Hi, Anon. I was hoping we could talk about this minor issue here on your talk page.

Copyright

I see that you added a picture for GTS, which was a much-needed addition. Thank you for doing that. File:Gilles tourette2.gif

But, you mentioned that you weren't sure about the copyright on old pictures. Neither am I, which is why I hadn't yet added a picture (I was waiting for guidance from an experienced editor, as to how one determines whether old pictures are in the public domain). My concern is your source for the picture. It came from a website/webmaster who does not respect copyright, and has copyright violations on that website and throughout the internet. The particular picture that you added has an identifying stamp in one corner, so on the chance that it is copyrighted, that could be detected. I just thought you might want to check on the picture issue, and be more aware of the problems with that source, in terms of not only copyright, but also reliability and verifiable sources (he signs his webpage with "PhD" but, according to his own statements, does not hold a PhD from any valid accrediting organization in any field).

Well the only reason I got the picture from that website was I went to google and searched for images of la Tourette and those images just happened to link to that TS Disorders page. I can search google some more.
