Seeking GFDL high-res photos of human models in standard anatomical position for use in article on anatomical terms of location. I have a long list of preferences/requirements for these, but won't post them here. If you're interested, please leave me a message on my talk page and I'd be more than happy to blather on about what I want and what I want to do with them. Thanks. Esseh 17:20, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

• Woman - There has been a debate for years on Talk:Woman over the appropriate lead image. A possible consensus seems to be developing that a new nude photo would do the trick; the current nude photo candidates are considered either too culturally specific or not unprurient enough. The basic criteria are: an unexceptional woman (in age, weight, etc - between 15-85 percentile among mature women); naked; no background; and some aspect, such as an engaged expression, that specifically tends to give the photo a non-prurient aspect. See the discussion there for details. --Homunq 00:30, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Homunq, agreed. Actually, I want one (actually, several, from different angles - and a man as well) in standard anatomical position, which should not be viewed as prurient at all. I was going to wade in on the woman site, but frankly, the discussion is tedious and circular. (I honestly thought Frau-2 was perfect for that site - even if it wouldn't work for mine due to the body/arm/leg positions.) Let me know if you find one. Esseh 02:55, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

• Inverted nipple would be greatly improved by photos. It would be good if we could get images for male and female inverted nipples. Joie de Vivre 00:00, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Mon cher (ma chère) joie. Unfortunately, despite claims that Wikipedia is not censored, most of the editors, and most of its photographers, are; self-censorship is the worst and most insidious kind. Bonne chance! And if you do find something useful, ket me know where you found it! Esseh 05:39, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

• Moustache - just a plain, generic, "everyman's" mustache. --Midnightdreary 04:14, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
  • it might be nice to have examples of different sorts of moustaches. Here's an "everyman" candidate: [1], and a nice handlebar moustache: [2]

• We need a video of a woman orgasming because there is already one of a man ejaculating.

• Template:Exploding organisms needs a non-copyrighted picture of an exploding or exploded animal, preferably one of the ones on the list there. This is important, since a recent TfD (keep) held consensus that its current image was too silly, and should be replaced. The only non-copyrighted one I could find that was related was Image:Dog mine.jpg, which doesn't illustrate the idea of explosion well. Nihiltres^(t.c.s) 13:44, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

• Dinosaurs - Wikipedia has plenty of pictures of most familiar genera found in North America or England (Triceratops, Scelidosaurus, Diplodocus, etc). We appear to have few if any photographs of dinosaurs from eastern Asia, South America, Africa, or Australia. A quick photo-visit to a museum on any of these continents would be a huge boon to Wikipedia's 1,300 dinosaur articles. Firsfron of Ronchester 04:34, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

(The distinction is explained on the talk page) -Goldom (t) (Review) 18:45, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
  • There's this Rock melon by Charles Norton (died 1872). The web site makes a questionable claim to "reproduction rights" (but not copyright). IANAL, so I have no idea if this claim is worth anything. Zeimusu | Talk page 03:24, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
  • So, you're looking for pictures of this melon (found on this page)? ···日本穣^{? · Talk to Nihonjoe} 07:01, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
  • What about this, from this page? (SEWilco 04:14, 16 July 2007 (UTC))
  • To the above: common US market = not real cantaloupes (imho). But this seems to be a really real Cucumis melo cantalupensis here. Not very good picture quality though. But with a CreativeCommons license...--83.76.186.14 (talk) 21:43, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
  • I've seen the melon requested for sale in New England for a short time in the summer months. It was called an "Athena Melon" I think. When it is available again I'll take some pics for you, cut ones too. Kresock (talk) 00:58, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Graphic designer needed

I'm looking for a skilled graphic designer.

I need an image for a non-barnstar Wikipedia award with the theme "World Traveler".

I was thinking perhaps the following image, without the barnstar, and with the globe (or another one) superimposed over the Wikipedia globe (or the Wikipedia globe superimposed over it) - I'd like to see the world's countries and the puzzle pieces (with the continents more prominent).

The image also needs a passport laying on the surface beneath the globe stand (where its shadow is, but the shadow should be retained as well). The image's background must be transparent (not white like the background of the image below).

Is this something you can do?

If so, please contact me on my talk page.

I look forward to your reply.

A pic of a "champagne"- or "cognac"-colored diamond would also be nice. These pics could be reused at Diamond (a featured article) and elsewhere. Thanks! - Bantman 17:39, August 15, 2005 (UTC)
  • I added a picture of pink diamonds from the GIA website. My company owns plenty of pink diamonds but I don't think I'm allowed to release photographs of them! They are really beautiful. Same with cognac and champagne diamonds. Pictures don't truly do them justice.--Magmagirl 21:31, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
    • I don't know about you releasing photos from your own company, but you're definitely not allowed to use GIA website photos without permission (notice the copyright info at the bottom of the page you used). I left a note at your user page too; I'm afraid the picture needs to be deleted. - Bantman 21:55, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
