The Bostonians nearly threw my tea in the harbor about the new upload
form. :-) When do we expect it to go live?

All the more reason for us to get the new upload form up and running, so
that people have to say what the source for an image is up front,
instead of us chasing them down after the fact to find out where they
got it. What are we waiting for at this point?

Dear Sir,
We notice you have a number of images on your website (e.g.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakespeare;
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_of_Denmark>
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_of_Denmark ) which are of portraits in
the collection of the National Portrait Gallery, London.<?xml:namespace
prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
As we do not appear to have licensed copies of these portraits for use on
your website, we wondered whether you would let us know the source from
which you obtained the reproductions.
All photographs, scans, text and other material on the National Portrait
Gallery's website are protected by international copyright laws.

I look forward to hearing from you regarding this matter.
Yours sincerely,
