Hi, are you good with pictures?
[edit]Hi, I'm trying to add a picture to the Lyme disease article to illustrate that sometimes the rash looks like a bulleyes and sometimes it doesn't. Are you good with this kind of thing? Thanks. Cool Nerd (talk) 18:47, 13 February 2014 (UTC)
- @Cool Nerd: Sorry I didn't see this sooner. I'd be glad to help, but it looks like maybe you have already done it(?). NMLiz (talk) 22:39, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
- No, not yet. We need a picture, of which we might have links to several candidates on the Talk page, of a non-bulleye's rash.
- Please check out a sample photo on the talk page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Lyme_disease#seeking_non-bulleye.27s_eye_sample_pictures I want to be pretty sure about fair use and do it right and do it in a respectful way. And I need to learn the technical details of actually posting a photograph.

- @Cool Nerd:Dealing with pictures is pretty easy if you can find one the owner is willing to upload to Wikimedia. I have some Lyme connections; let me see what I can do.--NMLiz (talk) 06:34, 3 March 2014 (UTC)
