Graphist opinion(s)
- Done @Byejai: After a bit of cloning, using GIMP 2.10, I uploaded a new version. Please feel free to revert it, if you do not like it better than the original, or overwrite it, if you can do better. --NearEMPTiness (talk) 19:36, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
Watermark removal on File:Llazar Fundo ID.jpg
[edit]Article(s): en:Llazar Fundo and its versions on other language Wikipedias
- Request
Watermark removal would be very much appreciated. This bears the only image of the subject I could find that is unaffected by URAA restoration. If it were possible to have a cropped version of the right-hand image without the top-right corner of the archive stamp, that would be even better! Felix QW (talk) 10:15, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- I've done my best on GIMP at File:Llazar Fundo ID (cropped and dewatermarked).jpeg, but I failed to properly remove the watermark on anything but the portrait photo or remove the stamp. I suppose the crop is serviceable for now though. Felix QW (talk) 07:40, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

Perspective correction
[edit]- Request
- I’d like to request for perspective correction. --Htanaungg (talk) 15:06, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
- Graphist opinion(s)
- Uploaded my best attempt, but good results can only be achieved for some specific part, global image will be distorted heavily - Gabuxae (talk) 18:58, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Htanaungg: Can you clarify what do you mean? Do you feel like my upload is closer to what you wanted, or is it completely different? - Gabuxae (talk) 19:12, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Gabuxae: With perspective correction he just meant straightening out the distortion created by the camera lens. The lens distortion causes the building to lean in at the edges - it leans to the right on the left side of the photo and to the left on the right side. For a pretty mild example of what I mean see the changes made at File:Miradouro da Serra da Castanheira - Portugal (16402605263).jpg ReneeWrites (talk) 19:52, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
- I can't find any places on this image where lens distortion is noticeable. Every straight line is straight, unlike the original version of file you linked. - Gabuxae (talk) 19:12, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry if my wording wasn't clear enough. I meant that the verticals aren't quite vertical, not that the straight lines aren't straight. I was just hoping to give you some advice to help get this person through QI. You can find the guidelines here: COM:IG, the bottom section deals with perspective correction. ReneeWrites (talk) 21:29, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- OK. Uploaded a new version with only vertical lines made vertical - Gabuxae (talk) 19:30, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Retouched version
Article(s): already in use in multiple articles
- Request
- Can you please remove the vignette. I tried but found out that I am really bad at photo editing, thanks in advance! Abo Yemen✉ 13:28, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- Graphist opinion(s)
- @Abo Yemen: I uploaded a retouched version, let me know what you think. ReneeWrites (talk) 22:14, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- PERFECT! thank you so much Abo Yemen✉ 06:42, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- can you upload it as a new version tho? because File:Taiz (15182373707) (cropped).jpg already exists and it is the same pic as the main one Abo Yemen✉ 06:45, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Abo Yemen: I'm a bit iffy on overwriting an original file when it comes to non-trivial image restorations. But I had the cropped version removed as a duplicate (it was practically identical), so now it's just the original and retouched version. ReneeWrites (talk) 23:18, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
- oh okay thanks Renee! you can mark this as resolved. Abo Yemen✉ 05:26, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

The clutter all around image need to be blanked out
[edit]
Article(s): en:Paul Martin (illustrator)
- Request
- I want to keep the image in the square shape as shown. No cropping is needed. But I want all the clutter removed from outside the outer black circular line. There's nothing to erase from the four touching corners, but the four areas in-between. Please blank it all out in an off-white, similar to the color of the wall in this image: File:Martin_gets_check.jpg. It's the middle picture in the WP article "Paul Martin (illustrator), under the heading "Gallery." It's like a standard white color which is made less bright, so the edges show up. Thanks. My efforts at Gimp failed. JimPercy (talk) 04:12, 5 October 2024 (UTC)

- Thanks for all, I know how hard you work to make this project grow and I don't want to take advantage of your immense availability and kindness, but is it possible to do the same work on these images? I don't want to weigh down the page with another trend [1][2]. 5.90.239.200 16:32, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

- Request
- I'm not opening a new discussion so as not to make the page too heavy and I promise that this is the last request of this type, but I really need a cut of these images present in numerous Wikipedia language pages. I know it can be considered a boring nuisance and I thank in advance whoever will do it and I can only wish him the best. 37.159.125.203 10:02, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
