Thank you. That was a nice welcome greeting. I mostly put interwiki on the English wikipedia, when I find missing interwikis to Norwegian articles. I will soon put a little more info on my user page. --Harald Haugland (talk) 21:54, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Abraham Gesner Photo

I found the photograph of Abraham Gesner (Abraham Gesner Photo.gif) that you uploaded and wanted to use it in an article. However someone pointed out there is no source information on the photo so there is no way to verify it.

Do you have the source info? Can you upload it to the image page?

Thanks.
