Talk:Rhombicuboctahedron

message: I have made some pictures of the various solids mentioned in the article.  They aren't especially nice, in as much as they are orthogonal projections without any shading or glenzing whatsoever, but are quick to make and so could easily be done for all sorts of polyhedra, and would be ok to have until better images come along.  See some here.  My question is, how many of them do we want?  Having several pictures for each of the Archimedean solids seems like it might be wasting space that could be better used for something else. --Josh Grosse (talk) 07:07, 9 November 2001 (UTC)
replies: text: They aren't very big, so it's probably OK if you want to do this. You can save quite a bit of space (about 35%) by recoding the PNGs as paletted PNGs, instead of 24-bit PNGs. None of your PNGs used more than 8 colours, so this can be done losslessly. I've uploaded a zip file of the recoded PNGs to http://www.zundark.btinternet.co.uk/joshpngs.zip — Preceding unsigned comment added by Conversion script (talk • contribs) 14:43, 25 February 2002 (UTC)
thread_title:  I made some pictures 

message: I took this picture of a street lamp in Mainz, shaped like a rhombicuboctahedron. Maybe it is too trivial to include in the article, but I think it is interesting. :) --Itub 13:27, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

message: As can be seen in http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=davinci-mathematical-slip-up, it was in reality the pseudo­rhombi­cubocta­hedron which was illustrated 
in the book "De divina proportione".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Saung Tadashi (talk • contribs) 03:31, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pseudo­rhombi­cubocta­hedron in the book "De divina proportione" 

message: A recent addition:
: In the book "De divina proportione", this shape was given the latin name "Vigintisexbasium Planum Vacuum" meaning regular solid with twenty-six faces.
Viginti sex basium would make sense, "of 26 bases".  But I can't get "regular solid" out of planum vacuum, which seems to mean either "flat vacuum" or "empty plane". —Tamfang (talk) 04:24, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: and it's not even regular. suspect planum vacuum refers to the Leonardo-style drawing with just the edges shown (the faces are empty). Double sharp (talk) 14:35, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  translation problem 

message: In this section, there are five images. Four of them supplement the text. The fifth one, of a compound of two icosahedra, doesn't seem to be there for any good reason. I suggest that either, (a) the image be removed, or (b) the wording of the article changed to justify the inclusion of this image, if, in fact, it should be here.

replies: text: The compound arises from both alternated positions of the snub octahedron. I added more description. Tom Ruen (talk) 02:52, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
