Image:HokieHockeyBird.jpg
Hi. I saw this image that you had uploaded. Unfortunately, even though you created it youself, it is a derivative work of the copyrighted Hokie Bird image and the trademarked VT/square root of one logo. As such, it cannot be considered a "free" image under Wikipedia's image use policy. I will retage it as a logo, but please keep in mind that some may not consider it essential to the article and so it may get nominated for deletion at some point. --BigDT 21:18, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:HokieHockeyBird.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
