Looks like the current image has been made using 'threshold', which is essentially a 1-bit image (look closely at the outline). I have modified the original (using Pixlr no less!) to produce a much better image, but I can't work out how to upload it. Any pointers? nagualdesign (talk) 00:46, 27 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep at it until you figure it out. JBarta (talk) 00:40, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

<sarcasm>Thanks for that!</sarcasm> nagualdesign (talk) 01:30, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You asked for pointers. You offered no clue as to what your efforts had been and what problems you encountered. On top of that, I have no idea what your skill level/set is. At this time I can be of no use to you whatsoever on any specifics. However... it's been my experience that 1) many people give up (or rely on assistance excessively) when encountering difficulties, and 2) almost any difficulty can be overcome with simple persistance and determination and the benefits of doing so are great. So to my mind, the most useful thing I could offer is to suggest you keep at it until you figure it out. That pointer is far more valuable than you may realize. JBarta (talk) 02:32, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

As I said, I can't work out how to upload it. Most of the images I've encountered (on Wikipedia) have a link at the bottom of their page that says "Upload a new version of this file". It seems like this image, being on Wikicommons, doesn't offer that simple method. Having spent a good few minutes editing the image I was more than willing to spend time trying to find out how to upload it. However, after reading through many pages of unrelated bumf trying to find a solution, and then using Google to search Wikipedia to no avail, I thought that the most expedient idea would be to perhaps simply ask somebody.

If I had known beforehand that I would first have to tell people more about myself, blow my own trumpet a little then concede my inadequacies I would have done so. (More sarcasm there.)

I could tell by the way you dealt with other people's requests that you are perhaps a little bit exasperated, but there is very little requirement for you to be so terse. When you said "Keep at it until you figure it out" it made me giggle because I thought you were being facetious (perhaps I should state at this point that I have a sense of humour), and I then spent another half an hour searching, assuming that you might be impling that the answer was right under my nose. Now I know that you think you were giving me a 'valuable pointer' (thanks Dad!) I'm frankly a little shocked. The answer to my original question would, after all, probably have only required one or two sentences, right? But hey-ho, that's life I guess.

Would you prefer me to just piss off and leave all the photos to you, or is it okay for me to help out here? I do have considerable experience of photographic retouching, just none of working on this part of Wikipedia. nagualdesign (talk) 05:05, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Seriously now, all this thrashing about isn't really getting you closer to getting your file uploaded. Another pointer... stay focused. That said, your ramblings did suggest a possible clue into your specific troubles. Do you have an account at Commons? If not, you'll need to sign up as a user if you wish to upload images there. Hope that helps... and keep at it until you figure it out ;-) JBarta (talk) 05:38, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The 'thrashing about' was to let you know that you were being obnoxious and more than a little condescending. Consider it a pointer! The solution was indeed to sign in at the Commons. Given that I always tick the 'sign me in to other wikis' box when I sign in I had assumed that I was signed in at the Commons. Giving me a straight answer (2 sentences) had very little to do with my skill level did it. And I hardly think that the question "Any pointers?" counts as giving up or relying on assistance excessively does it. The 'most useful thing' you could offer was to waste my time, but don't think twice it's alright.

If somebody pulls up at the side of the road to ask you for directions, do you tell them or do you suggest that they buy a map, or keep driving around blindly until they eventually find their destination? "Take my advice, son, by the time you find what you're looking for you'll know these roads like the back of your hand!" (That was a joke, by the way.)

Don't worry about this hiccup. I'm sure that we can get along together, as long as you can learn to play well with others. Wikipedia is a team effort, right? If you ever feel that people are wasting your time just remember that Wikipedia is all about giving your time freely. And if you really don't want to give someone an answer say nothing. (Another pointer there.) nagualdesign (talk) 14:34, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm glad you got it uploaded... and I'll consider myself straightened out. Cheers. JBarta (talk) 18:31, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

On a related topic, some of the images I've created/uploaded (like this one) are now to be moved to the Commons. Would it have been simpler if I'd just uploaded it to the Commons in the first place, even if I wish to use the {{Attribution}} license? If you could point me towards some useful documentation on the subject I'd appreciate it. I've read Commons:Contributing your own work and Commons:Choosing a license but I know very little about the complexeties of copyright law. I don't even understand the difference between 'Free licenses' ("Free as in freedom"!?) and 'Public domain'! nagualdesign (talk) 15:03, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

To make it simple: Public domain means you give up any claim to your work. Anyone can use it, modify it, put their name on it. Everything becomes PD eventually, long after the author dies. Free licenses (like CC-BY-SA, the wiki default) allow you to retain certain rights, like attribution. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 18:36, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't be much help in matching you with a specific license that that you would find agreeable. You'll have to sort that out yourself or find someone else to help you. I simply upload my images as public domain and don't give it another thought. I will say this however... it is very useful, where possible, to upload images to commons rather than to en.wikipedia (or any other language). The main advantage is that the image can now be used by any language and any of the wikimedia websites. JBarta (talk) 18:44, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Many of the Turner scans we have totally fail to capture the colouring of the original paintings but this one is both crucial to the article and particularly bad. IRL this painting is much lighter, more detailed and more brown than this image. (here is a lower resolution image but it shows much more of the colouring and detail of what is actually in this portrait - far closer to what this painting actually look likes. I played around with this image in photoshop a bit but had no luck bringing out any of the detail, so thought I would ask to see if the experts can do anything or if I need to try and scan in a print image I have of this picture which has the colours much better.

