Images to check

Copyright

Pictures have to be original. We can verify that an image is not already used in a website. If you use Google chrome, you can do a right click on the image and Search Google for image.

Tips:

• a picture with a small resolution is often "stolen" from a website.
• a picture with Exif informations about the camera/smartphone (metadata) is often ok.

Watermark

Only images without watermark can be awarded in the contest. So, watermarked pictures have to be categorized in Category:Images with watermarks.
