I decided to go ahead and scan in the postcard images, so I'd like to replace this image and the Devlin O'Ryan image with my updated scans. However, the file format changed from GIF to JPG (I couldn't optimize a PNG file small enough to still look good) and these old images are still here. Can I assume that someone bigger than me has permissions to delete the old (this) image? I'll wait to update Devlin until I get an answer. If this caused trouble, I can probably convert the scans (in TIF format) to GIF and maintain the existing file names. Autochef 16:43, 7 July 2006 (PDT)

I can delete this, sure, no problem. Stick with what you're doing - TIFFs aren't uploadable and GIFs shouldn't be used for anything that isn't flat-colour (and, anyway, you'll get an error if you try to upload a file with the "wrong" extension). - Reboot (SoM) talk page 17:03, 7 July 2006 (PDT)
