GRAMPS Gramps takes [[GRAMPSGramps:Copyrights|copyright law]] very seriously. Image description pages are tagged with the '''license''' and the '''source''' of the image. This makes it as easy as possible for readers, editors, and creators of derivative works to know what they can and can't do with the images in our wiki.

==Guidelines==
* For an image to be considered "free" under GRAMPS [[GRAMPS:Gramps Image use policy|Image use policy]], the license '''must''' permit both '''commercial reuse''' and '''derivative works'''.
* All copyright and licensing tags should be put on a line of their own.
* Along with a tag, specify the source or copyright holder information. Provide as much detail as possible. You can use the {{tl|information}} template.
* If an image is not licenced under a standard license, please specify what the actual license states.
* If you tag an image as requiring attribution, please specify who needs to be attributed.
* If multiple categories apply to an image, add all that apply.
* In general, fair use material, is not allowed, but such images can still be used on the English Wikipedia (see [[GRAMPSGramps:Copyrights#Fair use materials and special requirements]]). ==[[GRAMPS:Media copyright tags/All|List of media copyright tags]]==

== For image creators ==
