 * You should sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;.
 * Remember to conduct any editing experiments in the sandbox.
 * If you're a Wikipedian, see Wikibooks for Wikipedians for a primer on how things work here (it's a little different).
 * If you want to base your work here on materials from Wikipedia, please use WB:RFI to bring the material over in compliance with the GFDL.
 * If you're an instructor and plan on using wikibooks for a class project, see Guidelines for class projects
 * Please say hello at the Staff Lounge with any questions or ideas.
 * Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
 * Please take a look at Naming policy before starting a new book.
 * Remember to maintain a Neutral point of view.

You will find more resources in Community Portal. If you want to ask a question, visit the Study help desk, the Staff lounge, IRC channel or ask me personally on my talk page. For site news, see the Bulletin board. It might be an idea if you add this page to your "watchlist" so that you can see when any new information is posted there.

Subtle licensing issues
Hello Lirtferk. I noticed the images you uploaded to Wikibooks. Thank you very much for your contributions! I would like to iterate a few points regarding licensing issues. Just remember that every image needs to be tagged with its license and source


 * You need to Image:Trianglexemplar.png. If you created the image, you may consider using &#123;{PD-self}}, &#123;{GFDL-self}}, or a CC license. If you retrieved the image elsewhere, you should provide the source and license.
 * Free software is a bit trickier. Consider reading commons:Commons:Licensing. It provides an excellent explanation.
 * First, on Image:Blender-Noob-to-Pro Proportional Menu.png, you should use &#123;{free screenshot|GPL}}, as Blender is licensed under the GPL.
 * Second, you should mention your contributions (since the image is not a simple screenshot) and license them. You could probably do &#123;{PD-self}} since they are simple outlines. But if the screenshot contains original work by you, then you might consider licensing it under another license.

I hope this helps and my post is understandable. If not, or if you have any another questions, please feel free to ask here or at my talk page. Cheers! Iamunknown 04:21, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

ItIsUnclear
Hello Iamunknown: it is unclear how to edit the copyright for the images. I tried uploading a new (the same) image with PD-self attached but it told me that there was already an image there, hmmm... Could you elucidate?

Dear Iamunknown: I've worked it out and fixed the licensing issues. All the best Lirtferk
