Add illustrations to the warning pop-ups

[nicolas-raoul]

We have many different possible warnings.
When uploading many pictures very quickly, there can be popup fatigue, meaning the user does not even read the message anymore.

If there was an illustration in the popup, the user would more reliably recognize the warning even at high speeds. For instance, in the middle of uploading 100 pictures without EXIF, the user would still react correctly if a "already on Commons" popup suddenly shows up, and would not skip it mechanically.

The illustrations should be compatible with our license, public domain is fine.

↑ This could be illustrated with: a person (or cute animal) looking at a map and surrounded with interrogation points, for instance.

Any idea to give the app a personality is also very welcome, by reusing the same character/theme/etc across all warning popup illustrations (and possibly in other parts of the app in the future).

I'm a computer science major interested in contributing to open source. Could you assign this issue to me?

@dohyun123 Sorry would you mind using the "unassigned bug" link at https://github.com/commons-app/commons-app-documentation/blob/master/android/Volunteers-welcome!.md#developers to find an issue to work on? Thanks a lot! :-)

1. Anyone willing to draw such illustrations?
2. If not, anyone opposed to generating these illustrations with GenAI?

Feel free to post your illustrations as comments below.
If your own work, please also write "I release these illustrations to public domain" (or Apache license 2.0).
If using GenAI, please link to the tool you used and write your prompts, so that we can generate similar looking ones in the future.
Thanks a lot!

Hello @nicolas-raoul sir I’ve designed an illustration for the warning pop-up "No Location Found"
Here’s the design:

Could you please check it and let me know if it works, or if you’d prefer any changes or a different design approach?
I’m happy to make adjustments if needed.

Also, I’m interested in completing this as part of my GSoC project. Looking forward to your feedback.

Thanks

@Akshaykomar890 This issue is reserved for GSoC, but yes that's roughly the idea. The hardest will be:

• getting the details right (for instance pins should not show people)
• having a coherent style/theme.
