{{

}} Please help me upload a photo or otherwise add a photo. I am not authorized. My article needs a photo.
in order to upload a photo. That means your account has to be at least 4 days old and you have to have made 10 edits. It appears that right now your account is older than 4 days, but you only have 8 edits. After you make 2 more edits, you'll be able to upload a photo. I don't know if the photo you linked is usable, however, because the copyright status of it is unclear. Do you own that picture?
Also, you might wanna take a look at
WP:LAYOUT. It needs a bit of formatting (articles typically don't have words with all caps unless it is an acronym) and clean up. Killiondude (talk) 18:56, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply

You can also create an account at Wikimedia Commons and upload the image there if it is not copyrighted. Once it is in Commons, you can use the image in any Wikipedia article. Another alternative is to request someone else upload the image at
Wikipedia:Images for upload. Please let me know if there are any more questions. Thanks! --Mysdaaotalk 19:03, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply

Yes, I took the photo of my own rabbit. How do I make it clear that it's mine?
You need to upload the photo. Go to Commons:Upload, and follow the instructions there. Note the filename.
Then you can add it to your article by putting [[file:filename.jpg|thumb]].
If you have any problems doing this, let me know by using another helpme, and we can do it for you. You could also talk to us live.

(e/c) Hi Gyldwiz. I'm not quite sure if you are asking about tagging the image as you own so that you retain its copyright, or if you're asking how you show it's your own for purposes of releasing it into the public domain or under another free license. If the former, we can't use it. All our content must be licensed under a free license, or be proper fair use, which this would not be. If the latter, go to the Wikimedia Commons (not here), (sign up up for an accoumt, which should take seconds), go to the link in the side menu for "upload file" on the left hand side of the page under "participate", on the page you reach, click on the link for "It is entirely my own work", follow the instructions at the upload form you reach. You probably want to choose "public domain" in the licensing menu. Once you have uploaded the image there you can immediately use it here. Cheers.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:10, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
