SVG file upload help

Recommended Posts

So, I just uploaded to the Coppermind a vectorized version of the Harmony's symbol form Mistborn: Secret History. I extracted the PNG file containing the symbol from the e-book, then vectorized it via Inkscape. Here is the link. This is the first time I uploaded anything to a wiki, and I'm running into a weird problem.

At first, I forgot to resize the page in Inkscape to fit the image, so the uploaded SVG file understandably didn't look right. So I fixed that and re-uploaded. But then, the image looked too small. So I resized it in Inkscape and re-uploaded yet again. That's when things got weird. Not only did the new version still look small (despite the dimensions indicated being correct), if you look in the file history section the previous version now looked bigger. So I tried reverting to the older version, but that still didn't work.

Has anyone experienced this before? What's the solution?

(Also, I'm not sure if it's okay to extract images from e-books for Coppermind purposes.)

They get somewhat aggressively cached, please make sure to purge that page's cache when you upload a new file. it looks fine to me tbh.

And afaik extracting images is fair use (and hopefully they'll eventually be uploaded to Brandon's site)

thanks for doing the sketching and uploading!
