Ok. In that case I'd say that some image is better than none, so IMO I'd say go for it.

Hey Pine,

Personal permission from the photographer is the exception, which I have in this case. Everything else must be PD or CC0.

Hi Jeff,
The license on that one is CC-BY 2.0. Is that compatible with FB or is there a separate license that should be appended to that?

I have permission for this one (a past request) which was No. 2 in 2014. What about that?

Hi,

That would be great.

Unfortunately, none of the POTY winner files are in the public domain. I am unsure if it possible to get a permission in the next days.  A text-only announcement would be perfectly fine as well.

A example from 2013 POTY: https://twitter.com/wikicommons/status/426886367134498816

Thanks in advice and best regards,

I can share from WMF verified accounts. Posting a past year's winner with the text would get much more attention. I don't see one that is PD or CC0. Do we have - or can we get - permission from one of the photographers?
