To me it seems that images should only be attributed to one person at a time. This was made clear when [[:Image:joeyday2004.png|Joey's image]] was temporarily attributed to more than one person. I don't see how that could be anyone's image but his, and anyone else who puts it on a page is merely ''using'' it. By the same token, several users can get together and loan each other images. (If this becomes a problem then we can figure out what to do then, but it isn't like users aren't already putting gobs of pictures on their pages; they're just using ones that are already in use.) — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 23:46, 26 December 2005 (UTC) | To me it seems that images should only be attributed to one person at a time.

Multiple users using an image
To me it seems that images should only be attributed to one person at a time. This was made clear when Joey's image was temporarily attributed to more than one person. I don't see how that could be anyone's image but his, and anyone else who puts it on a page is merely using it. By the same token, several users can get together and loan each other images. (If this becomes a problem then we can figure out what to do then, but it isn't like users aren't already putting gobs of pictures on their pages; they're just using ones that are already in use.) — It's dot com 23:46, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Should we make a category for images that are so general it's likely a lot of users might want to use them? These would be considered owned by the wiki and thus wouldn't count against anyone's total number of images. I'm talking specifically about things like H*R Wiki logos and whatnot. It would be simple enough for someone to say on an image's talk page: "I think the wiki should claim this one," and if there's a consensus, then it gets put in a different category.
