P.S. One last helpful hint. To sign your posts like I did above (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
I have deleted the article Warlock.jpg that you created: there was no need to create this article. If you need to find the image again it can be found at Image:Warlock.jpg. -- Graham :) | Talk 00:26, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Image description page
Hi there, thanks for your image contributions. Could you please make sure to include the appropriate image copyright tags on the images you upload? I've modified a few for you, but it would be great if you could add this information to the rest that you uploaded.
See, for example, Image:Hann_logo_7.jpg for a good image description. Oh, and welcome to Wikipedia!

[edit] Image copyrights
Hi. I saw the images you added to Michaelangelo (Ninja Turtle) et al, and I wasn't sure about the copyright status. Can you clarify where you got them? You should probably add that info on the image page (Image:Michael1.jpg). Best of luck, Meelar 01:13, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Hi-- Welcome to Wikipedia. It is great that you are enthusiastic about contributing material. However, it appears that you may have not seen or read the Wikipedia:Image use policy page. Unfortunately, you can't just grab a good picture from a web site and stick it here; it really does need to have permission. Also, when you do find pictures that can be legitimately used, you need to give them a proper descriptive file name. For example, "casthp.jpg" gives no indication that it shows the cast of Max Headroom. And you need to document the source where you got them and their copyright status. I hope this doesn't sound too discouraging, but I'm sure you'll be up to speed in no time. --Amillar 22:45, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Hi, Donar, I liked the picture you uploaded of Uncle Sam defending the Free World from a comic book villain. I doubt the use of the picture will harm comic book sales, so I expect we can probably use it as fair use, but we must attribute the source. Do you know which comic book (title, number, date, publisher, author/artists) came up with that frame? Who's the villain? All that would be good information to include on the image description page. We should definitely recognize the efforts of those whose picture we're borrowing. -- ke4roh 23:27, Jul 5, 2004 (UTC) (IANAL)
[edit] Image names and tags
It would appear WP needs to increase the font size on the upload page or make it blinking since you can't seem to be bothered with reading them.
Regarding Image:240x320.jpeg:
- You don't have a copyright tag
- You didn't link to the relevant article Gene Roddenberry
- You didn't give it a descriptive filename (240x320 isn't the kind of detail being asked for)
and as such, I've put it up for deletion (WP:IFD) at WP:IFD#March_2.
Although you haven't contributed to wikipedia in over 2 months, please read the text on the upload page before uploading another image. Thanks! Cburnett 21:20, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
