- Sorry to start out with the notification of a problem image. carol (talk) 02:24, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the welcome.
I wish that they'd have verified with the image owner that the image was NOT copyrighted before marking it as such. But such is the spice that makes life worth living. KrazJoe ( ) 16:27, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
- Almost any image produced since about 1990 is copyrighted.Geni (talk) 16:36, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for that information - I was not aware of that. Regardless, I was informed by the city that the images were not copyrighted... That said, I'm done with this endeavor - if they're accepted, great - if not, at least I tried. Thanks again for the information - In the future I'll just stick to working with my own photos.
