This image was uploaded in the PNG image format. However, it contains visible lossy compression artifacts. These artifacts may have come from the JPEG format, from saving a single colorful image as GIF instead of PNG or from saving an animated GIF using the incorrect settings (See also Dither). If possible, please provide a superior version of this file, derived from a non-lossy source (or with artifacts removed). If applicable, please replace all instances of the artifact version throughout Wikimedia projects, tag the old version with one of these templates, and remove this tag.

This image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.
It is recommended to name the SVG file “SS collar, sleeve and shoulder insignia 1945.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
