[edit] Image:XN Power pole 02.jpg

Hi XN, I noticed you uploaded two versions of this image. I'm pretty sure they're the same? Just so you know, the MediaWiki software automatically scales all images, so it's not necessary to upload "thumbnails". :) lovely image, BTW. I love symmetry. cheers, pfctdayelise (translate?) 03:21, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi pfctdayelise, these are different versions. I'd tried one version for the featured pictures. One user comes with the idea of symmetry. I'd rotated the original a bit and have done a little crop for the file in the symmetry category. Regards --XN 07:27, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: wallpapers

Hey XN. Glad you like the idea. :) You'll no doubt hear from me again before they're finalised. I added your suggestion for the flowers. It seems a bit "busy" to me, plus that big blurry square on the right, but I haven't tested any out as actual wallpapers yet. That's one of the next steps. If you want, you can help me choose. :) pfctdayelise (translate?) 21:53, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

This works fine on my desktop - the blurry regions are good counterparts for these "busy" ones ;) I don't think that I have enough time left to test some of the other wallpapers. But if I have, I will report you. --XN 09:24, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nice picture!

I really like the picture Image:XN Centaurea cyanus 00.jpg. Good compositon and nice colorplacement... Chrizz 19:03, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks :) ! Though the color is a bit tricky... I saw this pretty barleycorn field from far because of the bright blue aspect. Unfortunately the sun disappears behind some clouds in the same moment. Too bad! Soon I can upload an overview picture of this aspect. Regards --XN 19:30, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] An invitation

Thank you for your invitation. Currently I havn't enough time to contribute to another project, I'm sorry. Further on, I am not a professional and have to learn these guidelines by myself ;) Regards --XN 12:58, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Hoverfly_on_flower-2.jpg

Hi,

your photograph doesn't show a howerfly (afaik not even a fly). This is more likely a bee. --XN 02:52, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Thank you for noting. You are right, of course, Lycaon already noted it must be a solitary bee. But it is not convenient to alter the file name now because the picture is in COM:FPC - Alvesgaspar 07:40, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello XN!

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.
