Are there any technical problems with simply using the character ✓? If not, I'll replace the use of images with the use of the character.

I can see it fine in Firefox, I.E. and Opera. — Erin (talk) 03:26, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

That symbol renders differently from browser to browser. (As I recall, the Opera version looks particularly odd.) In certain applications, it also renders with unpredictable alignment (which also varies depending upon the browser). —Lifeisunfair 03:34, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
What character? I only see two questionmarks... / Fred Chess 20:50, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
It's supposed to appear as a checkmark. Evidently, your setup doesn't support this symbol. —Lifeisunfair 23:07, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyrights

Why does it say "copyright" 2005  ?? secar one 11:59, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

The icon was created (and copyrighted) in 2005. —David Levy 00:31, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
I'm not so sure a green check mark can be copyrighted. Sounds more like a PD-Ineligible to me. --Indolences 20:56, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Excess code

Since this is used so much, why not cut down the size?

Keep in mind. The generated PNGs are used often, but the SVGs are only read rarely (when the PNGs are generated). Shrinking the SVG file doesn't necessarily make the PNGs smaller, and may in rare cases make it larger. And, every time you modify the SVG file the PNGs all need to be regenerated.
