Sporran Images
Please do not copy images off other websites and submit them to Wikipedia as your own work. These are invariably copyright violations. Thanks. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 12:59, 20 October 2015 (UTC).

When did you take these photographs? Your photo of the sporran that you uploaded here;

is identical, down to the placement of all the individual hairs, tassels and threads to all these images on commercial websites here;

Are all these websites using copies of your photograph? Can you demonstrate this? Thanks? -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 19:26, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for your message. Forgive me for sounding sceptical. Many people will swear blind that they made, and own the copyright, on photographs that are quite obviously "stolen" from other websites. What you suggest sounds like a good idea to remove all doubt. Just be sure you're acquainted with what releasing them to Wikipedia means. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia! -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 13:01, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
