Hi, I wondered if you might be able to help me, or at best, give me some information.

I have used this File:Relief Map of Spain.png to create a war map, which the user derived from your File:Spain location map.svg. Unfortunately, he is inactive, and has not been involved on Commons since 2010. I would very much like an SVG map, of the same style and relief detail, colours, etc, based on your map File:Italy North location map.svg, to use for a few things I'm working on, on en-Wiki.

I have been messing about with Quantum GIS, but am not able to find vector data, only raster TIFFs, for it.. the result is pixely, and I am not too familiar with the software. I was wondering if you could either create such a map for me, or advise me how the Spanish one was done, so that I might give it a go.

Many thanks, Ma®©usBritish ^[Chat] 17:55, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I'm a bit confused. A relief isn't vector data, it's always JPG, PNG, TIF... I'm not sure which program Виктор В used to create his maps but I know that most cartographers in WP use en:Generic Mapping Tools for it. The easiest way to create a relief map of northern Italy could be asking User:Sting who made File:Italy relief location map.jpg. Perhaps he still has got the data.

Thanks. What I was doing was following the info at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Graphic_Lab/Resources/QGis_lesson_1:_Create_a_topographic_background and I clicked on this map at the side http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Washington_topographic_map-fr.svg and noted that the Source details mention ENTOP1, which I tried and just can't seem to match the same level of detail. Perhaps I'm just unclear of how he manages it. I'll ask User:Sting, as you suggest, as this QGIS is a bit out of me league at the moment, and very time consuming to learn for a couple of maps.

Thank you for speedily renaming File:ILjunction-rashpun.png to File:ILjunction-rishpon.png. I fixed the link on the one page containing the file.

One thing - Can you delete the "redirect" sending "rashpun"(a,u) to "rishpon"(i,o). I may need to use the "rashpun" name for a completely different file in the future. --Atefrat (Talk) 10:50, 19 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I'm not an admin so I cannot delete it. Just ask someone at Commons:Administrators' noticeboard. NNW (talk) 11:54, 19 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Images I uploaded [[1]] [[2]] [[3]] and you said those images must be deleted because they used "Google map screenshot". I confirm that I do not use Google map to create those images. I use picture in "www.demis.nl" and write the permissions are: demis-pd. If you say those images must be deleted, please explain why this image: [[4]] have existed? This image also use picture in "www.demis.nl" and it wrote permission: demis-pd. Like my images. dokientrung

Hello. Your files doesn't look like File:Map of Vietnam Demis.png, they look like Google Maps. It is the same relief like in Google Maps and even the states names are placed at the same spot. If you would have used File:Map of Vietnam Demis.png or a new screenshot from demis.nl there would have been no problem. NNW (talk) 13:39, 19 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I also realize that same thing, google maps are similar with demis.nl. You can check it out in: [[5]] Can you remove those warning?
