Talk:Anime Girl Kristin 2.0

Use of creator's promo images.

So, I've got an email from Chris Schell giving me permission to use the promo images for Kristin 2.0 that were used on Sharecg so long as he is credited with ownership of the images (as per normal copyrights requirements). How do I go about that? The sample we've here on the wiki with the Lehair image is based on a link back to the site. Can't link to email, LoL. --Glaseye (talk) 15:52, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Two ways I would do it is 1)make an image of the e-mail and attach to the file page. (Not the preferred) 2) beg Chris to become a member and have him upload the image. That is what COF did for their images. https://poserdazfreebies.miraheze.org/wiki/Category:Childe-of-Fyre--Dollygirl (talk) 18:41, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
 * IMO, the choice for a creator to upload images is the creators' choice alone, no begging by me (LoL). And while I can make a screenshot of the email, but no way I'll be showing his or mine email adress. A bit background, Chris' offer came after a feedback exchance between him and me about this set, as I mentioned making 'sample images' for the wiki. (And given his reactions, he's fully aware of this site and its founder :) ). Maybe Rob has an alternative suggestion? --Glaseye (talk) 20:45, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I think that you may have documented sufficiently the creator's point of view of whether we use his images or not by having this talk page discussion. Maybe just point to this page. If you still feel that you need an iron clad justification then I guess we wait for Rob.--Dollygirl (talk) 23:32, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh I agree the creator should have the say but not all creator's know of our respect for an artist's work and that we would not do something that would get the wiki in a bind because of unauthorized use. That being said a gentle beg (oh I mean reminder ;)) could be appropriate. We live this wiki they do not. But as you said this is my IMO and your IMO is just as good as mine. It is the goal that is important. The path one chose's can be varied as long as we get to our agreed result and respect the conditions set by the wiki. I guess I am on a rag that we have little help here. I calculated that if I do 3 images a day for the next 7 years I would finally get through the Page Needing Image list. It seems a daunting task when there are so many other things I would like to see done to make this wiki work better for the 3D community.--Dollygirl (talk) 23:32, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I would copy the permission email to its own page here, but remove the email addresses. Leave the "To:" and "From:" headers, but just leave them blank.
 * If we do go the email route (not preferred because spambots can harvest the address), code the link this way: Send an email to example . It works in FireFox. --Robkelk (talk) 12:25, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I'll figure something out once I've had my beauty-sleep (hey, past midnight here :) ,old man needs his sleep...) In the worst case (if the rights are not set properly) we may have to delete the images and try again... :) {and now with kerya out, someone needs to give that glaseye a good kick under his lazy, erm, well, you get the idea 'behind' this.....} --Glaseye (talk) 23:44, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
 * still somewhat puzzled with the copying of the email... uploaded the 1st promo image and a image of the email. Please take a look at it and give your opinion. If this is not the right way, please delete the image(s), otherwise I will add the remainig 4 to the gallery --Glaseye (talk) 17:17, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
