			:::Should have mentioned this earlier--according to the folks over at Wikipedia, it's a known bug (notoriously well-known), it's just that some of the folks at WikiCommons are still holding forth for SVG as an ideological point. I now know why everything I've done for Wikipedia was PNG or JPG. But it's definitely a combination of bugs: MediaWiki's internal rendering engine is broken, plus Adobe's browser plugin will not always correctly render (or even read) files produced by other Adobe programs (much less third-party software like inkblot). Avoid the format like the plague.--[[User:Scotchfairy\|Scotchfairy]] 04:55, 10 August 2006 (CDT)

	So this is a file that has everything on one layer, nothing grouped. Those are the two things that apparently screw up file conversions. It still doesn't render correctly. However, as before if you click on the direct link below the image, you'll see it came through correctly. The internal SVG renderer is what's choking. And it appears to not be correctly dealing with a transparent file, either, since this one has no background behind it. Oops. Looks like PNG format it will be. Definitely file a bug report with MediaWiki. They should see this. --[[User:Scotchfairy\|Scotchfairy]] 10:28, 4 August 2006 (CDT)		So this is a file that has everything on one layer, nothing grouped.
