[edit] Image tagging for Image:Cetrdeset mucenika.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Cetrdeset mucenika.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

[edit] Nikola Pesic

I think there's something wrong with the image. When I go to Image:Cetrdeset mucenika.jpg and then click on the link "Image in higher resolution", it says, "The image “http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/3f/Cetrdeset_mucenika.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.". Do you have a program like Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop that you could open the image with? The deleted image has the same problem - neither of them show up. When I ty to view the deleted image, I get "The image “http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Undelete&target=Image%3ANikola_Pesic_Pink.jpg&file=0furb8htcwrmm37xl3fopk72h4cr9pwq.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.". I would suggest trying to open the two images with an image editing program, then re-saving them.
As for tagging the image, the particular permission that the author gave you is important. Wikipedia does not accept images where the permission given is "to upload it to Wikipedia". The author needs to explicitly release the image under the GFDL, or another compatible license. If you contact this individual and he/she is willing to release the image inder that license, then here is what you should put on the image description page:
This photo is a picture of ______________.  It was taken by ____________.  He (or she) agreed to release it under the GFDL in personal correspondance.

==Licensing==

I hope that helps. --BigDT 12:11, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
The language, "he allowed me to upload it on Wikipedia" is probably not good. It would be better to (1) confirm with him that he intends for it to be released under the GFDL then (2) say "he agreed to release it under the GFDL in personal correspondance". --BigDT 12:14, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
The image looks fine now. As for placing comments in both places, I like to keep conversations readable, rather than spread out over different talk pages. That way, if the conversation needs to be referenced sometime in the future, it isn't a struggle to read it. By adding my comment on my talk page, there's an unbroken chain of our conversation. --BigDT 12:42, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
