[edit] Battle of Flamborough Head image

Hi, thanks for the new Battle of Flamborough Head image- one of these days I'll get round to trying vector graphics, honest. I see just one serious problem with the new image- misspelling of Spurn Head- and one minor niggle- the new version needs to be displayed larger than normal Wikipedia size (say about 400px across) for the place-names to be legible. Turning the image to put east at the top was a good idea though; helps a lot with the place-names. Cheers, David Trochos (talk) 23:18, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

(A cheeky PS: there's also a little purple dot missing in the middle of Jones's squadron) David Trochos (talk) 13:00, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

An even cheekier PPS: I downloaded Inkscape had had a go at it myself. The result is presently in Wikipedia images, not Commons. David Trochos (talk) 14:47, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Your translated maps of the island of Saint-Martin

Good afternoon.
I saw you translated two of my maps of the island of Saint-Martin (File:Saint-Martin_map_detailed-en.svg and File:Saint-Martin_map_simple_en.svg) and I'm glad of that.
Unfortunately, to create my two maps I've drawn few years ago I used old paper maps of the French Institut Géographique National which are still under copyright, so this means that our four maps represent derivative works without permission. Because of this I will ask their deletion in a few days and give you this notification in order for you to have the time to save a copy of your maps in your computer, if you want.
I'm preparing completely new versions of them, using this time free data and of better quality. They will be shortly available on Commons and I will notify it to you when they are.
Sorry for the mess. Greetings. Sting (talk) 18:11, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
