Copyvio[edit]

Nobody has ever told the image came from Picasa; the original uploader, David Gaya, has stated this photograph is his own work (licensed under GFDL). Only long afterwards has the Picasa link been added, but only as a reference for the stated height (which was incorrect, anyway). The name “Ryan McConnell” has also been only vandalism (not reverted, unfortunately). --Mormegil (talk) 16:36, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, I misread that. Of course I now see the Picasa image is different. Sorry about that. Dcoetzee (talk) 21:51, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm the author of the picture and the original uploader. Unfortunately I don't have the energy it takes to fight vandalism and copyright violation of my work. Thanks Mormegil for putting things clear. --David Gaya (talk) 08:54, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
