The image in the template

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. Evertype 16:41, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

http://burnallgifs.org/archives/ was a fad when it looked like Unisys was going to try to enforce their patent on the GIF algorithm. It led (partially) the greater inclusion of PNGs as an alternative, but the new thing is to convert non-photographic images to SVG where appropriate. I think I can do that pretty easily for this GIF, if the project would find a scalable version more useful... -- nae'blis 18:00, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
If you like. The NI one is an SVG I think. Evertype 18:06, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
Try this one, if you like:
It's a little darker, but I pulled the green from the official Flag of Ireland color. -- nae'blis 03:42, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Eeeek! No, heavens, no. See Talk:Ogham for more. -- Evertype·

Ah, gas. So... is Template:Irelandproj what Template:WPI should be? If so, why isn't it as such? If not... why isn't it as such? :P Pauric 18:42, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
