Florida topographic map-en.svg[edit]

Dear Sting,

Thank you for publishing the Florida topographic map-en.svg on Wikipedia, and thank you for giving permission to use the image. I am a geologist, Professor Emeritus at McMaster University, Hamilton Canada and using the image to compose a presentation for my local community in Port Saint Joe, Florida entitled: Our Changing Coastline: The Last 125,000 years, which will feature aspects of changing sea level in relation to the timing of barrier island formation in our area. I will of course acknowledge you. Best, Jack Rink — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.227.28.29 (talk) 11:46, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mr Rink. Thank you for your message and best wishes for your presentation. Sting (talk) 17:54, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Remix" of Fuller Projection SVG[edit]

I wanted to use the Dymaxion map sketch from an XKCD web comic as a desktop image, but it is only available in low resolution. I found your Fuller_projection.svg file on wikimedia commons and made just a few color and stroke render changes to produce a very nicely detailed map image that gave the same visual feel as the sketch in the comic. So thank you for making the resource available. I hope to post a short blog entry to share with some friends, and properly attribute and license the result as required. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pablomagnifico (talk • contribs) 21:21, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
