Triangle arrow on I-95

Can you make the background of your triangle-arrow image transparent so that a blue square doesn't surround the arrow? Jkatzen 19:02, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is transparent. If you have a background around the triangle, it must be because of your SVG renderer.--WhosAsking 22:17, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, first off, Wikipedia converts SVGs to PNGs for display, so any SVG viewer I have is irrelevant. Second, I'm using MSIE, the most popular browser in the world (regardless of your preference), and I am relying, I believe (?) only on what is natively available in the browser. Jkatzen 06:49, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That would explain it. IE below v6 doesn't handle PNGs (particularly transparent PNGs) that well. I use Firefox and Opera, and both handle it smoothly. --WhosAsking 10:46, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I'm using v6.0.2900, and it's not transparent. IE usually handles one-color-transparency PNGs properly, but unfortunately (this sucks), it has difficulty with alpha-channel transparency (using varying degrees of transparency on anti-aliasing). It might make sense for you convert it to a PNG or GIF with only one transparent color so that the majority of users can see it as you intend instead of letting Wikipedia convert it to a PNG with alpha-channel transparency.

I-35 - redundant text?

I just saw your last edit on Interstate 35, and it feels redundant. See the emphasized text in this excerpt:

"In two stretches, the highway splits into Interstate 35E (Dallas and St. Paul) and Interstate 35W (Fort Worth and Minneapolis). In both cases, the exit numbers follow I-35E, but everything else gives the two routes equal status. The unique situation occurs because, in both cases, the two branches serve twin cities and are thus equally important and in need of equal distinctions."

I don't see anything added by the last section that isn't given by the first. Do you agree?

Though really, what I'd like to find for this article is a source saying that neither city in one/both pair wanted to give up its mainline number for a 3di. C.Fred 01:52, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

Thanks for your contributions to Interstate articles... I just thought I'd give a few pointers. Because of space, typically only Interstates go into the junctions list (on the short Interstates you have more flexibility). Also, what are the arrows for?

You can learn about the project at WP:IH.

--Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 04:23, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I made them as a shortcut to indicate directions. This is most useful for junctions only available in one direction or when I had to split a shared alignment because it crosses another major junction (which has to go in between). Take the Capital beltway. From the south, I-95 merges into the beltway at Exit 57, but it crosses into Maryland and makes several important junctions (I-295, US 50, etc.) before finally alighting at Exit 29. Perhaps we need a better idea for lengthy shared alignments.

I don't mind your edits. I was going for comprehensiveness when I see the idea was to be concise.

routeboxes

Thanks for your work on the routeboxes... in the future could you use <td align=right> rather than the |right| attribute on the image? It makes the table a little more compact... thanks. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 20:00, 16 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that and use that convention for the most part now. But you can't really use it when you have more than two shields (like when describing the Bruckner Interchange--they start crowding) or your route name is inescapably more than a line long (things like the Korean War Veterans Parkway--the shield ends up on the bottom and looks tacky). It's the only time I use the |right| style for shields these days. --WhosAsking 05:53, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Interstate shields

Works fine on my end - there were some issues earlier. If you can't get it working append "?action=purge" to the end of the URL and/or hard refresh. As for Business Interstates, I'll get to those eventually. U.S. Routes too. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 07:01, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

NYS shields

I left a message on your Commons talk page, and on WP:NYSR, about problems I had trying to create new shields with Illustrator. Firefox only lets me download the templates as .pngs, so basically (as I understand it), all the .SVG info is lost and I can't edit the text.

I have tried resaving the template as an .ai and then turning the finished product into an .SVG. That works fine except that it seems to substitute the font.

I am thinking of creating my own template from scratch as an .ai to make it easier to save as an .SVG (that has worked for me in the past) but I wondered if you had any suggestions. Daniel Case 18:51, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Here's how it works. First, don't click on the image itself. Wikimedia automatically renders SVGs into PNGs, thus what you're encountering. Instead, click the filename hyperlink directly below the picture. This should enable you to retrieve the actual SVG file, which you should be able to import into Illustrator. --WhosAsking 19:15, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Florida shields

Do you have the specs for the shields like Image:FL Route 826 Shield.svg? I'm thinking of mass-producing SVGs for them, but I can't find the specs online, even though the toll ones are online. --SPUI (T - C - RFC) 13:42, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind - I found it. --SPUI (T - C - RFC) 00:13, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Toll shields look nice!

