Re: [Savannah-hackers] savannah.gnu.org: submission of cardpics

        Hi,

        It is possible and appropriate to apply the GNU GPL to images.
How to add a copyright notice to an image, I'm not sure. An image format
usually has a field to include comments, the copyright notice can be
included here ?

        Cheers,
