Crustacean Photos
Are the photos you uploaded of the crustaceans yours? We need to get licensing information on them. --Jomegat (talk) 07:07, 1 December 2014 (EST)
They are all my own photos. I will only upload my own imagery. The options for licensing appear to have an odd limit in regards to those that are personally created (limited only to CopyLeft). I am willing to place them there if necessary, though I am not entirely sure that is how they should be marked. CopyLeft has some unique allowances and restrictions, but perhaps I am misunderstanding the licensing requirements.
- First, thank you - very nice work!
- Second, CopyLeft is what has made this Wiki possible. Most of the images used here came from (and are hosted by) the Wikimedia Commons, and a lot of the content was imported from Wikipedia. This was done before the NAD adopted the project. Because so much of the material is CopyLeft, it makes it a lot easier to license the work as a whole. Yes, this means that it can be used commercially as long as the contributors get attribution.
- The only images we have on the Wiki right now that do not fall under a CC-BY-SA license (or the like) are the Insignia images. The NAD allows those to be used in connection with PF ministries, and so any commercial user would have to strip those out (or get permission from the NAD) before offering it for sale.
- I can tell you that over a hundred of the photos here are my work, and that I upload them to the Wikimedia Commons and license them with CC-BY-SA. Many are used in Wikipedia, and I know of a few that have been used commercially (I've been contacted a couple of times for that, which I thought was pretty cool). I like to "give back" since CopyLeft is what made all of this possible.
