Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Corvus5!

First steps tutorial Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. Getting help More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Hello. You have uploaded a screenshot but didn't specify a license (which is necessary).

For free screenshots of free software (so they are derivatives of only free works), it may look like this: {{Free screenshot|{{GPL}}}}, which means GPLv2+. More GPL tags can be found in Category:License tags share-alike.

Also, if you are the author of the screenshot, and know who the authors of the original works (icons et al) are, and all of the works are free, you shouldn't say "found the image on Google or a random website".

Deleted files can be easily undeleted by administrators (you can ask for that here). There is no need to upload them again (files are usually not actually deleted but only hidden from non-administrators).

I have renamed the newly uploaded copy into Image:UltraStar 070beta 01 440.jpg, so the name says what the image is about.

Thanks.