Your Florida SR and toll shields look nice - keep up the good work! Just a few things to keep in mind: the Florida outline is black on MDX TOLL shields; the word TOLL is omitted on all stretches of MDX expressways in which there are no collection/SunPass facilities in front of the driver, such as north of SR 990 on northbound SR 874 (and also the entire length of SR 878, which is free but has the TOLL-less toll shield); and SR 924 has both a toll shield (Gratigny Parkway) and a FDOT shield (east of SR 9). MDX is using a unique mileage marker design, too - have you seen it? 147.70.242.39 22:52, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm aware of FL 924--it's why I made two shields--one for the free section, one for the toll section. Thanks for the hint on the MDX toll shields, though. I used to spend time in Orlando, so I'm more familiar with those shields (which use the red state outline). Looks like we'll need to make a third template: for the curved shield without the TOLL on top for any MDX-maintained free road. --WhosAsking 22:56, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was thinking about red vs. black. I was just at the new interchange of SR 429 and Western Way (built by the Turnpike) the other day, and there are both red and black state outlines on brand new shields. As for the font, that part is specified in the specs, but of course signs often don't follow them exactly. --SPUI (T - C - RFC - Curpsbot problems) 09:21, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

So for the "free" shields, it's just a removal of the TOLL? Are these all the roads that use them? --SPUI (T - C - RFC - Curpsbot problems) 09:30, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

State Road 924 has all three shields used on the road. --SPUI (T - C - RFC - Curpsbot problems) 12:01, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I can't say for any other authority, but those are the five (the still-under-construction connector between SR 836 and SR 112 remains to be seen regarding its designation - overhead signs are already up on the southbound lanes! The more likely scenario would be to extend the SR 112 designation to SR 836, but FDOT District 6 has been known to pull a few surprises around here (like the "trailblazer signs to nowhere"), and we probably won't be sure for at least two more years. Interesting thing abour SR 924: it has an END sign, but it's three miles from the actual eastern end of the State Road, thanks to MDX (the only non-expressway FDOT END sign in Miami-Dade county that I know of is at the southern end of Krome Avenue, SR 997). 147.70.242.39 00:10, 13 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do you think I should add the "normal" shield to SR 878 too, as that is what is used on guide signs? Or has the Expressway Authority begun using the "free" shields on guide signs? --SPUI (T - C - RFC - Curpsbot problems) 17:28, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The newer guide signs show the "toll signs" as do the street level trailblazers - usually reflecting direction to/from toll collecting facilities, but there are still a good number of the FDOT shields on the guide signs left. Oh, this may change in the next few years if MDX does what it proposes to do - the latest version of open road tolling involving loops in the pavement would also convert SR 878 into a toll road, and, when/if that happens, all the MDX shields will be TOLL shields (the SR 836 extension being built now is designed with open road tolling in mind - it will have no coin collecting facilities at all, just SunPass). 147.70.242.39 00:10, 13 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, Orlando uses the toll shields, as they replaced symbols (like a bee for the Bee Line and an orange for the East-West). The one exception is the Turnpike part of the Bee Line, where a few older signs still have the normal SR 528 shield. --SPUI (T - C - RFC - Curpsbot problems) 23:12, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:List of Ontario provincial highways#Shields

Copy of my reply to your query on the subj talk page:

A few treatments are possible. It could be declared fair use as a logo. You could also check the declarations made for road sign images such as Image:Florida A1A.svg or Image:Vermont 9.svg. There is at least one Ontario sign image, Image:The King's Highway 11 Ontario (Sign).png. Also note the history of Ontario sign designs in [1]. Have fun... Dl2000 01:26, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

On further search, the logo/PNG approach was taken for these examples in Alberta (Image:AB crowsnest.png) and Quebec (

). Dl2000 01:50, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hope the above helps... Dl2000 22:53, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have already made a few determinations. First, I am assuming that the overall design of the Kings Highway signs are now public domain, seeing as that they were introduced back in the 1930's (Crown Copyright in Ontario seems to follow the Canadian standard of 50 years, which have long passed). Still, to be safe, I'll keep them as PNGs in case their licensing needs to change in future.

I am also working on Manitoba shields. I am giving them the Logo treatment because they do contain an actual logo and wordmark upon them. —WhosAsking 04:47, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ballistic gelatin

I noticed you added a couple of more Mythbusters experiments to the ballistic gelatin page. Could you take a quick look at http://kwc.org/mythbusters/ and stick links to the episodes in question in the references section? Since they're both electricity related you might stick them on the same line as "The third rail" experiment. scot 13:56, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Virginia State Highway Route shields

Hello, I am working with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Virginia Highways, and I am wondering if you would be able to make us some route shields from the PNG files we already have. I noticed that you created some shields a while back, but I would like to standardize the naming of the shield files for the purpose of using them in a route box. Is it possible to convert png to svg? If not, then I am considering just using png since that is the easiest for me to create. --Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Contribs) 02:27, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Ontario shields do indeed look great. Just wondering if you have a timeline as to when the remaining 400-series shields will be uploaded? They would be a great addition to the infoboxes that I am adding to the articles, makes them look much cleaner. Thanks. Snickerdo 16:00, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mixed Drinks

Hi. I've noted that you've gone around the IBA recipes, among others, and changing quite a few of them to 'mixed drink'.

The primary condition, which I recall was noted in the infobox at some point, is that for it to be a cocktail it must be majority spirits. If most of the drink is spirits, then it's a cocktail.
