Say RP, I wanted to upload this pic here http://www2.netdoor.com/~campbab/kong/kkfrank.jpg for an article. The pic was published in the Steve Archer book Willis O'Brien Special Effects Genius. The sketches were supplied by Darlyne O'Brien (Willis O'Brien's widow) who has long since passed away. In the book the pic contains no copyright. Is it possible that it can be uploaded?Giantdevilfish (talk) 01:43, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
Good day,
Thank you for your prompt answer. I've arranged with our photograph, Alexandru Olanescu, to write an e-mail of confirmation for the photo we like to appear at ASTRA National Museum Complex's page. Tomorrow morning he'll write it. I hope everything will be fine,

Make sure Alexandru Olanescu confirms his choice of copyright license, one that is acceptable on Commons. —RP88 (talk) 13:33, 20 October 2011 (UTC)Thank you for your kind response <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Media_copyright_questions#What_do_you_need_me_to_do.3F> and offer to help with sorting out the copyright issues for the article Thorne Webb Dreyer.
I emailed Cindy, the copyright holder and received the following approval by return email. I used your email link to send this message but am copying it here. There are several more images which I would like to use and have received the releases for but I thought, because I am not yet familiar with the Wikipedia protocol, I would start with this as a model. Will this work?

Dear Sir,
I've finally managed to solve the problem we had with our photo. Mr. Olanescu, our photographer, has just sent an e-mail with his agreement on permissions-commons@wikimedia.org for the File:ASTRA National Museum Complex, main entrance of the Open air museum, Sibiu.jpg under the link: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:ASTRA_National_Museum_Complex_,_main_entrance_of_the_Open_air_museum,_Sibiu.jpg
I hope everything is well.
Have a good week,

tag in that image's licensing description, indicating that permission would be forthcoming. Assuming Alexandru Olanescu's e-mail referenced the URL of that image and confirmed that he agreed with the license that you attached to that image (i.e. the Free Art License), everything should be OK. I've taken the liberty of editing the ASTRA National Museum Complex page to show the main entrance of ASTRA open air museum as the primary thumbnail and moved the photo of the ASTRA palace to the history section. I also slightly edited the description of commons:File:ASTRA_National_Museum_Complex_,_main_entrance_of_the_Open_air_museum,_Sibiu.jpg on Commons. —RP88 (talk) 09:02, 26 October 2011 (UTC)...for your help with the photo of ASTRA Museum (as we can find it under http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASTRA_National_Museum_Complex) I promise that I'll be back...I'm not really joking right now. :) I'll try to improve and complete the official page of ASTRA National Museum Complex for all our museums. But this takes a little time.
Until than, have a pleasant & fulfilled week. Greetings from Sibiu,
