Regarding the image you were trying to upload to List of U.S. state license plates: The image needs to be uploaded to Wikipedia before it can be displayed on a Wikipedia page. It won't work if you try to refer to something on aaroads.com, for example. A word of caution, though: In most cases, images on other web sites are copyrighted, and can't be uploaded to Wikipedia unless you get permission of the copyright owner. I found this out the hard way when I uploaded a Minnesota license plate to the same page. Even though the copyright policy on the State of Minnesota web site apparently said there was no copyright, I was told that it doesn't apply to images from the state web site.

See Copyrights for information on how this process works. I don't mean to scare you off, but just be careful in respect to copyrights. Happy editing! --Elkman - (Elkspeak) 14:11, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
