Dear Skier Dude,

The language below is so opaque to me that I really don't understand what you're trying to say, or to whom it is directed--or if this is the appropriate way to reply, or if any reply is indeed necessary. Could you please clarify, or advise if such a request is or is not appropriate under Discussion?

In any case, I can assure you that this is an un-copyrighted photograph in the public domain that I submitted from my private family files.

Thanks, and very confused. Just trying to understand your message.

Thanks for uploading File:Ingri & Edgar d'Aulaire publicity photo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk) 02:46, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
