Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start, and see Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, our help system and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any user or the editors for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! --Larry Sanger 15:28, 23 February 2007 (CST)

Hi Sharon, welcome again--regarding Image:Oldest carbon life.jpg, is that something that you have the copyright to? If so, can you please include the copyright info & permission/license so we can be sure we can use it? --Larry Sanger 17:11, 23 February 2007 (CST)
Hi. Yes, I have the legal right to use and redistribute this particular image. Foremost would be the fair use in copyright law, but second, an image like this one was modified / colorized through an image editing program so it's different than the one I based the image on. Due to modifications, though "similar" to the original, it's my own image. Technically, I can't use it for commercial purposes of my own. That would be unethical, but it can be used for educational purposes, legally, and of course all respective credits intact. --Sharon Mooney 18:47, 23 February 2007 (EST)
