Can we get the black border around the image removed? --thedemonhog talkedits 05:52, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

More to the point. It is still a non free image on the main page. Possibly the licence tag is wrong and the image is public domain by age, but no-one really did anything when I pointed this out a few days ago at WT:NFCC and some other places. I should have raised the matter again, but didn't have time. People normally only notice this when the image is a publicity image, a book cover, a contemporary artwork, or some screenshot from a film or video game. Seems people assume this one's OK and don't bother to check like they would if it was a Star Wars image, or something. I suggested using the statue picture from the article, but due to statues not being covered by freedom of panaorama in the US, the same copyright questions apply. Oh, and the black border? Not really a major problem, in my opinion. Carcharoth 08:48, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
