Image Tagging Image:White Hart Lane Spurs V Torino.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:White Hart Lane Spurs V Torino.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{self|cc-by-sa-3.0}} to release it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful informations about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

Attribution[edit]
I would like to remix/adapt one of your images (Sooty Tern Bird) to be part of the logo for my photography company. It will be adapted to look like a hand-drawn sketch rather than a photograph. How, when using it in my logo, can I attribute the image to you? I have a website where I can attribute my logo image to you, but I am unsure if there is a realistic way of attributing the image to you on all documentation that contains my logo, e.g. photos with my logo in the corner. Please advise. I would love to use your image but will not do so if attributing the image to you on my website does not adequately attribute your work.00:38, 23 September 2010 (UTC)Photogirl
Hi Photogirl! Edit the picture in any way you wish and attribute it in any way you want, I took the picture a while back and if it's easy for you to make some reference to me, it would be nice to be acknowledged but if it's too tasking, it's simply not a problem. I'd love to see what you do with it however, but enjoy! 11:54, 23 September 2010 (User:tribalninja)
Thank you so much!! It reminds me of the birds I saw when I lived overseas in Romania, and it's a beautiful shot. I'm in the process of building my website, and I will try to figure out a good way to attribute it to you. I'll post a link when I have the website w/ logo up! 19:23, 23 September 2010 (UTC)Photogirl
