Not sure what "burn all gifs" means, but the image was improved over the orignal. The topography one you suggested, Dab, sits in a big blue square and isn't transparent. The present one looks well next to the Northern Ireland template. ] 16:41, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

:http://burnallgifs.org/archives/ was a fad when it looked like ] was going to try to enforce their patent on the ] algorithm. It led (partially) the greater inclusion of ]s as an alternative, but the new thing is to convert non-photographic images to ] where appropriate.

Hello. The ] has recently updated the ]. This new directory includes a variety of categories and subcategories which will, with luck, potentially draw new members to the projects who are interested in those specific subjects. Please review the directory and make any changes to the entries for your project that you see fit. There is also a directory of portals, at ], listing all the existing portals. Feel free to add any of them to the portals or comments section of your entries in the directory. The three columns regarding ], ], and ] are included in the directory for both the use of the projects themselves and for that of others. Having such departments will allow a project to more quickly and easily identify its most important articles and its articles in greatest need of improvement. If you have not already done so, please consider whether your project would benefit from having departments which deal in these matters. It is my hope that all the changes to the directory can be finished by the first of next month. Please feel free to make any changes you see fit to the entries for your project before then. If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you. ] 17:15, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
