Weedy Seadragon
Hi, Just letting you know that your image Image:WeedySeadragon.jpg has been made a one of our Featured pictures. Thank you for this upload.


 * And to follow up on that, Image:WeedySeadragon.jpg will be Picture of the Day on the 11th March. The associated caption is pretty close to the main article, but you can check and correct the caption at Picture of the day/March 11, 2005. -- Solipsist 21:56, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Photo Gallery
Hi Rling, I recently recieved a photographic barnstar, and clicked on the barnstar to see who else had recieved the honor. I came across you and was wondering if you had a photo gallery where I could see some examples of your work. --Fir0002 11:49, Jun 26, 2005 (UTC)

Wikimania competition
I thought you might like to know that since one of you images was one of the most popular WP:FPC nominations this year, I've entered it into the Wikimania Media Competition -- Solipsist 19:55, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

Maybe you could upload a larger (in filesize) version of Image:Phyllopteryx taeniolatus1.jpg. The compression artifacts can be noticed. Thank you. --Ysangkok 22:09, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:WIRES Logo.png
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:WIRES Logo.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- SilentAria talk 11:42, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:WIRES Logo.png
 Thanks for uploading File:WIRES Logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:


 * I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
 * I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
 * If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
 * To opt out of these bot messages, add  to your talk page.
 * If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 05:30, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
