Oregon photos

Excellent photos. I wonder when someone is going to get rid of that huge tree that's partially blocking the view of Punch Bowl Falls? It was there in 1992 when I last visited the falls. Wahkeenah 00:44, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the comment, yes someone should move that tree branch.

Speaking of excellent shots, the photos you've taken of Chicago are really something; take it, if you will, from a native who wondered if it was possible to render something so commonsight in such a pretty light. russ. 08:53, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the comments on the Chicago pictures, I lived in Chicago for many years. I hope to go back to visit and take more photographs.

Oregon photo licensing

Kkmd, I love your photos of locations in Portland. I was wondering if you might consider releasing at least some of them under a Creative Commons license as well as the GFDL; this would make it easier for those of us who do not want to use the GFDL for our own work to make use of your excellent images. Let me know what you think. Thanks! --Makaristos 14:01, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Let me look into it, not really sure about the different licensing types. I just picked the GFDL for the photos that I upload.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Kkmd (talk • contribs)

Thanks. One of the major problems with the GFDL is its length; it's kind of hard to use because you have to reprint the entire license when you use a GFDL text or image. The CC licenses, especially the ShareAlike licenses, ensure that your rights are still protected in terms of forbidding the sale of the text or image, while allowing its reproduction under a much less restrictive license than the GFDL. --Makaristos 23:02, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In any case, it is good practice to upload images to Commons so that they may be used in other Wikimedia projects. Thanks, Cacophony 23:57, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How do I log onto Commons and what is it?

Sorry, I didn't give the best link. This one is the welcome page that provides an introduction. This serves as the central stocation for all Wikimedia projects, and enables media to be shared with different language Wikipedias as well as other projects. Cacophony 01:00, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wahkeenah Falls

What became of the stone bridge? Or is it simply hidden by the shrubs in your photo? Wahkeenah 00:29, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How do I reply to message without having to "Edit"? Not sure where the stone bridge is, took that photo a while back, I might go back to the falls and take more pictures of it.
