Transparent sections of the following image are shown in light gray. The images in this gallery fall into four main groups:
The first group with file names beginning with "dcsseal" contain the approved seal of the Diocese of the Central States. The seal image was imported from the original vector graphic drawing made by Almy in 2008. Adjustments were made by the webmaster for use on the web and in diocesan documents in May 2020. The vector graphic drawings (.svg) were made with Inkscape. The matching bitmap images (.png) were exported from Inkscape and further modified as needed using the image editor GIMP.
The second group with names beginning with "diologo" are unofficial images created by the webmaster for use on the web prior to completion of the official Almy drawing.
The third group with names beginning with "patch" were scanned from the official 2008 tippet patch for various uses. File patch4944x7296.png is the original large, 44 MB image.
The fourth group were created from various REC sources.
