Copyright
"The background of this image is released under the GFDL, while the Guild Wars logo is not" Pretty much means that GFDL can't be applied. Even though the background isn't copyrighted. Its just to avoid confusion. Dominator Matrix  18:18, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The background was created by JoePlay from wikia, he released the background under the GFDL; the Guild Wars logo is from the fansite kit. I can not say that the background was from the fansite kit when it wasn't.  That causes more confusion and could lead to the background being used by fansites under Creative Commons, in which the image would be a copyvio.  Please stop reverting the tags Dom, they are fine and cause less confusion than just one tag (that is why I added the note in the summary).  The GFDL appiles to the background not the entire image; the background is not owned by ArenaNet that is why I placed both tags and a note explaining.  Please revert your actions, as if I do, I will be breaking GWW:1RR -- Shadowphoenix   [[Image:User Shadowphoenix Necromancer.png|19x19px|Please, talk to me; I'm so lonley ;-;]] 19:14, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Dom is right. If parts of the image are not GFDL, you cannot release the whole image under GFDL. poke | talk 19:16, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I just said that only the back ground is released under GFDL, not the whole thing. That is why I placed 2 tags.  I am making a template in my userspace atm that will explain teh copyright status of this image.  Maybe that will clear the problem up -- Shadowphoenix   [[Image:User Shadowphoenix Necromancer.png|19x19px|Please, talk to me; I'm so lonley ;-;]] 19:19, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Don't even think about creating a new license template for that case; you simply cannot license parts of an image into different licenses, so here the stricter license applies. poke | talk 19:22, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * But ArenaNet does not own the entire image, they only own the logo... the rest is all GFDL licensed. I can't make a template that says that the logo is owned by ArenaNet while the background is released under GFDL?  -- Shadowphoenix   [[Image:User Shadowphoenix Necromancer.png|19x19px|Please, talk to me; I'm so lonley ;-;]] 19:26, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The image itself is a derivative work of the ArenaNet logo, since it contains ArenaNet works. Thus, it applies under the licensing agreement for the ArenaNet image, which states something along the lines of "or any derivative works..."
