It was around January 2004 - I had made this Tricolor with handful skills I had then with photoshop1.
1 - The original graphic was created for use in gnome-bangalore.org header. It was part of a little collage about Bangalore.
In 2005, [:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Tricolor.png#filehistory|I added the image to Wikipedia] for use with collaboration template for India related articles. Now, someone else - [:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Drumguy8800|User:Drumguy8800] on Wiki has made this neat and better graphic to replace the old one:
It is wonderful how one idea leads to another, and brings up new stuff onto the scene.
On this Independence day, we had to put a logo with Tricolor at [:http://sampada.net|Sampada] and I used the below modified graphic to come up with this:
The graphic is now a bit tilted, shadows changed with Kesari (Light Orange) color on the top (exactly the way I had intended in the original graphic). The letter beside reads "60" marking 60 years of Indian independence. (Modified using Inkscape and GIMP).
