The Graphics Lab is a project to improve the graphical content of the Wikimedia projects. Requests for image improvements can be added to the workshop pages: Illustrations, Photographs and Maps. For questions or suggestions one can use the talk pages: Talk:Graphics Lab, Talk:Illustrations, Talk:Photographs and Talk:Maps.
This specific page is the requests page for the illustration workshop. Anyone can make a request for an illustration to be improved or created for a Wikipedia article. Clicking the "New Request" button will bring you to a standard template for submitting requests, as well as general advice that should be followed.

Seals of Puerto Rico
-
Coat of Arms of Puerto Rico(SVG)
-
Seal of Puerto Rico
-
Seal of the House of Representatives
-
Seal of the Senate
Article(s): Puerto Rico
Request: Please recreate the following seals in SVG. They can be uploaded to the Commons under the same license as the Coat of Arms. The first seal, the Seal of Puerto Rico, takes most of it's elements from the Coat of Arms I have provided. Thanks very much to whoever takes this, I really appreciate it. Fry1989 (talk)
Graphist opinion(s):
- The CoA file goes crazy when opened in Illustrator. You need someone who works with Inkscape to do it. Sorry! -- Orionist ★ talk 18:27, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
- Damn. Well, thanks for trying. Is there anybody else who could pleasee do this????? Fry1989 (talk) 18:52, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
Southern Sudan

--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 03:45, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f9/NFCC_image.svg/150px-NFCC_image.svg.png)
Article(s): Southern Sudan
Request: In light of independence per referendum, please vectorize. In the event of the referendum supporting separation from Sudan, Southern Sudan will become an independent country on 9 July 2011. [1]. Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 11:16, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s):
European neighborhood initiatives
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/ba/Red_x.svg/20px-Red_x.svg.png)
-
The European Union and its neighbors
Article(s): Eurosphere, Greater Europe, European integration
Request: Convert it to SVG, and explain in the legend what dark blue (Switzerland and Norway) represents. 129.10.230.225 (talk) 21:25, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Simple legends and captions should not be included in graphics. They should be moved to the image description pages and the captions in the articles. Kaldari (talk) 21:07, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
Nebraska highway marker
-
File:N-Blank.svg
Article(s): Used as the image on {{Nebraska-road-stub}}, but was used as a template for the files in commons:Category:Nebraska State Highway Shields
Request: This is already an SVG, but it has issues. My concern is with the drawing at the bottom. I'm not even sure how to accurately describe what's wrong with it, but there are lines which seem to be extending randomly from the oxen and wagon and some color is missing. This image shows what the image should look like. –Fredddie™ 05:21, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Those are artifacts from auto-tracing. The signs will likely need some tender loving care (i.e., drawing from scratch), given the Nebraska state's highway collection doesn't include this figure. It would be of tremendous help if there are clean, high-resolution raster image of this - all the ones I could find on the web are quite low resolution. Jon C (talk) 18:48, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
- Once you delete the artifacts you'll find the stroked paths much cleaner than usual auto-tracing results. The file looks funny, but still salvageable, although it'd take some time to do. If tracing from scratch is not possible, here's what you can do: The black-filled areas and some rogue paths should be deleted, the stroked paths are for some weird reason divided into small segments, you can select segments that are supposed to be one path and use 'join' function to combine (obvious example would be the text), or you can lock them and trace above them (with smart guides on) with the picture linked above an additional reference. Regards, -- Orionist ★ talk 19:34, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
- I did find this image on this page if it's of any use. –Fredddie™ 00:00, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
Kolkata Knight Riders Logo
Article(s): Kolkata Knight Riders
Request: Vectorize.--Kkm010 | Talk with me 05:44, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s):
- The logo is not suitable for vectorization and the original itself is likely to be a bitmap. —Quibik (talk) 16:58, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
- We apologize, but this request is not doable. Regards, -- Orionist ★ talk 19:42, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
Creating Scribus Template for "Wikipedia Tutorials"
Request: Hi there, I need to get File:DYK Tutorial.pdf, which was created in PowerPoint using minimal graphic design skills, into the Scribus format. Basically, this document will be used as a template for future "Wikipedia Tutorials" for the US Public Policy Initiative, which is working with numerous college classes to include Wikipedia in their curriculum, so the students need quick, easy-to-read, and easy-on-the-eyes tutorial documents to help them out in their early days. So if this could be made in Scribus, that would be great.
Also, use your design judgment to make the document better if you'd like. I'll also need a 2nd page template (i.e., the pdf I linked before is only a one-page document; for multipage documents, I'll need a template page for those other pages, too). You've got a good amount of graphic freedom here, I'm just giving you a starting point. The ultimate goal is to have a recognizable format so that when a student sees one of these documents, they know it's from the same source as the rest of the documents we're handing out to them. If nobody here is familiar with Scribus, if you could point me where else I should try, that would be great. Thanks! upstateNYer (Ambassador) 01:14, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Periodic table image
-
Periodic table discovery periods
-
A SVG base to start from
Article(s): Timeline of chemical elements discoveries
Request: Add the elements beyond Rg (i.e. Cn, Uut, Uuq, Uup, Uuh, Uus, Uuo), with Cn and Uuq going into the 1950-1999 period and, I suppose, the rest going into a new "2000+" period. Lanthanum-138 (talk) 04:44, 2 February 2011 (UTC) (This seems to be one of the last un-updated periodic table images. If there are any more like this one, please fix them too! Lanthanum-138 (talk) 04:47, 2 February 2011 (UTC))
Graphist opinion(s): I think a vector version is useful (the original is a screenshot), and added link to a SVG periodic table. But I recommend against adding the unconfirmed elements to the table. Jon C (talk) 05:37, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
- Alternatively, one may not want to do this as an image, but instead through the periodic table template. Jon C (talk) 20:49, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
- Or the compact one. Jon C (talk) 20:51, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
Request taken by jkwchui.; ongoing progress here.

