Permission Needed to Use Images

From Math and Art

Dear contributor to the Math & Art Wiki,

Our goal is to create a community website whose materials may be freely distributed and is available at no charge, collaboratively edited by volunteers. Like Wikipedia we ask permission for material to be used under the terms of the “GNU Free Documentation License.” This means that although you retain the copyright and authorship of your own work, you are granting permission for all others to use, copy, and freely share the materials you submit—and even potentially use them commercially—so long as they do not try to claim the copyright themselves, nor prevent others from using or copying them freely.

You can read this license in full at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_the_GFDL This license expressly protects creators from being considered responsible for modifications made by others, while ensuring that creators are credited for their work.

We believe that GFDL is the best available tool for ensuring our material can remain free for all to use, while providing credit to everyone who donates text and images. This may or may not be compatible with your goals in creating the materials.

When you submit an image you are credited for your work in the image's permanent description page, noting that it is your work and is used with your permission.

One way to give your permission to use images and other materials is to send in this statement as you post them on the site:

I own the copyright to the image found at http://www.<URL OF SOURCE> [OR JUST SENT IN??]

I grant permission to copy, distribute and/or modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts.

Thank you for your contribution, The Math Forum @ Drexel
