Matthew Keller's Permission For This Work

edit

I'm not going to go overboard with this, and I'm not going to re-upload Image:Merrit.jpg or Image:Crane_Banner.jpg just yet, but Matthew Keller, the creator, considers these photos of SUNY Potsdam and the Crane School of Music to be under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license without the NonCommercial tag.

Before deleting, please someone tell me how I can get these images on Wikipedia. I have been given full permission. If I am breaking Wikipedia rule though, I will comply. --Jondude11 17:43, 27 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
