[edit] That thing you did

Hi there Riumplus. Just saw that you "switched [the barnstar image I uploaded] from truecolor to palette-based encoding to losslessly shrink the file size by 44%." [1] Well, I've no idea what that entailed, but it sure sounds like it was a good thing to do and I'm glad you did it. Thanks!—Encephalon | ^ζ  12:13:19, 2005-08-26 (UTC)

No problem, they say space on the servers isn't a major consideration but I'm sure losslessly recompressing images won't cause any harm, it'd cut down on some bandwidth and make it load faster for those on dialup :) --RIUM+ 12:23, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

You just did it to one of mine as well - thanks for that! I'll bear in mind to save them that way in future (btw, Australia currently 19 for no loss...) Tonywalton  | Talk 15:29, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

Same here, and kudos. Didn't realize I'd saved the picture of Kuribo's Shoe in 24-bit. Ylem 06:04, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

Yes, thanks for that, 89% is a huge reduction. Could you please tell me how to do that myself? I can't find anything on Fireworks or any other program that will do that. Thanks again. Raven4x4x 11:32, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Redundant Image

Hey there. An image you edited, Image:Wales flag large.png, will be deleted since it is redundant to Image:Flag of Wales.svg, a standard-named SVG version of the image, apparently from the exact same source where yours came from. Have a good day! – TTD Bark! 06:33, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:CVU2.5.png

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:CVU2.5.png. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Shyam ^(T/C) 21:53, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Gu loga2.png)

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Gu loga2.png. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

[edit] Coorporoo images

Hi, thanks for noticing my post on someone else's page. The reason why I wanted images was mainly to revive my memories having attended Coorporoo Primary School for two years. I am mostly interested in the lower primary section, or what used to be the Year 1 and 2 area. If you have time, some pictures would be great, but otherwise it's fine :) --Ali K 07:17, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

• Unfortunately, the "little school" building (grades 1 & 2) was sold a few years ago and became property of the nearby TAFE institute. What's more, a few months ago the primary school building was demolished and is no more. I'll take a walk around the school and grab some snapshots for you when I can, there's been some changes in the past few years - the swimming pool has been moved onto the lower oval, another building has been built in place of the original swimming pool, the tuckshop/canteen has been moved into one of the lunch sheds and a building has been built on the top oval to house the grade 1 and 2 students. You can see a slightly-outdated satellite view on Google Maps, right here. There's no extra building on the upper oval and the old grade 1 & 2 building is still around in that photo, but you can see the moved swimming pool at least. :) --RIUM+ 00:54, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

My memories?! They have changed a lot! Thanks for the Google Maps link, it was great. Oh well.. times change, people and places move on.. *sheds tear* :P Thanks again, --Ali K 07:03, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
