The fly was blue, white and green (I think), but the site it was on no longer seems to be active. The Cattoni proposal is the only one I can see a consistent use in discussion of a North Queensland state.

I completely agree about the nicheness of the issue. I'm an Australian (not a Queenslander, though), and the issue seems to rise only occasionally, and usually due to a complaint about how state funds should be distributed. I've never seen the Queensland Government (beyond the occasional dissenting MP) ever seriously consider the idea. That might be why there are so few proposals, and how the Cattoni design easily got a high level of public exposure.
