I don't mean to be a killjoy, but taking the example of the image by David Monniaux, for instance, and licence compliance nonwistanding, doesn't
"courtesy of Wikimedia Commons"
make us a more efficient publicity than
"GFDL" ?

there might be some food for though in the fact that we are requesting a lower profile, in practice. Should we encourage people to
* Put proper EXIFs
* double-licence their images under a Free CC licence
* put an example of proper credits including a mention of Commons (like "©Rama / Wikimedia Commons, Cc-by-sa) below all images ?
