Important note: When taking photographs of computer exteriors where the screen will be shown, if possible please turn the computer on and show a fairly "default" desktop. Also, place it on a very different color background from the computer case (a shirt or sheet works nicely) so a white background can replace it later, even if you cannot do this yourself. Thanks.

  • Logitech mx and vx revolution mouse
    • Are these okay - Image:Logitech_mx_revolution.jpg and Image:Logitech_vx_revolution.jpg? I added them to the article on the Logitech MX revolution and the Logitech VX revolution assuming they are covered by a fair use rationale ("Other promotional material").
  • A screenshot of the Wikipedia front page on a NeXT computer running WorldWideWeb.
I started in on this, but note that WorldWideWeb does not support graphics or tables so a screenshot is unlikely to be satisfactory. cmh 04:00, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
It might not be satisfactory but it may be informative. Show the warts which it shows. (SEWilco 06:42, 23 December 2006 (UTC))
  • Macs. List of Apple Macintosh models by case type is missing the following:
  • iPods.
    • 2G iPod Shuffle with a colored exterior (not grey)
      • I have added this image of a blue iPod shuffle 2G (fair use: Non-free promotional). Is it okay? I've added the picture to the article of the iPod shuffle.
    • iPod games on a 5G; something better than Image:242603074 2e1f768324.jpg.
      • Are these two of any use? Any tips on making better ones? --gummAY 10:35, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
        • You might as well upload the first one to the Commons; it might of some us somewhere. What I meant, though, were those that don't come preloaded but instead must be bought off of iTunes. Don't buy any just for this, but If you have any, try taking pictures of those. Also, there is a some degree of barrel distortion; and the clock in the menu bar looks bad, in my opinion.--HereToHelp 21:26, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
      • I added a new image to the article with a 5G featuring Pac-Man.--Jtknowles (talk) 20:51, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
    • See [3]. Try to get a composition similar to most of the thumbnails here. Upload to there, and see if anything else is helpful.--HereToHelp 22:23, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Crane Carrier Corporation; I've considered uplading two wallpaper files from their official site. This one shows the commonly suggested use for the trucks, while this one, shows the trucks actually being used for their namesake. Both require appropriate copyright tags, and I'd like to know what those would be. ---- DanTD 15:42, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Is there someone in the Washington DC area that can visit the Smithsonian and get a picture of the John Bull (locomotive) as it appears today for me? AdThanksVance. slambo 21:08, Dec 7, 2004 (UTC)
    • I live in DC and will do my best to get one if at all possible. The museum it is in will be closing soon (if it hasn't already) for renovations though. Mickture 00:08, August 1, 2006 (EDT)
  • Likewise for Suburban Multiple Unit (200 Series) (CityTrain). SM247 06:11, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
    • The one on the page now could be improved significantly - the dull colour can be corrected, but not the suboptimal composition. Probably best to look for another. Jb17kx 01:45, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
  • CityRail needs many pictures, especially of trains and stations. Ziperingzap 09:36, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
    • Look here. Weissbier 09:17, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
  • The Dandy waggon (or cart) is a special type of railroad car. They are particularly associated with the narrow gauge Ffestiniog Railway (FfR) in Wales where they were used between the 1836 and 1863. I would expect to find an example in a railway museum in Europe. A picture of one with a horse in it would be really cool. Jeepday 15:13, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Penmanshiel Tunnel - in particular pictures of the tunnel in use - 1970s ideal but other eras also useful. Plus post collapse.ColourSarge 20:25, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Project Unigauge could do with a diagram showing the four different railway gauges common in India (+ in comparison to standard gauge, which is not common!). —Sladen (talk) 13:56, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