Belfast, Cardiff and Edinburgh flags
-
Belfast: SVGify
-
Cardiff : SVGify
-
Edinburgh: SVGify
-
Edinburgh could have a flag derived (and modified) from this file
Need SVG illustrations for the following:
- Flag of Belfast - examples here and here
- Flag of Cardiff - examples here and here
- Flag of Edinburgh - examples here and here
Request: Hi all, we have a File:Flag of the City of London.svg, but we don't have illustrations for the other three British capitals (Belfast for Northern Ireland; Cardiff for Wales; and Edinburgh for Scotland). SVG flags of these would be greatly appreciated. Please note, this request has also been made at the less active Wikimedia Commons Illustration Workshop too. 86.159.104.235 (talk) 12:46, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
- I found the Cardiff and Edinburgh flags at the Flag Institute website (PD) and uploaded them in PNG. -- Orionist ★ talk 17:42, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s):
Orbital capture animation cleanup
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/98/MoonOfMars.gif/200px-MoonOfMars.gif)
Article(s): Moons of Mars, others?
Request: Unhorrify? The Sun should be fixed, and the orbit artifacts cleaned up. Planets should always be centered on the orbit lines (they wobble around them), and Phobos/Deimos should be labeled P/D for clarity, although if you can think of a language-independent identification scheme, go for it. More frames would be nice, although I know know if it's possible. The exact shape/scales/speed of the orbits aren't important here, so feel free to recreate this from scratch.