Its also not perfect (the image is larger than my scanner so I had to crop it) but as the main purpose of the image is to show the artist, not as a commentary on the picture - i think it is preferable to have a cropped image that is the right colour than an uncropped version in a fantasy colour palette.

Request: Looking for collaborator, to work with me in turning the photo into a suitable lead image for the article. the painting is quite good (can re-photograph if/as desired, but my camera is crap @ extreme close-ups). image needs perspective-correction (& slight rotation) first, which i can't do; cropping, which i can handle; then whatever CAREFUL restoration work can be, done to improve image visibility & clarity. i.e.: blemish removal, colour & contrast (basically the paper has darkened somewhat, & the paints have faded slightly). which should be done by someone more experienced than i am.

Done Okay, don't panic - the thumbnail up there is just one version and there a 5 to choose from so far. Each has it's pros and cons. Let me know what you think and what else might improve the image. :-) Unfortunately, one thing I neglected is the filename - I spelled 'derivative' wrong! Any hints on how to change that, anyone?

Version 1: Basically rotated and cropped, with some distortion removal which could have been avoided with a more careful photograph.

(Tip: Always make sure that your camera lens is placed on a line perpendicular to the centre of your image, use a tripod and set your camera on maximum optical zoom.)

Version 2: Reduced creases. This version retains some of Version 1 so as not to look too artificial.

Version 3: Reduced creases more. Not all of the creases are gone but the 'paper' looks much flatter.

Version 2b: Altered the contrast, brightness, hue and saturation of Version 2.

Version 3b: Altered the contrast, brightness, hue and saturation of Version 3.

Regards, nagualdesign (talk) 06:51, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

After opening each image in a new tab and swapping between them to compare them I realized that in the b versions I've made his eyes and lips blue when they should be red! That can be fixed though. Personally I like Versions 2 and 3b. 2b adds back in too much contrast on the creases for my taste, and 3 doesn't have enough - it's too flat. It just depends whether you want a restoration or a derivative work I guess. nagualdesign (talk) 07:12, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

it looks cleaner, but also seems kind of "washed out" (colours & textures faded); sharpness seems to have decreased also(?). was hoping the final result would have more definition & "natural-ness". about the file, you can request a rename @ commons (i'd change it myself, but you need admin-powers). (about my cam; i'm damned if i do & damned if i don't: i did line it up fairly carefully, but to when i get close enough to grab the level of detail, i also end up with wide-angle-effect distortions, most noticeable in the "curved" edges of the painting boundary) Lx 121 (talk) 09:35, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

follow-up: also, the white is too "keyed-up", it seems almost "day-glo" on my monitor, & like a separate layer on the image; i missed that on first viewing; in the real painting, the white is the key highlight, but it blends as well as contrasts, & adds depth & life, especially in the eyes (with the red), but also in the shading of the clothes & hair. 209.195.89.213 (talk) 09:42, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Morning! :-P To check out all of the intermediate versions scroll down the page and click on the thumbnails. Better yet hold CTRL while you click to open each image in a new tab (Windows/IE), then you can flick between them and see the changes.

You're going to have rather limited satisfaction simply trying to play with this image. I think what would probably satisfy Lx 121 the most is a complete redrawing of the image based on this (or similar) photograph. Until such is created, any one of the cleaned up versions by Nagualdesign is "article-worthy". JBarta (talk) 09:54, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

hm well, what about going with black & white then, if the colour-balance is hopeless? eventually i'll have flat high-res scans of the whole thing, & maybe someone will be insane enough to help me try & do a full-on digital restoration of the complete painting. for now though, the goal is just to get a better "shennong" pic for the article (we have a pretty meager selection), & although it's not that easy to tell right now, the painting is actually a thoroughly decent & reasonably skillful "iconic image" of the subject (i.e,: this is shennong, instantly recognizable, & "doing his thing" xD). "cultural authenticity" is also a consideration, in that it's an original & historic/antique image, from within the culture(s) to which shennong/shinno is relevant... Lx 121 (talk) 10:04, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

i think i like #2.0 best; it's got the worst of the creases toned down, & it's closest to the real-life colours. i knew that trying to tweak the colour/contrast was going to be a huge pain, & i appreciate the time & effort! :) getting the perspective-correction was the most critical, because i absolutely can't fix that on my end. i'm sorry for being so fussy, it's hard to understand, without seeing the original, what made it "the choice" for lead image (to me, at least). would it be better if i put #2 back "on top" of the history pile, or create a new file, titled for the article? (& leave this one free to play with) Lx 121 (talk) 10:35, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Lx 121, if you're eventually going to have a "flat high-res scans of the whole thing" then why don't you simply use one of the quickie edits for now, then re-visit this effort after you have the scan. Seems to me that with the promise of a much better image to work with, messing about excessively with this one now is just effort that will end up in the dust bin, don't you think? It's a beautiful image, and if you can get a high quality scan, then it would be a valuable addition to Wikipedia. Good luck. JBarta (talk) 10:44, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Done it for you (by clicking 'revert'). Hope the creases aren't too distracting on the article page. To correct the perspective I used Photoshop: Filter > Distort > Lens correction. Standing as far away as possible when taking a photo, whilst making sure the subject is still nicely framed (covering most of the sensor), is the best way to minimise distortions. Provided that the subject is in focus stepping closer won't help. In fact you can only focus so close. Hope that helps. It was good fun trying. ;-) nagualdesign (talk) 10:47, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
