Hello Noodle snacks!
Thank you for providing images to the Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.
To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate topic pages, categories, optionally galleries, or both of them (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.
You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.
The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on the Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!
Thank you. Finn Rindahl 18:05, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Flash lighting and more
Hey NS, Hope yr feeling better. After reading Richard's comments and yours at FPC about a flash diffuser, I built myself one, and the results were pretty good. If you get the time, please see my nomination of the flesh fly at en fpc. Regarding the flash bracket. Google doesn't provide much info. What is it? A soft box I presume would be a diffuser, right? Another dumb question, what is the off axis flash method? Muhammad 19:26, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Depression Glassware
Hi Noodle snacks,
was there any discussion/consensus about emptying the gallery Depression Glassware? You'll surely know that a gallery is not the same as a category and serves a different purpose. As one can see, the images in the gallery all had small caption explaining what is shown, whereas in the cat you have to click on each image to know what is shown. In case there was no discussion before that move, I would strongly prefer to maintain the gallery (in addition to the cat). The avoid a preemptive deletion I've reverted your changes to the gallery, for the moment. --Túrelio (talk) 11:25, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Size of your images
Hi. Is there nothing that can convince you to submit large versions of your often very good quality (both in composition and technical prowess) images? Lycaon (talk) 18:14, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
[edit] my conspiracy brain problem
When I first started to watch the goings on at FPC I was surprised/horrified to discover that photographers were being encouraged to use scaling to sharpen their fuzzy and not focused images. I got a little script from one of the GIMP gurus who preceeded me and put it here to show my sarcasm at the process. Lately, that kind of thing has disappeared there mostly.
I rely too much on others knowing the camera and the size that can be expected from -- just to let you know of one of my many problems.
But this is what always happens now when I read one of them commenting that a larger version should be uploaded: I always think that the review system is being used for sales of the higher resolutions. And, I always think that and my thoughts like this might be due to facts of genetics that haven't been established yet or because of my experience with the pettiness of photographers and their often complicated justification system.
I am curious to read your answer to this problem that is in my mind. -- carol (talk) 13:10, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you for your honest answer. The abuse of the voting mechanism here that leads to the enabling of idiots and even more abusers of the voting mechanism here -- not uploading the high resolutions of an image is among the least of the abuses that occur. See this interesting discussion which is one of the motivations that I suggest to supercede FPC and look for Featured Administrators and their contribution to show on the Main Page for a while.
- People are not so much like photographs, are they? I admit that some of my reaction to the down-sizing as a means to make a photograph acceptable felt personal as well as not making sense for actual image work.
- I have decided lately that people are more like paintings than photographs and all of my down scaling horror applies there as well both in actuality and representationally. Not always strongly defined blotches of blended colors, rarely with the "noise" problem and quality gets hurt by the jpeg artifact thing that helps photographs appear to be more sharp. The paintings I have been working on -- the prints are old and time has changed the ink and perhaps time has changed the subject also. This image shown here is causing me problems. Every current photograph of this species has flowers which are yellow. The way that this one particular substance which might have been used to make inks from goes from red/blue to blue/green also makes sense for restoring this image -- but it makes the flowers more purple and not yellow.
- Getting attention at FPC does not seem to improve an uploaders willingness to collaborate. Monopolizing the nomination system at both en:FPC and here -- the proof the the assumption is long overdue. I might be at the beginning of campaigning to have FPC superceded and you do not seem to need the attention there so perhaps I campaign here some.
- Thanks again for your honest answer and the space to campaign for a clean up if that is what I am doing. -- carol (talk) 04:01, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Hello Noodle snacks!
Thank you for providing images to Wikimedia Commons. Commons images are used by editors on many projects in many languages. Each image is put into categories. This helps other editors find them. Please add categories to each image you upload.
To add an image to a category, add the following code to the end of the page.
- [[Category:Category Name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbit of comets, add the following to the image description page:
- [[Category:Astronomy diagrams]]
- [[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories: Astronomy diagrams, Comets.
For further information on categories read Commons:Categories.
The CommonSense Tool often helps you find the best category for your image.
Here is a gallery of your images. Please check that each image has a category. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the help desk. Thank you.

