User talk:AidanGrey

It's up, finally!!
Hi Larry! I'm going to send an email too, just in case, but I wanted to let you know that after much whining, screaming, and begging, the bug is fixed, and your bio is now online.

Thanks so much for making these photos available to everyone, and for letting us use them too. Your work is truly appreciated.

Best wishes, and Happy New Year! Aidan

Photos used and...
OK. What would you like to talk about concerning the images. We can talk here if you want. I am watching your talk page, so I'll know when you have replied -Nv8200p talk 21:41, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi Larry!

Well, currently, under the GFDL licenses, we're using a whole mess of your photos. Just for example, here's one of around 10 or so:

http://www.homeandabroad.com/c/65/Site/93314_Austin_History_Center_visit.html

While I think we're well within the terms of the license, there has been some confusion regarding our use of some photos (images uploaded illegally, people add them, then change their mind and apply a more restrictive license, etc.). So I have 2 things I'd like to get from you, if you're amenable.

First, an okay from you that we can continue to use your images. And if that is fine, then second, because we've got so many of your images, I'd like to put a photo of yourself and a bio up on our site as one of our contributing photographers.

How do you feel about this?

Best, Aidan

A full list of the 9 sites where we're using one of your images: Austin History Center Barton Creek Greenbelt Capitol Complex Visitors Center East 6th Street Frank Erwin Center French Legation Museum Inner Space Cavern Umlauf Sculpture Garden & Museum Zilker Playground

Aidan,

I am proud you have found a few of my images worthy to use on your web site. I agree you are using the images within the terms of the license and I will be glad to provide any additional verification you need for your records about the licenses the images were released under. I can post something here or I can send you an e-mail stating the fact or if you have something prepared, you can send it to me and I can can validate it. Let me know what you need.

It would be cool to have a photo and bio on you site as a contributor. You can snag the image I use on my user page at Image:Larry moore 2006.jpg. It is probably one of the best recent pictures of me. If you need higher resolution, let me know and I'll look for the original file of the image. I'll write up a brief bio and post it here as soon as I can.

If you ever need more images of Austin or the surrounding areas, let me know. I'll be glad to help if I can.

Thanks, Larry

Larry,

I can use what you've said here, which should cover any confusions or concerns a user may have, so no need for anything else; this should be fine... I may use some of your other Austin photos - I'm doing cleanup/maintenance on our images right now, and have discovered new gaps to fill.

I'll use the image you linked to for the bio photo; it should be fine. Send me a bio when you have a chance, but you have time - technical issues mean that it will likely be a couple weeks at least before I'm able to post it.

Thanks a bunch! Aidan

Aidan,

Please help yourself to any of my images you can use. If there is some image of Austin you need to fill a gap that you cannot find, I can see if I can get a shot and post it on the Wikimedia Commons for you to look at and decide if you want to use it.

Regards, Larry

Thanks a million, Larry. I've found 3 others: Oakwood Cemetery Texas State Capitol Lundberg Bakery

Sweet!

Here's my bio whenever you are ready for it. Feel free to edit as needed:

Austin has grown from a mid-size, laid back, college town in the 1970s to a bustling metro area of more then a million people today. Larry D. Moore has watched the transformation over the past 35+ years he has lived in the Austin area and has been photographing the metamorphosis almost has long. Starting as a photographer for his high school newspaper and yearbook, Larry branched out to shooting a few weddings and a short stint running the black & white darkroom at a local photo lab. In the past year, he made the transition from film to digital and is still learning the techniques of the "digital darkroom." Today, he is an active image contributor and editor on Wikipedia. See more of his work at commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Larry_D._Moore

Larry likes to travel the backroads of Texas and sample the Tex-Mex food along the way. He loves to play volleyball or go hiking. His favorite things to photograph are historic structures and the natural beauty of Texas.

And another: Governor's Mansion of Texas. Just an update - we're having tech difficulties with bios, but I'm bugging them constantly to fix it. Once your bio is up, I'll let you know. I haven't forgotten about you! :)

Sounds good.

Larry
