Stephen Pisani's picture
In terms of using Pisani's picture that you uploaded, merely stamping a "fairuse" picture on it is not sufficient, unfortunately. For pictures of people like that one, that appears to be a promotional photograph, we actually need to have the permission of the copyright holder to actually use that. Just to inform you, -- Sulfur 01:48, 30 July 2007 (UTC)


 * More importantly, as this may be a variable Sulfur isn't considering, are you Stephen Pisani? --Alan 01:57, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Will the real Stephen Pisani please stand up?
Thank you for the info about the fair use/copyrights... I have updated the picture page with the info, as Alan is correct, I am Stephen Pisani and this is my own picture.
 * Well, let me re-welcome you. It's always nice to see people involved in the production stopping by the site and getting involved.  And thanks for expanding the copyright notice on the picture.  It's mostly a CYA measure (as I'm sure that you can understand, seeing that we fall into a nice gray area with respect to the entire franchise...) so it means that a bit of pedantry is required at times (unfortunately).  Again, welcome, and hope that you find it interesting enough to drop by now and then. -- Sulfur 02:10, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
