Enabling the use of images on Commons is just a small configuration away. I am sure and know that there are competent people who can help you with that.
Enabling Commons images for a MediaWiki installation is very simple. I thought many in the list know about this. Malayalam wikimedians have implemented this feature in their community website (http://mlwiki.in/wiki/) sometime back.
To enable commons in our private wiki, just add the below code in the * LocalSettings.php* file
*$wgUseInstantCommons = true; *
This feature is called *InstantCommons*, and many of us are using it. See more details at

Thank you, Sue. Once the technical issue of file upload (pointed out by Tinu) is resolved by moving to Wikimedia servers, we'll certainly add mugshots of the EC members.

Hi Sundar,
Thanks so much for sending that list, and thanks to ArunRam for creating it -- I found it really useful. I don't spend a lot of time on this mailing list, or on the Indian chapter wiki, and it helped me feel caught up :-)
Here's a small suggestion, which you should ignore if you like. Personally, I'd love if the chapter would post photos of its Executive Committee members on the site here: http://wikimedia.in/wiki/Executive_Committee_Members. I think I've probably met half of the Executive Committee members over the years, but it'd be easier for me to mentally keep faces attached to names if there were images on the wiki.
Feel free to ignore that, if it'd be a hassle.
Thanks, Sue
