Created attachment 10278 [details] Screenshot of en.wikipedia.org on iPad 3 with Retina display Wikipedia's and the other projects' logos are low-resolution raster images, and appear visibly pixelated on high-resolution displays such as on the third-generation iPad with Retina display. Fixing this will require redoing a loooot of custom logos. :) Recommend using either SVG forms (need PNG fallback, needs to be maintained) or defining 'low' and 'high' resolution logos (which then have to be maintained). May be icky.
Do we already have core support for this? Like: $wgLogo = array( '1x' => '/images/logo.png', '1.5x' => '/images/logo-15.png', '2x' => '/images/logo-2.png', );
(In reply to comment #1) > Do we already have core support for this? Like: > > $wgLogo = array( > '1x' => '/images/logo.png', > '1.5x' => '/images/logo-15.png', > '2x' => '/images/logo-2.png', > ); Not that I know of. And I strongly advise against that syntax. Besides the fact $wgLogo would be best not converted outright to an array. We already have a separate bug asking for something like: $wg???Logo??? = array( '150x150' => '/path/to/logo-square.png', '200x75' => '/path/to/logo-wide.png', '50x50' => '/path/to/logo-small.png', );
22:42 brion: odder: they should be 1) bigger and 2) adjusted in size in the CSS back to original "size" Fortunately, almost all Wikipedia logos are vectorized, so it won't be too hard to create the bigger versions. Same goes for those Wiktionaries that use the 'tiles' logo — I'm not entirely sure if all 'textual' logos have their SVG versions — and it gets worse and worse with other sister projects. [Possibly having a 'Vectorize all logos' bug could help track progress. There is https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Cbrown1023/Logos but it kills my browser dead.]
In the meantime, w:en:, w:vi:, wikt:vi: (tiles), b:vi:, s:vi:, and q:vi: have worked around the issue with some custom CSS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/?diff=prev&oldid=582197537
Pau has created a Google Code-in task related to this report: http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2013/5778687907594240 However, even if this bug is "easy", the task is huge. Let's split it, because GCI students do have the wo/manpower to come up with all the vectorized logos and the final patch in the following weeks. More details at Bug 52019 -- we will come back from there once all the project logos are vectorized.
So bug 52019 blocks bug 32101 and this bug blocks bug 32101.
