Seabus colouring[edit]
I believe Translink now uses brown as the colour for the Seabus. I would just like for you to know for consistency's sake. Take care. Emarsee (talk) 06:04, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
Tip: Categorizing images[edit]
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.BotMultichillT 05:37, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Map Issues?[edit]
I noticed that when you tried to upload an SVG version of the map the text disappeared. Can I ask what program you used to make the map? Inkscape doesn't appear to show those same problems (text may have rendering problems but they don't go missing). Allan kuan1992 (talk) 06:33, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
