My English Wikipedia home page is en:User:Jmabel. I check my user page on both the English Wikipedia and Commons relatively often; you can also Special:EmailUser/Jmabel email me with the "email this user" feature (which does require that you open an account and provide your own email address to Wikimedia Foundation; you don't have to enable the "Email this user" feature for your own account). I am an administrator on Commons (and have been since 25 November 2009). However, I try not to spend a lot of my time here on administrative tasks. Current count of my "top uploads" (distinct files, not overwritten) on Commons: 45050. That's a lot of photos. As of January 2016, about 10% of them are in use in Wikipedia. Here are some links to representative examples: |

Licensing[edit]
Please note: My photos here are licensed under GFDL and CC-BY-SA 3.0. Some (mostly photos of people) are also licensed under CC-BY-2.5. For other non-commercial uses, I'll almost always be willing to let you use my photos if I get an appropriate photo credit, but please contact me and ask.
If your use is commercial and does not conform to GFDL, CC-BY-SA 3.0 (or other license I have explicitly granted), please do contact me, and I'm sure we can reach a reasonable licensing agreement suitable to your needs.
Among the places my photographs have appeared are the book National Geographic Traveler Romania, Clipper Vacations Magazine, Architectural Glass Concepts (AGC magazine), Haaretz, Salon.com, the film Seeding Change: Participant Persectives (2008), directed by Joyce Anastasia, and as the front cover of a University of Washington course catalog. Apparently, one of my photos appeared in a 2011 French book on fire boats of the world, which I've never seen. And I quite like this music video, which sets its mood with my photo of Wesleyan University's Russell House at night.

A large rectangular section of my panoramic view of the Thea Foss Waterway in 2010 is featured in several City of Tacoma publications to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the clean up of the waterway. Their derivative, colormapped bluer, was used both on a 4" x 6" piece (split onto the two sides) advertising the 24th annual Tacoma Maritime Fest July 17, 2016 and as the center spread in the Spring/Summer 2016 edition of Envirotalk, published by City of Tacoma Environmental Services.

This picture of El Vez (Robert Lopez) that I took in 2009 was used by Redhook Ale Brewery in their spring/summer 2016 ad campaign. This an example of one that involves separate licensing: their ad agency Duncan Channon purchased specific rights from me independent of the "free license" — which nonetheless remains fully available for other uses — and they also compensated El Vez appropriately for personality rights.
-
An illustration deriving from this photo of the Eclectic Society building at Wesleyan University (which is to become the Music House in 2016), was supposed appear some time in spring or summer 2016 in The New Yorker. The New Yorker licensed this specially from me, because they needed a license that did not include the sharealike provision. I never saw where (or if) it got used.

Another photo of Wesleyan University, this time used in a young adult book, Beyond Words: Lin-Manuel Miranda, Stephanie Kraus, published by Teacher-Created Materials.

Useful tool for monitor calibration[edit]
I find this very useful & recommend it highly. Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates#Is my monitor calibrated correctly?
Note on uploading video from Flickr[edit]
Uploading video from Flickr is much trickier than uploading still photos. Basically, this is the best I've been able to work out. Credit to User:Sanandros for hints.
- Use Firefox extension DownloadHelper to download from Flickr to your own system.
- Use Firefox extension FireFogg to convert this to Theora-Ogg Vorbis (.ogv) format.
- Upload that in the normal manner. Make sure you indicate the source on Flickr.
- Tag the image with {{flickrreview}}. If you are an admin or have review privileges, you can fill out that template.
