As some of you may know, I have created the Fossil Wiki. The Wiki ANYONE can edit about fossils! :P

LINK: http://fossil.wikia.com/wiki/Fossil_Wiki

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has any copyright on their images in the gallery, or if I could use them for the wiki. Just wondering, and I was thinking it was better to be safe than sorry.

Thanks! B)

Tha tighin fodham, fodham, fodham!

Yes, STG, my images in the gallery are "copyrighted." That is, I have an interest in how they're used. If you'd like to use an image of mine, ask me on a case-by-case basis. I'd like to see your project succeed.

I will be contributing a lot of articles and filling out the basics when I have the time. It would be grat if everyone got onboard---this is a resource that I can see widely used in the future. Keep up the good work and let us know what you need pictures of

Anything in my gallery may be used, I would just like to know where and continue to have my name attached to it.

Perhaps on other peoples photos on the forum, you can link the photo to their TFF page...

For example:

This deer leg mount photo was taken from the personal collection of: Nicholas Slade.

Please feel free to add any of mine. I post them to share. If there are any particular specimens that you are looking for, post a want list & I'm sure someone here will be able to provide it for you. Great project! B)

I doubt you will need any of my pictures, but you are welcome to use any of them. That includes all of them in the future. Have at it.

sharktoothguy - i don't have any images in the gallery and you're welcome to use them.

Just curious, but have you had your drinking water tested lately? Any radiation leaks close by? :rolleyes:

Thanks Harry! I just wanted to be sure before I used anyone's pictures willy nilly(is that even a word :P)

Anyway, I created an Otodus obliquus page on the Wiki, and I was wondering if I can use some of your pictures of Otodus in it's page.

Thanks to everyone elses input, I will put your name(of FF name, if you wish), by the picture after it is uploaded, to show that it is owned.

Harry, these are the pics I was talking about:

Yes, you may use those images in your Wiki article on Otodus. You should acknowledge the copyright in some manner to avoid ambiguity about the rights to the images. In books I see a variety of tags to do this, such as:

image copyright Harry Pristis, reproduced with permission.

But, use your own language to get that meaning across. I'm glad to cooperate in your project.

Hmmm, well, I can't really think of anything really. Maybe you can take whatever pics you want, and upload them to the F gallery, and then when I get a chance I'll upload 'em to the Wiki. I've been working today since like 8:30 on the wiki, and I don't know how much more I can handle.

I'm telling you, looking at code for hours on end, makes you crazy. Or in my case, crazier than usual! :wacko::blink::P

What uses html, Fossil Wiki? I think that you all you can do is manually upload pictures to the upload log, and only then can you use them. Yeah, you can't just take them from one website(FF), to another(FW). You have to download, then upload.
