Feature Pictures[edit]

Your image with the new license tag

Hey Charlax. I hope you aren't upset about the votes for the featured pictures in the Wikimedia Commons. You should go on trying! :-) For your image: Utah dort.png, I moved the license tag outside the description so that now if you look into your gallery [1], it now is recognised as licensed. Before it was LOOKING unlicensed (even though it really is) which can cause some problems in the future. So it would be great if you can either select the copyright from the scroll-down menu when uploading or adding a tag ([2]see here for tags) later on like you did with the categories. And you did a good job for putting your pictures into the matching categ's. That was quite a project, huh? Thanks for your work here. I will see you 'round! -- Boereck 14:33, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
