Use the form below to upload new files, to view or search previously uploaded images go to the list of uploaded files, uploads and deletions are also logged in the project log.

To include a file in a page, use a link in one of the following forms:

  • [[File:File.jpg]] to use the full version of the file
  • [[File:File.png|200px|thumb|left|alt text]] to use a 200 pixel wide rendition in a box in the left margin with 'alt text' as description
  • [[Media:File.ogg]] for directly linking to the file without displaying the file

Photos may be uploaded under either of two conditions:

  1. You are the original photographer or copyright holder, and grant permission for SpottersWiki to display your photo under one of the following licenses:
    1. Copyrighted, Used with Permission - Permission is granted for SpottersWiki to display the copyrighted image, but no further redistribution is allowed.
    2. Copyrighted, Redistribution Permitted - Permission is granted for SpottersWiki to display the copyrighted image, and redistribution is allowed under one of the following:
      1. Creative Commons Attribution Non-commercial No Derivatives 2.5
      2. Creative Commons Attribution Non-commercial Share Alike 2.5
      3. Creative Commons Attribution Non-commercial 2.5
      4. Creative Commons Attribution No Derivatives 2.5
      5. Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike 2.5
      6. Creative Commons Attribution 2.5
      7. GNU Free Documentation License
  2. The image has been placed in the public domain, or was obtained from a source that permitted redistribution.
    1. Please include a reference to the web site from where the image was obtained.
    2. If the image is in the public domain, select the Public Domain option.
    3. If the image was from a source that permitted redistribution, use the appropriate option from the list in section 1.

Select the license you wish to use from the popup list below, and an appropriate notice will be automatically included on the image's description page. If none is included, the image will be assumed to be available under the Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial Share Alike 2.5 license, as the text on SpottersWiki is.

If the image is from a source with a license other than those listed above, or you wish to publish your image under a different license, contact David Mueller before uploading your image.
