Wikipedia's first true logo was an image that was originally submitted by Bjørn Smestad [1] for a Nupedia logo competition which took place in 2000. [2] It continued to be used after this time on Special Pages, such as search results.
These images were uploaded in a format such as GIF or JPEG. It is suggested that the original sources be revisited and that PNG files be uploaded in their places. For more information, see Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload. Images can be added to this category by placing the {{ShouldBePNG}} template on the image description page.
The above text gives the image file name Wikipedesketch.png, the image type thumb and alignment left, the alt text "A cartoon centipede reads books and types on a laptop.", and the caption "The Wikipede edits Myriapoda."
The only requirement was that this image was invisible, either by being the same color as the page, or by being transparent. Spacer GIFs themselves were small transparent image files. GIF files were used as it was a common format that supported transparency, unlike JPEG. These files were commonly named spacer.gif, transparent.gif or 1x1.gif.