[edit] Relicensing
Hey Noodle snacks, sorry, but you can absolutely not relicense you images to a more restrictive GFDL-1.2 only license. I'm reverting your changes. --Dschwen (talk) 15:59, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
Creative Commons licenses are non-revocable, so the original licences should stand (as now reverted back). See Frequently Asked Questions. Snowmanradio (talk) 17:14, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
- There is a difference between revoking a liscence, and removing it from an image page (distribution). Fir0002 for example has changed liscensing on all of his images by changing a template (which went unnoticed). Please learn the difference between yourevokation and distribution, and be considerably more careful before using administrative tools to make bulk edits (by your own definition have "revoked" a large number of GDFL-1.2 liscences).Noodle snacks (talk) 02:04, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Lens
Hi Noodlesnacks. Buy a Sigma 150mm or a Tamron 180mm if you want to have the maximum distance (40cm). If you are very rich buy the Canon 180mm which is the best in that class (workmanship, autofocus). A very good start could be the Tamron 90mm Macro (dist. 30cm). A shorter tubus or better said less tele produces picures with more plasticity because the 180mm/150mm gun barrels does sometimes very flat images. A used 90mm isn't very expensive at ebay - you should try this first IMO . If you are getting more and more addicted to macrophotography then you must by hook or by crook buy a big motor pool of macro lenses --> 50mm, 90mm, 180mm, loupe lens. Hope I helped a bit, reg. --Richard Bartz (talk) 02:09, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
[edit] photo license request - Silvereye
Hi Noodlesnacks,
Here at the American Printing House for the Blind, a not for profit agency, it is our mission to provide educational materials for students with visual impairments and blindness. We are currently developing an atlas for students with partial sight. In the product we need a photo of a Silvereye from Tasmania. We found one here on Wikipedia
We noticed that you are the owner of the original image and are now seeking permission from you to use the image in our atlas, Address: Earth.We know you have given Creative Commons 3.0 permission but our agency requres that we keep a statement from you which gives us permission to use the image in our atlas. We like your image because it has the high contrast and clarity needed by students with visual impairments and it is beautiful.
I promise you our students will receive much educational value from your photo. We will, of course give proper credit to you and print an URL of your choice in close proximity to the photo. We will also use the Creative Commons statement if you desire it.
Please consider our request and get back with me when you have determined your answer. If you decide to let us use the photo, we have downloaded the high resolution image.
Thank you very much for your consideration,
Elaine Kitchel Research Scientist American Printing House for the Blind 1839 Frankfort Ave. Louisville, KY 40206 (800) 223-1839 ext: 313 www.aph.org/

Hello,
I am going to give you some unwanted advice, but I think its probely for the best when you withdraw yourself out of the rfa. The change is very small that you will suceed and I think it is better to withdraw with 5 oppose that close the rfa with 10+ oppose.

[edit] More unwanted advice ;-)
Hey Noodle snacks, I realize your weren't asking for it, but let me still give you this little tip on how to make your uploading more comfortable: Disable the new Upload form completely in your preferences and add the following text to your monobook.js. This will automatically prefill the textfield with some boilerplate text (you should adjust it) and it will change the "upload file" link in the sidebar to directly point to the "own work" form instead of making you jump through hoops.
//
// Insert a personalized Texttemplate into the Special:Upload edit box.
//
function delayedUpdateSpecialUpload()
{
var editbox = document.getElementById('wpUploadDescription');
editbox.value = "{"+"{Information\n"
+ "|Description={{de|}} {{en|}}\n"
+ "|Source={{own}}\n"
+ "|Date=\n"
+ "|Author=[[User:Noodle snacks|Noodle snacks]]\n"
+ "|Permission=See license\n"
+ "|other_versions=\n"
+ "}"+"}\n\n"
+ "== Licensing ==\n"
+ "" // put your personal template here
+ " |{"+"{self|GFDL-1.2|author=I, [[User:Noodle snacks|Noodle snacks]]}"+"}";
}
function setSpecialUploadTemplate()
{
var uploadURL = 'http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Upload&uselang=ownwork';
// I upload mostly my own work
document.getElementById('n-uploadbtn').firstChild.href = uploadURL;
// preload input form
if(window.location.href == uploadURL) setTimeout( "delayedUpdateSpecialUpload()", 500 );
}
addOnloadHook(setSpecialUploadTemplate);
Ok, it is only a suggestion. If you choose to implement it I'd be glad to help you adapt it to your needs. --Dschwen (talk) 15:09, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Your RfA
Hi Noodle snacks,
I'm afraid I had to close your RfA as unsuccessful, given the amount of opposes. I think there were good, constructive criticisms in there that you may wish to think about before trying again. Anyway, thanks for all your excellent work on Commons, I hope to see more of it :). Cheers, Patrícia msg 14:52, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi Noodle snacks - these are both cultivated Picea abies. Can I add a plea, always include the location of where photos are taken, it can be valuable information! Thanks, - MPF (talk) 14:32, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks! If you don't want to give away the exact location of your garden (very understandable!), a general comment and location (e.g., "cultivated, Tasmania") is still a big help. As an aside, am I right in guessing you're on Tasmania, going by your other photos? If yes, is there any chance you could get photos of some of Tasmania's native conifers? Commons is very sadly deficient in photos of Athrotaxis cupressoides, Athrotaxis selaginoides, Callitris oblonga, Callitris rhomboidea, Diselma archeri, Microstrobos niphophilus, Phyllocladus aspleniifolius, Podocarpus alpinus, etc. (spot the red links, that's how bad it is!!). If you can get them, that would be really great; I can help out with idents, and perhaps locations from literature citations. - MPF (talk) 14:10, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

