 * Well done with the new CR images.Gateman1997 00:48, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree. Good job!  Your version of the font and proportions is much closer to the real signs.  --Coolcaesar 00:53, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Shields
Question for you. What are you using to make these great shields. I'd like to complete the County Route ones if I knew your secret.Gateman1997 19:21, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
 * That would be awesome. I've been trying to muddle through them as you can see by the ones you replaced, but they're just MS Paint facimilies I've made. Hardly high quality stuff.Gateman1997 22:30, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I also love your new CA Interstate shields. Could I trouble you to replace the current one for Interstate 238 with a similar one?Gateman1997 04:37, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

I don't believe the new ones are quite up to current standards - compare with Image:Interstate 4 (Florida).svg. Image:US DOT FHWA MUTCD SHS 2004 3-1 M1-1 600x600mm 88 NY.svg and Image:US DOT FHWA MUTCD SHS 2004 3-1 M1-1 750x600mm 678 NY.svg are templates to use to make them all match - just convert to paths after replacing the text. If you redo them, can you also upload them to commons for use on other Wikipedias? Thanks. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates! ) 06:24, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't think they need replacing. They appear identical to the Interstate 680 sign I have sitting behind me in my room. CA doesn't use the same script as other states on route markers when compared to the other states I've visited. Text is generally bold and smaller then other states.Gateman1997 10:48, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * It's probably best to use one standard for the entire country, which would be the one in the MUTCD. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates! ) 11:04, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * For nationwide ones sure. But since these are CA specific wouldn't it make sense to use CA specific design sheilds?Gateman1997 12:14, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Not when the differences are so minor. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates! ) 12:52, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Well I'm willing to leave it up to Joydawg. His design is what I see daily so I'm bias toward it.Gateman1997 22:13, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

County Shields
Hi Joydawg. I'm going to be getting back into the Co Route project and was wondering if you wanted to partner up on it. I'll do the articles and you the shields since I'm still at a loss as how to do them.Gateman1997 21:15, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I think the color scheme used by the ones that neither of us did were best. Yours were best w/ the design and font, but there were a number of them done by someone other then you or I in png format that had a good color scheme. Thanks for your hard work on this man.Gateman1997 03:02, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
 * On second thought, your color scheme is fine. Stick with it ;) Gateman1997 03:41, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Routebox
Um... which routebox are you referring to? --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs)  18:22, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
 * There really isn't anything going on except for the SVG shields in CA... --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs)  18:29, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Interstate shields
I made them exactly from the specs. If they do in fact use series D, they should change the specs - or maybe it's just contractors being lazy. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates! ) 01:23, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Now that I look at it, the INTERSTATE on three-digit shields looks like it needs to be bigger (more spacing between letters). Any thoughts? --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates! ) 01:24, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, basically by hand (making a grid of shields and changing the numbers, then converting to paths and centering), then copying and pasting each into a new document. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates! ) 02:04, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

By the way, to make them 20px high, three-digit Interstates (California specs) should be 24px wide. State Route and U.S. Route shields should be 23px. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates! ) 02:05, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

CA 4
It's definitely not centered that way in (note the screw holes). --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates! ) 20:21, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't know - it seems rather arbitrary to me. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates! ) 20:32, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
