I'm glad to see the image is cc-by-sa-2.5 and not nc/nd. --Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 13:55, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Since I found licenses I am happy with, somewhat, I will live :) DragonFire1024 04:48, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hope you like what I did with the image... A little Photoshopping.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 18:57, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No problem :) Actually you can see more detail. Thanks :) DragonFire1024 23:51, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm I´m quite critical of using a edited image like that... I respect the work you´ve put into it, but I´d ask you to put back the original image. Enlarging a part of the photo is OK in my opinion, but cutting away the background for better contrast ? Its no problem in this case of course, but the question is where do you draw the line ? Our wish is, after all to show reality as best possible. (If I remember correctly most bigger news outlets also have quite strict regulations on using pictures, regarding retouching them, perhaps this should be brought up in Wikinews:Water cooler/policy ) ?
Yes let's bring it up there, I'll start a thread.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 08:43, 28 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

USA[edit]

I've removed USA from the title, as it's rather universally well-known where the state is, at least in the English speaking world. -- Zanimum 13:58, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
