Provide better versions of some TDWG logos

[peterdesmet]

@stanblum most of the new TDWG logos (https://www.tdwg.org/about/logos/) are provided nicely cropped, both in png and svg. Except for:

https://static.tdwg.org/logo/Colour/SVG/TDWG-Logo_Hex-Sticker_frame_blue.svg https://static.tdwg.org/logo/White/SVG/TDWG-Logo_Short-Form-white.svg https://static.tdwg.org/logo/White/SVG/TDWG-Logo_Hex-Sticker-white_transp_frame.svg

These have lots of padding and Illustrator metadata.

Is it possible to get those in crisp versions like the others?

I can tackle that if needed.

Did you find that some were strangely pixelated? I didn't have the time or tools to sort that out, so I would definitely appreciate it if you fix those. If you put them in the "Outreach and Communications" Google Drive, I'll copy them over to the static server. I'll email you the link separately.

No, just lots of padding and metadata. Compare the code and display of:

• Good: https://static.tdwg.org/logo/Colour/SVG/TDWG-Logo_Short-Form.svg (code is minimized, logo has no padding)
• Bad: https://static.tdwg.org/logo/White/SVG/TDWG-Logo_Short-Form-white.svg (code is verbose, logo has lots of padding - use a black background to actually see: style="background: black;")

@ben-norton if you could fix that, that would be great!

Sent to Stan.

Matt Blissett sorted the permissions issue for me (Thanks @MattBlissett !). I replaced the SVG for: TDWG-Logo_Short-Form-white.svg

Still need to see about others that need to be replaced...

[peterdesmet]

@stanblum can this issue be closed?

[stanblum]

Not just yet. I need to look at the other SVGs and see if they need to have the padding adjusted.

@stanblum Thanks Stan. Let me know if anything I sent you is problematic.

Hi Ben,

The only one I'm missing and still has problems is this one.

Color: TDWG-Logo_Hex-Sticker_frame_blue.svg: original has excessive padding

The last one you sent didn't render correctly -- the individual element positions had been scrambled.

I replaced the white horizontal short form last week I think, but I still need to do this one.

White: TDWG-Logo_Hex-Sticker-white_transp_frame.svg: excessive padding

Fortunately, the last version you sent me does render correctly, though, so I just need to replace that bad with the good... Which I will do, straightaway.

So, again, the only one I need revised from you is the first one above.

Thanks again for helping to straighten these out.

-Stan

I'll do it tonight. :)

I created two. The version above has the padding removed. The second file (linked below) is a simplified version of the first. The SVG has a few deprecated attributes that can be removed. If downloading the SVG above is problematic, I've shared both via google drive. Padding Removed: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TvsBlTinuWLoGS_VXaHaHtq4LQPORNH7/view?usp=sharing Padding Removed and Simplified: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VyBzyaI-Eie0RD0Kxw8CkBpMadJH3BP4/view?usp=sharing

I was able to save the one displayed two notes above. I have the previous one on my system with a new name (..._padded), and I uploaded the fixed one using the original name -- i.e., the same link points to the updated file. I couldn't access the simplified file -- requested access. I'm going to close this issue.
