Philip Craven crop

 * Philip Craven


 * Request:
 * Could this image be cropped (and uploaded as a separate file) so that it is a profile picture of Craven (guy on the right). Thanks -- Gaia Octavia AgrippaTalk 13:40, 17 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Graphist opinion(s): ✅ Centpacrr (talk) 19:54, 17 September 2016 (UTC)
 * To be honest, that's really blurry! Could you try a smaller size? Its only for an infobox so if the only way it isn't blurry is to have it quite small that would be fine. Thanks, Gaia Octavia AgrippaTalk 22:50, 17 September 2016 (UTC)
 * The image will automatically display in the infobox at a smaller size and look fine no matter what size it is on the image's host page. It looks "blurry" at the larger size because the image from which it was derived is very small to begin with. If there is a larger version available somewhere then let me know and I can make a higher resolution derivative version, but I have been unable to find one. Centpacrr (talk) 03:39, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
 * It still looks blurry even at a smaller size. Could you please have another go at cropping the original picture? Don't make the crop any bigger/blow it up/stretch it (or what ever that's called in technical terms), leaving it as it its original size. As long as its just Craven in the picture, I don't mind how much of his body/the background need including to make it a reasonable size. Better for him to be "far away" and crisp, than a close up that is blurry. Thank you for your help, Gaia Octavia AgrippaTalk 16:21, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
 * A direct crop from the largest available original looks like this. Is that what you really want for an infobox image? Centpacrr (talk) 20:51, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you for trying. I can see now its not going to work. Could you please try with the new picture I've added above? Thanks, Gaia Octavia AgrippaTalk 22:11, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

Hazy photo

 * Article(s):
 * National Register of Historic Places listings in Crittenden County, Kentucky


 * Request:
 * Because the camera is several miles away from the subject of the photo, there are several miles worth of haze in this image. Is it practical to re-do the color levels so that it doesn't look so hazy, e.g. going to levels comparable to the island at the center of File:Cave-in-Rock Island from ferry.jpg?  If so, please do it, but of course I understand if it's not possible.  Nyttend (talk) 00:28, 6 August 2016 (UTC)

Electronic cigarette - atomiser, cartridge package
First image


 * Article(s):
 * Electronic cigarette pages


 * Request:
 * I request a white background for two images. The first image can be cropped to focus more on the atomizer. The atomizer is a bit unclean. If possible can it be photoshopped to clean the inside of the atomizer? The second image can also be cropped to focus only on the label in the middle. The other two labels in the background are unfocused and unusable. Only the one in the middle is readable. QuackGuru  ( talk ) 23:59, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

Also uploaded File:Blu Cigs Cartridges (9832539844) crop.jpg with white b/g, because wikimedia sometimes blurs png thumbnails a bit.
 * Graphist opinion(s):

Electronic cigarette - RDA, RDA deck
First image


 * Article(s):
 * Construction of electronic cigarettes


 * Request:
 * I request a white background for three images. The first image can be cropped to focus more on the rebuildable dripping atomizer (RDA). The second image can also be cropped to focus on the RDA deck. The third image can be cropped and slightly rotated. The third image seems to be slightly slanting downwards to the right. All three images can be uploaded using the jpg thumbnail. QuackGuru  ( talk ) 20:35, 24 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Third image cropped/bottles aligned - File:Various E-liquid Bottles crop.png, File:Various E-liquid Bottles crop.jpg

Note that I still provided additional png versions because: jpg cannot have transparent background (limitation of jpg format), they could be useful, and additional image very quick to create at the same time from same master. -- Begoon 04:28, 26 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Graphist opinion(s):
 * File:Celebratory banana cream pie crop.jpg, File:Celebratory banana cream pie crop.png, File:Celebratory banana cream pie crop.gif
 * The gif thumbnail is clearer and more vivid. Good job! QuackGuru  ( talk ) 02:26, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
 * For this image the gif worked out ok. Often that is not the case, though, because the gif palette is limited, so for detailed full colour photos it can give poorer results. What would be ideal would be if wmf fixed the thumbnailing of png files so that they don't blur. It's annoying. Look at any of the png files here, or in the e-cig sections above at full size and they are clear and sharp, as good as the jpg images - the difference is only when thumbs are generated by wikimedia software - jpg stay sharp, png blur... -- Begoon 02:45, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Only when I looked at full size e-cigs images both the jpg images and png images were identical. The images I selected are as good as they can get. The gif image is sharper than even the jpg image. QuackGuru  ( talk ) 03:19, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

File:Roger de Pont L'Évêque.jpg.) It's not good resolution, because it's such a small portion.