Graphist opinion(s):
White house room locator diagrams
-
note low contrast
-
this one is even worse
-
this more like what is intended
Article(s): Map Room (White House), Library (White House), and Vermeil Room
Request: The contrast in the first two images for the indicated room is too low. I tried fixing the first one but got a file that was three times as large. Mangoe (talk) 20:39, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Can you use File:WHground.svg instead? It could be turned into a locator diagram fairly easily if it's not already sufficient. Makeemlighter (talk) 20:49, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
- Hmmm... It would be better to make a set of these but let me get back to you on that. Mangoe (talk) 22:10, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
- It would be preferable to have a separate locator diagram for each room given that most such diagrams exist, as it would be hard to get people to stop using them. I would suggest replacing existing diagrams (and adding any that may be missing) by taking the diagram you indicate (and the matching diagrams for the other floors) and blanking out all but the room in question. Mangoe (talk) 18:37, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
SMEAT patch
Article(s): Skylab Medical Experiment Altitude Test, Skylab
Request: Hi folks, would someone please be kind enough to vectorise this patch and remove the watermark (the embroidered version of the patch doesn't display it, see here)? Many thanks in advance, Colds7ream (talk) 18:57, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): This is one graphic that I would recommend against vectorizing. The original is notable in that the Snoopy was drawn by Charles Schultz himself. This has historical merit, is of high enough resolution for screen, and a vector reproduction will not capture the nuances from his hand. Jon C (talk) 18:05, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
- Fair enough; would there be any way to tidy the non-Snoopy parts of the image whilst leaving the illustration intact? Colds7ream (talk) 12:37, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
The Mall at the World Trade Center
-
Floor plan of The Mall at the World Trade Center, prior to 9/11
Article(s): The Mall at the World Trade Center
Request: Requesting that this floorplan be converted to SVG. Thanks! SchuminWeb (Talk) 03:51, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Request taken by Makeemlighter.
Signature
-
Please redraw as a SVG
Article(s): L. Ron Hubbard
Request: Please redraw as a SVG. P. S. Burton (talk) 19:58, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s):
Empire of Brazil
-
Emperor Pedro II of Brazil, 1846.
-
Emperor Pedro II of Brazil as an infant, c.1830.
-
Empress Teresa Cristina, 1846.
-
Afonso, Prince Imperial, 1846.
-
Afonso, Prince Imperial, 1845.
Article(s): Empire of Brazil
Request: Please, remove the frame and background of all pictures and make it translucid. The first painting of Prince Afonso already has a .png version [2] as well as the one with Pedro II as an infant [3], so you may simply upload the new pictures over both. Thank you very much, Lecen (talk) 22:04, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): For these pictures you should go to the photography workshop. This is the illustrator workshop. Wereldburger758 (talk) 09:44, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
- Really? Ok, I made a request there. Thank you! --Lecen (talk) 14:20, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
United States Bankruptcy Court Seal
-
Seal of the United States Bankruptcy Court
Article(s): Chapter 11, Title 11, United States Code, Chapter 7, Title 11, United States Code, United States bankruptcy court, Chapter 13, Title 11, United States Code, United States Trustee Program, Bankruptcy in the United States, Claim in bankruptcy, Chapter 12, Title 11, United States Code, Trustee in bankruptcy, Debtor in possession, Bankruptcy discharge, Chapter 15, Title 11, United States Code, Title 11 of the United States Code, Chapter 9, Title 11, United States Code, Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, Bankruptcy Appellate Panel
Request: Replace white background with transparency. --Cybercobra (talk) 07:11, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): this is a png -file and therefore the request should be done on the photography workshop-page. Wereldburger758 (talk) 12:32, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
Coat of Arms of the Government of Northern Ireland
-
The Coat of Arms of the Government of Northern Ireland (requires SVGification).

This crown could be used for that on the shield...
-
This hand could also be used for that on the shield...
-
This image could be used for the shape of the shield, and for the banners (note the harp too)...
-
The lion in this coat of arms could be flipped, re-coloured and adjusted...
-
The deer in this coat of arms could be adjusted to create the elk?
Article(s): Several, including Northern Ireland, Coat of arms of Northern Ireland, Executive Committee of the Privy Council of Northern Ireland and many others.
Request: SVGification, ideally to User:Sodacanian standards (!)... Note that the file should properly be uploaded as "Coat of Arms of the Government of Northern Ireland". 86.159.104.235 (talk) 18:40, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
