Forum:Image thumbnail rendering

I'm a big fan of scalable vector graphics and have been creating literally hundreds of such images for all kinds of wikis. However, recently I've noticed thumbnails of media files, especially but not exclusively SVGs, are not being generated/shown at least in two different wikias that I'm contributing. Examples:,. They started dying out after the last maintenance a couple of days ago. It did happen before (say, with that won't display at 34px), but wasn't that nasty, now it involves a good half of all the media files on ru.salve. I submitted a bug report asking for staff attention, but it got marked as resolved without any real progress (actually, even more thumbnails became missing since then). Can anyone enlighten us of the current state of this issue? Thanks in advance. --Radaghast 00:15, June 10, 2010 (UTC)

 * I have, just wanted to crosspost to the forum to see if others are having any similar problems or is it just my wikis/files. --Radaghast 11:42, June 10, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry about the problem report, didnt know it was about the SVG problem. We had a major file server last weekend, and lots of missing image/thumbnail problems since then, but those got cleared up. It seems the proper SVG rendering was as sideline casualty of that event. We're working hard on restoring the correct versions/setupof everything on the new server that was in place, but its proving to be more a problem then we thought.
 * Also, while not the best way to do it, if you are a sysop on the wiki, you should mark problem reports as "need staff help" if you want staff to see them. That system is mainly for users to report problems to admins. So we dont monitor it directly, but we do skim it once in a while. Any marked as "need staff help" bubble come up on a special report, and we get emailed about them within 6 hours. If you ever have a problem like those images you should Special:Contact (linked at the bottom of every page, but preferably use it on the wiki with the problem), and that emails staff directly and those get answered by humans fairly rapidly. --Uberfuzzy 04:28, June 10, 2010 (UTC)

 * Thanks for clarification, nice to know which way is faster. Good luck with resolving the SVG problem completely! --Radaghast 11:42, June 10, 2010 (UTC)
