    Flag and arms of Plomelin - corrections

    [edit]
    Article(s)
    All articles these already appear on.
    Request
    Could somebody please modify the above files representing the flag and coat of arms of Plomelin, so that they look closer to the way they actually should? The proper version of the flag can be seen here and here. And the full version of the arms can be seen here (albeit obviously without the captions at the top and bottom). Thanks.

    Discussion
    Is the dragon meant to be identical between the coat of arms and the flag? Just asking, since that coat of arms image that you sent is by far the highest quality version I've been able to find, so I'd like to use it as a reference for both.

    @DeVos Max: Yes, I agree that the dragon from the version of the COA in the link should be used as a reference in the update of both files. Thanks for your interest! Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 15:52, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Discussion
    @Indefatigable2: what do you think is wrong with this font? i think it matches very well.
    there are to almost indentical files for this service mark, is there a meaningful difference? --Mrmw (talk) 18:14, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, because the colors on this version are much closer to those in the official source (particularly the blue background, which is a darker as opposed to a lighter shade of blue). Also, while the font is close, it is definitely a different style from what's on the Air Force website. It should be possible to directly pull the font from the Air Force source, and vectorize it, but that is something above my personal skill level. Indefatigable2 talk 19:13, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Actually, it appears to me that the font used by the Air Force is simply "Times New Roman" or "Times" (or something very similar). So, it should be very easy for someone to adjust this. Indefatigable2 talk 19:18, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
     Done Taken care of. Uploaded new version with corrected font. Indefatigable2 talk 14:55, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Flag of Syria
    Request

    Hi

    Could you made a variant flag of Syria with these colors? Regards.

    Discussion
    Details of your request go here... -- Panam2014 (talk) 01:47, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    For now I don't see the point in changing colours. It is not uncommon that different sellers of flags use different colours. I've looked at a whole series of photos of new Syrian flags. They show different shades of gray/black and lighter/darker green, because of the (see through or not) materials used and the amount of sun that falls on the flag. Yes there are photos with a seemingly lighter green version, but there are darker green versions too. These designs seem to all refer to the usual colours of earlier versions of the Flag of Syria. However, if you have an official source stating that particular different green should be used in the new flag, we would of course change it accordingly. Groetjes, Peter (talk) 11:40, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Groetjes, Peter: there are no official colors and proportions for Syrian flag, especially during these period. So it is good to have variants of it here (like we have variants of the previous flag). Panam2014 (talk) 12:11, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Don't get me wrong, I understand your excitement about the changes in Syria. I hope with all my heart that they finally get a long time of peace and prosperity. Again, we don't need a picture of all colour differences due to material use, glossy, mat, fluffy, faded due to the sun, etcetera. It's really overkill if we'd have to make colour variants for all flags of the world. Flag of Syria shows that the used colour palette is actually pretty persistent. Groetjes, Peter (talk) 12:23, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I understand. But for others countries, generally, colors and proportions are fixed by law. light green version is used since years. Panam2014 (talk) 12:50, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Again, you show me a picture of a faded flag: light green - pink - gray. Colours do fade, whether it is by weathering or by technical lighting causes while taking a photo. To me it would feel disrespectful to the people, if I'd draw such a faded flag. A new flag would be green - red - black. I've already discussed the range of colours, and why it doesn't make sense to repeat ourselves. Groetjes, Peter (talk) 14:29, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Flag of the Civil Freedom of Argentina - corrections

    [edit]
    Article(s)
    Flag of the Civil Freedom of Argentina, all articles these already appear on.
    Request
    Could somebody please modify the above files representing this flag? This is a detailed design of the coat of arms which should look like this . I know that what I propose looks crooked and worse than the current ones, but these are representations of a specific fabric from 1813, which is actually crooked [12]. All current reproductions in use are crooked [13][14][15][16], this is the official version [17] [18]. It is a flag of historical importance to Argentina and at the same time the official flag of one of their provinces. This flag has two versions in the proportions of 8:5 like the original and an officially existing modified version in 5:8. We currently have 3 files should also have a new coat of arms, the first representing the Jujuly flag must have an 8:5 aspect ratio, the next two representing two versions of the flag used in the commemoration. The second file should be identical to the first and we don't really need a copy, but it has already been uploaded and therefore should also be fixed. I have provided a graphic that accurately reflects the original coat of arms, but it needs to be vectorized. I also ask for the coat of arms without the white background, sent under the name "Coat of Arms Assembly of the Year XIII (Civil Freedom flag version).svg" Swiãtopôłk (talk) 19:39, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Hi! I was wondering if someone can kindly please vectorize two proposed flags of Macau? In the Macau Museum, there is an exhibit of flag designs that were purposed for the city for Macau in 1993 for use starting in 1999 when Macau was handed over from Portugal to China. The website Flags Of The World (FOTW) shows the flags featured in the exhibit and there were 15 in total. You can see the flags on FOTW by clicking on the link here https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/mo!.html. 13 of those flags are now vectorized and are on the articles listed above. That means that there are only two flags left which are the flags listed on FOTW as Proposal No. 2 https://www.fotw.info/images/m/mo!2.gif and Proposal No. 14 https://www.fotw.info/images/m/mo!14.gif. Can those two flags linked please get vectorized and added to the articles? I'll be grateful to see them done. Thanks in advance. --93.107.203.142 (talk) 21:08, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
