Suggestions for a newer version

BoundingBoxMinsMaxs.png

Hey Orinuse, I see some issues with this current image:
1. It's bright: How about inverting the colors (and making the background transparent for that matter as it's PNG)?
(2.) It's impossible to read in 300px previews: How about a larger ratio between font size and image dimensions?
(3.) Should there be a 3D origin in the image? Mins and Maxs define an axis-aligned bounding box, in which case the x,y,z axis would be parallel to the edges of the box - which I think is not that unimportant?
I wanted to ask you first before I change anything. --Popcorn (talk) 22:16, 17 February 2022 (PST)

Appreciate the suggestions. First two definitely is easy to agree to, but for the 3rd, I'm not clear about the context. Is it to add a (0,0,0) next to the "Origin" text? Would encourage doing it if so. --Orin (talk) 16:20, 19 February 2022 (PST)
Oh sorry, with (3.) I was wondering if there is a simple way to make clear that this bounding box is axis aligned (to the world; or is it?). I first had the idea that there could be the world origin next to the box with the 3 axes (I missed that the box has its own origin and just talked about a 3D origin). Or maybe there could be a 2D-grid? I'm unsure what would be ideal, but still, 1. and (2.) might already be enough improvement. --Popcorn (talk) 18:36, 19 February 2022 (PST)
