Hi, Never been to spain! Welcome to the Commons, and thanks for your pictures!

I saw that you misspelled a file name (it's also happened to me), so I thought I'd let you know how you can easily have it deleted. And then I saw that nobody has yet welcomed you or given you some general tips and tricks! So I've pasted above what Pfctdayelise used to welcome me. There's some general advice... but most useful I've found the two following items in the right column:

wrong file names: Did you want to rename or move a file? Simply upload the file again and mark the old one like this: {{bad name|Correct name}}
upload images from Wikipedias: If you're copying files from another project, be sure to use the CommonsHelper

Well, I hope it's useful... and we'll see a lot of nice pictures from you! :o) And if you should need any help, make sure to holler or knock at my door. Enjoy the Commons, Ibn Battuta 02:06, 15 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
