Images

Thank you for editing Kodak Retina Ia. However, another user (U. kulick) swiftly came along and changed the image, noting in an SGML comment:

@Kb244: Don't use Karl Blessing's images, take those of the camerapedia image pool!!!! In this case there was no need to replace the good and detailed image!!! If you can offer images for other cameras, please load them up into our Flickr Group camerapedia.

I think he overdoes the exclamation points; but that minor matter aside, he's right.

If you think that the image you linked to is better (perhaps because it's of a variant that's closer to what's described in the text), and if it is in the public domain or released under GFDL, you can upload it to Flickr and link to that. For details, please see Adding images. But as long as there is any question about the copyright status of the image, please do not upload it.

I think that U. kulick would join me in regretting that we have to be so strict about this kind of thing -- but it's not us who writes the relevant copyright and other relevant laws, and we have to be strict. -- Hoary 04:56, 19 May 2007 (EDT)

Identity

Hello Kb244,

It seems from your previous contributions that you are Karl Blessing. This is not so obvious from your user name, and U. Kulick and Hoary thought that you were using an image without permission. Of course, if the image is yours, you are welcome to contribute it. Could you please confirm that Kb244 and Karl Blessing are the same person, so that the sort of quiproquo does not arise any more?
