Help with posting an image
[edit]Hi WikiwikiPanda, I saw your message on the Giant Panda talk page. First you need to sort out the issues from the message above. It looks to me like the photo has been taken from another website - if this is the case and the website, like most, does not clearly release its images into the public domain or under a license like cc-by-sa or the GFDL, you won't be able to add it I'm afraid.
Once you've sorted those issues out, you put the image in by typing [[image:Baby Panda Twin 1.jpg|thumb|your caption here]] on the page where you want the photo to be. The "thumb" bit is important to keep to make sure the image size defaults to the user's preference, otherwise it will be at full resolution, which is bad for most images. The caption should be a brief description relevent to the image and the article it's included in. You can also specify if you want the photo to sit on the left of the page instead of the right (which is the default).
For instance, this image is placed using [[image:Giant_Panda_2004-03-2.jpg|thumb|left|Panda photo from [[:Commons:Category:Ailuropoda_melanoleuca|Commons' ailuropoda melanoleuca category]].]]
Hope that's helpful. If you have any questions please feel free to leave me a message at the bottom of my talk page and I'll try and help or point you to the right place to ask if I can't. -- SiobhanHansa 09:14, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
- Hi again! You're right - the page is semi-protected so you won't be able to edit it until your account is (I think) 4 days old. I would add the image for you, but from the information you provided it looks like a copyright violation. The website states at the bottom Copyright ©2003 Xinhua News Agency. All rights reserved. Without the owner releasing the image under a suitable license (like GFDL or cc-by-sa) we can't include it. Sorry. It's a very cute photo. -- SiobhanHansa 11:50, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit]Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 11:04, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
