It is requested that a picture or pictures of this person be included in this article to improve its quality. Note: Wikipedia's non-free content use policy almost never permits the use of non-free images (such as promotional photos, press photos, screenshots, book covers and similar) to merely show what a living person looks like. Efforts should be made to take a free licensed photo during a public appearance, or obtaining a free content release of an existing photo instead.

[edit] Photo of Thanissaro Bhikkhu

Does someone know how to add a photo of Thanissaro Bhikkhu to the article. A photo can be found at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/karma-Buddhism/ Dhammapal 05:51, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Who owns the copyright for that image?—Nat Krause^(Talk!) 04:37, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

The source is Oberlin College Alumni Magazine

It doesn't sound like a commercial publication. Is it OK to post it then? Dhammapal 07:49, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

No, not without permission. It appears that the photograph is copyright of Jacquie Lowell, Oberlin Alumni Magazine, or Thanissaro himself. If we're going to use it, we need to find out who owns it and get their express permission. If you do contact them, it's vital that you make it clear you're asking for permission to release it under GFDL, Creative Commons (CC-by-sa, CC-by, or CC-sa) license, or the public domain.—Nat Krause^{(Talk!·What have I done?)} 22:12, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
