Copyright Policy

This is the third time the image "Seordfam1.jpg" has been uploaded in violation of Elanthipedia's copyright policy. As noted in our policy (and on the talk pages of other users who have uploaded this image):

Manipulating or modifying an image that someone else created does not make it solely your own for the purpose of Elanthipedia's copyright policy. You must still get permission from the original content creator, and the file page must link to the original source.

This particular image is all over the Web and is described as Hogwarts Castle (from the Harry Potter franchise). Adding a hand, the text "Seord Family," and a fake copyright notice does not make the image solely your own for the purpose of Elanthipedia's copyright policy.

Pursuant to our previous warnings that additional uploads of this image would result in a loss of editing privileges for all accounts involved, your editing privileges have been suspended for one week. Additional uploads by any user will result in an extended loss of editing privileges and the locking of the page on which this image is posted. --ISHARON (talk) 21:23, 9 August 2016 (CDT)

Portrait of Sarkranis by the player of Ausmodius

Commissioned by Sarkranis; used with permission.

The artist is Reashell Mills. (Myself) I created the image on 5/30/2016. I used Poser 10, and Photoshop. I own the copyrights.

Thanks. When you have a moment, if you could post that attribution on the file page, that would be great. --ISHARON (talk) 21:07, 1 June 2016 (CDT)

Thanks ISHARON, unfortunately I have no clue what you're asking. I went to the original file I created and set up details and including the copyright info into the summary. If that isn't what you mean for me to do, could you please explain it step by step. I'm new to the wiki. Thanks-Reashell

Yep -- that's all we needed. (The form notice we use looks the same whether we are just trying to nudge for an attribution or questioning the validity of the image.) --ISHARON (talk) 22:46, 1 June 2016 (CDT)

Ok, thanks so much! I'll remember to do that in the future when I create more images.
