This conversation was moved from the main project Talk page.

Let's create a banner for members to add to their User pages and for the Talk pages of articles. In honor of Shane's Cliotropic, should we use a free image of Clio as part of the logo - check these out already in Wikimedia Commons [of all images of Clio] Randolph.hollingsworth (talk) 17:36, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Clio by Artemisia Gentileschi
* I love the Gentileschi image, though I'm also aware that repeated use of images will place a larger load on the Wikipedia servers. Still, let's go with it; we can always change it later if the image becomes a problem. I'll work on creating a "Templates" section in the project nav bar and put some well-tweaked versions of these in it. ---Shane Landrum (cliotropic | talk | contribs) 22:56, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
See above discussions 1 and 2 topics up. I love the idea of a banner, and I think we'll be better off to use a banner template with assessment features built in. Feel free to pitch in on that as appropriate. ---Shane Landrum (cliotropic | talk | contribs) 23:20, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

and switching to another icon available for Clio - for a userbox (somebody needs to work on color choices!),

I uploaded a better version of the Gentileschi Clio for us. - PKM (talk) 03:16, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

How about this? I think we're better off with a coherent aesthetic for the project. - PKM (talk) 03:35, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I like it, though I'd omit the "the". Drop that in the Templates section for people to use, if you would? ---Shane Landrum (cliotropic | talk | contribs) 04:58, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Looking at this page, I see that the vast majority of Project userboxes have the image on the left, so I have tweaked this a bit. Here is the current template. Let me know if any changes are needed. Place {{User WikiProject Women's History}} on your userpage to add this userbox. - PKM (talk) 23:37, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Green tickY I'll make a small, optimized version of the Gentileschi Clio for the project banner to link in as soon as I get a chance, which will reduce the load on the servers. Done, template updated. - PKM (talk) 02:48, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
