Thanks for telling me
I will try to solve this. Thanks again.
I see you are an experienced user, but nobody has given you yet an "official" welcome. Let me have the honor:
Our first steps help file and our FAQ will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy. You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold contributing here and assume good faith for the intentions of others. This is a wiki - it is really easy. More information is available at the Community Portal. You may ask questions at the Help desk, Village Pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons. You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at Commons talk:Licensing. |

About the Wookiepiedia logo
Sorry. Someone else complained about it earlier. Until then, I thought that GFDL applied. When I uploaded the image, the page where I got it stated that GFDL did apply. However, the person that complained mentioned derivative works. I am not aware of any solutions on Wookiepedia's end. However, they might create a non-derivative version. If so, please note the difference. Will (Talk - contribs) 06:11, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
Tip: Categorizing images
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.BotMultichillT 06:19, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

- Re your comment at File talk:Livestrong wristband worn.jpg, as the file has already been deleted, review the information at COM:UNDEL to see how to have that decision reconsidered.. —Danorton (talk) 19:10, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
- Restored the images in Commons and through wikis. Someone could probably open a deletion request to the file in the future but, seeing the arguments here for the rocking horses images, I think any DR on the wristbands is going to end in "keep". Sorry for any inconvenience. Cheers, KveD (talk) 19:38, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Please stop uploading copyright material
Sorry, but it looks like much of your uploads are derived from works that are still subject to copyright. Please review the Commons policies regarding Licensing and particularly regarding Derivative works. Please {{Speedydelete}} your prior uploads that do not comply. Thank you. —Danorton (talk) 06:20, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
