Hi all,

I use Ubuntu and thus I work on GIMP. So I dont know how to create .SVG files. 
How about if I send you after converting them into .PSD files and then you can 
convert them into .SVG. Or you can tell me how to make .SVG files and I will 
send all the files again after converting them.

Thanks.

:) 

Regards,
Swapnil Narendra

Thanks for sharing - would definitely be appreciated if we had .SVG formats to 
use.  We're encountering this problem with some of the really beautiful stuff 
people have uploaded on the Wikipedia 10 gallery on Commons - lots of great 
stuff, but it's all PNG, which means we can't print them off as big banners :(

So if anyone has the ability, would be great if you could also upload SVG 
versions alongside PNGs.  Even if we can't get it done in time, would be great 
to have these as part of the historical record.

thanks!
