[searchPDF2svg] or [png2svg] Mascots and logos #1 (Olympics and Paralympics)

 * Request:
 * Please vectorize them including the unofficial mascot of the 1968 Winter Olympics aka Schuss (http://s1.e-monsite.com/2009/10/18/10/resize_550_550//68501895mascote-jpg.jpg and http://drouotstatic.zonesecure.org/images/perso/zoomsrc/LOT/140/18794/221.jpg). For Roni, the tag must not be included. Modify the 1972 Winter Olympic logo and the face of one of mascots the 2006 Olympic mascots (Neve). If you are curious on what they look like, the links are here. RainbowSilver2ndBackup (talk) 19:57, 19 December 2018 (UTC)

This is a huge request, so I wouldn't be surprised if all of this doesn't get done. I will be adding files as they get done. Pbroks13 (talk) 04:46, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Graphist opinion(s):
 * , out of curiosity, what exactly is the benefit to making these all vector graphics, especially considering these are fair use images and should never be rendered at a resolution higher than the PNG images anyway. I don't want you to waste your time doing something that will be marginally beneficial to the project. Mz7 (talk) 09:38, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
 * The only upside is that copyright laws are very clear in some areas and very unclear in others, such as what exactly constitutes a low resolution. For example, 300x300 images were pretty big back when most monitors displayed at 640x480 and would not have been considered low resolution, so fair-use images had to be much smaller. Now, of course, 300x300 is standard low resolution. As the definition of low resolution changes, SVG files do not have to be re-uploaded to fit that definition.


 * Now, I will not be devoting much time to vectoring these logos by hand, unless the logo looks particularly simple to recreate. I have been searching for pdf files containing the svg versions of these images, extracting them, and uploading them here. Pbroks13 (talk) 14:24, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
 * , gotcha. I don’t mean to diminish the importance of your overall work in this area – I’m sure it’s a rather thankless job. So thank you so much for taking the time to do this. Mz7 (talk) 18:52, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
 * No worries, I didn't take it any kind of way like that. I appreciate the kind words! Pbroks13 (talk) 14:56, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Thank you, I've added the one you linked and fixed the Fuwa's face. Pbroks13 (talk) 16:44, 30 December 2018 (UTC)

 * I did extract the SVG from the PDFs. What do you mean? Pbroks13 (talk) 14:56, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Buddhism in Malaysia


 * Request:
 * I just created a symbol of Buddhist symbolism in Malaysia based on this picture today, but somehow forget to include another one bead (the smaller circle) in the larger circle. There supposedly 24 beads in the circle, not 23 and I don't know how to fix it since I am unable to using the "arrange" down below in "object" bar of Inkscape again. In previous Inkscape version, there is the scatter bar in extension but I can't find that for the current version. Probably had been moved into the "arrange" function.

 * Discussion:
 * Hi. I fixed the image. What is preventing you from using  again? It has a tab called "Polar Coordinates", which seems to do exactly what you want to do. Which version of Inkscape are you using? TilmannR (talk) 11:56, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I'm using Inkscape 0.92.2.. Yes, that what I use before, but it didn't functioning properly..maybe there is some mistake there, did I need to set the "parameterized" for the fix? Which button did you tick/mark in one of the five buttons there? Maybe you can upload a video in YouTube for the tutorials. <b style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#FFFFE0 0em 0em 0.8em,#F08080 -0.8em -0.8em 0.9em,#DC143C 0.7em 0.7em 0.8em;color:#7CFC00"> Night Lantern</b> halo?  04:15, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Make sure to select just one of the two big circles and not their group. It's easier, if you ungroup them first. You'd want to use "parametrized", if you didn't have a big circle, on which to arrange the beads. TilmannR (talk) 06:24, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I see.. Thank you so much for the help! <b style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#FFFFE0 0em 0em 0.8em,#F08080 -0.8em -0.8em 0.9em,#DC143C 0.7em 0.7em 0.8em;color:#7CFC00"> Night Lantern</b> halo?  06:40, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