- It is not a case of misplaced templates. I intentionally added a by User:Noodle snacks to have the bot put the notification here. It seems appropriate to notify the author of the picture to encourage him to participate in QI as well. People complained to me before when they as the nominator got notified instead of the author. I guess you just cannot please everybody.... --Dschwen (talk) 16:56, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
- Aaaaaaaaaand, it seems that I mixed up the credit :-). Hm. My bad! --Dschwen (talk) 16:57, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
- Might I suggest that a new template be created, specifically to inform picture creators that their work has been promoted? Then you can put one on each page; to inform both parties. Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 09:02, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Sample Text -Congratulations! Your image, File:Palazzo Cavalli-Franchetti WB.jpg, which was nominated by USER:USER for Quality Image status, was reviewed and has now been promoted. If you would like to nominate an image, please do so at Quality images candidates. Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 09:06, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Sure, you can also create the template and you can hand it out. The suggestion is good, don't get me wrong, it is also not new :-). It would complicate the nomination process, if the bot should handle notifying the creator. The creator would have to be specified manually, it is not trivial to determine. The benefit would be minimal since mostly people nominate their own images (which is sort of the point of QI, maximizing throughput, it is not supposed to be a badge of honor, but a tool to build a collection of images adhering to a minimal technical standard for the end user). --Dschwen (talk) 13:29, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Not sure what your issues are with that image, but the large wide margins filled with featureless white background do not add anything useful to the image with regards to how it might be displayed in Wikipedia articles etc., and the previous version (listed as "21:17, 12 March 20" on the image description page, but actually uploaded Feb 2nd.) was also cropped...

Hey, have you considered the fact that anyone who aspires to create attractive photos and looks at your work will become despondent? Just my backwards way of saying, well done! Cheers. --KenWalker (talk) 06:17, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Camera info template
Hi,
As I monitor every (I try at least :-) VI, QI and FI promotion to write description in french, I came across many of your pictures. Firstly, congratulations for all the nice pictures (for what it is worth, as I am no photographer :-).
I noticed you use User:Aka/Camera, and I was wondering if you knew about {{Photo Information}} and if you had any reason for not using it. If you do not mind, next time I edit one of your picture, could I move those info to the standard and localised template? Except if you see a problem in that, of course.
Cheers, Jean-Fred (talk) 21:00, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
- No worries, I stopped adding the template for time reasons. Noodle snacks (talk) 02:17, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Commons FP
But what is Commons FP for? en:WP has full access to the whole image set, and their own FP process to highlight images that suit them, as do the other language wikis. What are we trying to achieve with FP on commons? --Tony Wills (talk) 02:08, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
- I couldn't tell you. It isn't really encyclopaedic/valuable images (no wow). Seems to be more or less the pretty ones with some constraints (resolution, licence, image quality, not a war photo). What it is and what it should be differ in my opinion. The process is defined the people that participate (it is a vote), not the criteria, so it isn't going to change in a hurry in my view.

[edit] Re: accidental duplication
File:Ara militaris -Cougar Mountain Zoological Park-8c.jpg. The author of this image uploaded a few from his collection from Cougar Mountain which were already on flickr. In some cases my image had a better name and so his were deleted. You will see from this image that a bespoke flickrreveiw tag was added after upload because the user wished for a lessor used license, as did many of his own uploads. It might help if the flickrreview tag was added to your images to reduce the number of accidental duplications. The licence on flickr would need to match with one of the licenses on commons. I wonder the the 1.2 license is redundant being the most restrictive. Snowmanradio (talk) 09:34, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Help with PS
Hi Noodle snacks. Let's say I open an image in CS3, do not do any edit to the image at all, and save it. The quality (the sky mostly) is getting worse than in the original. Could you please explain me why? Thank you.--Mbz1 (talk) 14:19, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
-
- I already know :) Please ignore my question.--Mbz1 (talk) 20:40, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
- I'm assuming that the answer was a result of the natural properties of the .jpg format, which cause the file to lose quality every time you save it? :P Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 13:04, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
