Chauncey Billups pic
[edit]Hi, a couple of things:
- When you upload an image, you shouldn't overwrite a perfectly good image like you did with File:ChaunceyBillups.jpg. Unless you're fixing an error on correcting an existing image, give it a new name so other users can still use the old image if they want to.
- When you uploaded your new Billups image, you didn't provide any source information - where you found it, who took the photo, when the photo was taken, who owns the copyright, etc. That information is all necessary to so an admin can determine we are legally allowed to use the picture. If you don't provide the information, the image will be deleted.
Thanks, and let me know if you have any questions. Ytoyoda (talk) 22:55, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
