There is currently a discussion at the village pump over redesigning the placeholder images: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28proposals%29#Redesign... May be of some importance given how many pages these images now appear on and that they are starting to appear on other projects. At the same time I would be interested in knowing if there are any wikiprojects that think this could be useful for finding images relating to their area and are prepared to deal with the uploaded images.
Yes. Some WikiProject Cricket members are rather annoyed at me for filling their articles with [[Image:Replace this image1.svg]] ... the present images are really ugly, no two ways about it.

Might be possible to create a stumps and bat motif but it would appear they don't wish to spend the time watching out for copyvios.

Obviously we don't need a damn graphic designer, just somebody who knows (a) how to edit an SVG image and (b) what a typical cricket player looks like. I'm fairly clueless on both of these things but for $500,000 or even $5.00 I'd be willing to learn quickly. Since when did we have any trouble getting things done for free...
