message: Don't you think that we should add "Microsoft Powerpoint" to the softwares of vector Graphics?
From my own experience, this program is a huge aid and qualifies as a vector graphic software.
If you'd like, you can see an example photo of Jennifer aniston on this link:

Or these other ones, done by me - Using MS Powerpoint (published on Deviantart)

I hope these are enough to show that Powerpoint is capable of handling vectors. (Though it is a vector-based program, but never used for art/graphical purposes). Omernos
:I had no idea you could user powerpoint like this. Could you wrote a tutorial? I suggest changing the Word processors with vector-graphics facilities heading to Office software  with vector-graphics facilities and sticking it in there. Theresa Knott | Taste the Korn 23:19, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

message: I wrote a tutorial on cleaning up interference using Photoshop and a free Fourier transform plugin at :Commons:Commons:Cleaning_up_interference_with_Fourier_analysis. This probably belongs somewhere other than Commons, I'm not sure, but I put it there because I often clean up images on Commons. Any feedback/edits would be great. I'm especially looking for a section on how to do this with the GIMP. Deco 18:55, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

message: We shouldn't encourage users to modify JPEGs if the JPEGs are photos. Shrinking JPEG photos would likely cause loss of quality and loss of EXIF data. 
JPEG is lossy, most JPEG editors handle JPEG in a lossy manner. (Even ImageMagick's JPEG handling is lossy.) In addition, shrinking would likely lead to loss of EXIF info. While most EXIF are useless, two useful ones are color space and date. While most cameras use sRGB color space (same as the web), some cameras have other color space settings. --Voidvector (talk) 05:17, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

message: I have created the Wikipedia:Graphs page.  There probably is the need for a Wikipedia:WikiProject Graphs as well. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 07:51, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

message: I really need some simple help. As i said, i can't do SVG. I'm looking to make an image and upload it that looks like the small flag shown at the top of this image and the top of this image. Just a simple, 450 x 300 red square, with a white star in the centre. Anyone think they can help me out? --SteelersFanUK06 ReplyOnMine! 13:57, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  i can't do SVG... 

message: This is an open request to whoever sets the standards at Wikipedia to discourage people from illustrating articles with SVG files, and instead use one of the common formats such as JPG, GIF, BMP, TIFF, etc.
The reason for this request is that, apparently, most users of SVG files have NO CLUE as to how to render them with a fixed background.  Consequently, in many browsers they "appear" as black on black -- which is to say, when SVG graphics are used there often do not appear to be any graphics at all.
This has not been a problem with the other file formats.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.95.43.249 (talk) 19:51, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
