Welcome!
Welcome!

Hello, Kdrayf02, and welcome to Wikipedia! I have noticed that you are fairly new! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. I also see that some of your recent edits, such as the ones to the page Gladys Knight, show an interest in the use of images and/or photos on Wikipedia.

Did you know that ...
 * ...Wikipedia has a very stringent image use policy?
 * ...most images from Flickr, online news websites, and other web sources are copyrighted?
 * ...Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously?
 * ...freely-licensed images should be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, a central location for images where they can be used on all Wikipedia projects?
 * ...we recommend that new users use our "files for upload" process - at least until you get the hang of things?

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type  on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Karst Karst (talk) 16:00, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

Hello! Thank you for your recent contributions to Peabo Bryson. I did have one note for you. I am working on a maintenance project to clean up Category:Pages using infoboxes with thumbnail images. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

SomeImage.jpg

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!!

I am not sure what you mean. These pictures are not thumbnails.

Youtube screen grabs
Just to clarify, I'm afraid that screen grabs from videos that you have shot yourself and then uploaded to Youtube cannot be used here. They need to have clear copyright clearance. Did you perhaps take any still photographs at these concerts? They can be released under a Creative Commons licence through Flickr. Karst (talk) 22:46, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

These images all belong to me. I took several still photos at every show that my images came from. There are a few screen shots but from clips that I didnt share with the public. I screen shotted because I couldn't really get any good stills while sitting in the audience at a concert.
