How do I find licensing for use of your photo of the colosseum? I'm a high school teacher, and I'd like to use the image for a poster for a play.

Hi, I represent the Jane Austen Society of North America, a non-profit literary society. I would like to use your beautiful photo of the Oxford Radcliffe Camera for a tour brochure and a posting on our web site, www.jasna.org. I am able to provide appropriate attribution, specifically: Radcliffe Camera, Oxford , DAVID ILIFF. License: CC BY-SA 3.0. But I read that I also need to include a reproduction of the actual license. That will not fit on our brochure or even fit in well on the web page, can you give me permission to use the photo with the attribution alone? If I could figure out how to attach a pdf of the Publisher File to this kind of communication, I would be happy to do so. Can you please send me an email to claireqb07@yahoo.com, as I do not have a Wikipedia account. Many thanks for your help!

Portsmouth Cathedral is an Anglican cathedral church in Portsmouth, England. A chapel was built on the site and dedicated to St Thomas of Canterbury in 1188, and became a parish church in the 14th century. Following substantial damage during the English Civil War, the tower and nave were reconstructed between 1683 and 1693. The building became a pro-cathedral when the Diocese of Portsmouth was split from the Diocese of Winchester in 1927. Plans to enlarge it were interrupted by World War II, and the building was finally consecrated as a cathedral in 1991. This photograph shows Portsmouth Cathedral's three- manual and pedal, 49- stop organ, installed in 1994 by Nicholson & Co Ltd. The pipes originated from the John Nicholson organ of 1861 built for Manchester Cathedral, which had been relocated to Holy Trinity Church, Bolton. Photograph credit: David Iliff

Just wanted to say I hope you're doing well in this very awful time. Been a weird year. I guess I'm doing mostly okay.

Hello David, i believe we used one of your images for a blog post back in 2015, the chap that did the blog is no longer working with us so we are not 100% sure where the image came from, but we assume it was from Wiki? The image was used in good faith with no intention of making money. The assumption was that all images on the Wiki commons files were free to use? To the point we are being taken to court by Fossick Picture for copyright infringement. The person taking us to court is a Mr Leopold Kamugyene the company Fossick is not registered in the uk so we dont know if they are fraudulent as they are registered in Estonia with an office in London. They are using your name to make the claim, if you could advise if the image does or does not have any copyright infringements on Wiki please. Sorry for this just we are a small company and we dont know if Fossick are just going around making scam claims on small vulnerable companies. My apologies if the image has copyrights, we assume the image was free to use, see our very basic blog: https://www.cnmonline.co.uk/blog/Tower_Bridge/

Notre-Dame Basilica is a Catholic basilica in the historic district of Old Montreal, in Montreal, the most populous city in Quebec, Canada. The main construction work took place between 1824 and 1829; the sanctuary was finished in 1830, the first tower in 1841, and the second in 1843. The Irish-American architect James O'Donnell designed the towers to be traditionally Gothic, and intended them to be visible from any point in the city. On its completion, the church was the largest in North America, and remained so for over fifty years. The interior of the church, shown here, is amongst the most dramatic in the world and regarded as a masterpiece of Gothic Revival architecture. The vaults are coloured deep blue and decorated with golden stars, and the rest of the sanctuary is decorated in blues, azures, reds, purples, silver, and gold. It is filled with hundreds of intricate wooden carvings and several religious statues. Photograph credit: David Iliff

St Cyprian's Church is an Anglican parish church in the Marylebone district of London, dedicated to Saint Cyprian, a third-century martyr and bishop of Carthage. The church was designed by Sir Ninian Comper in a Perpendicular Gothic style, and was constructed between 1901 and 1903. The sanctuary, seen here, has a delicate carved and painted rood screen and parclose screens around an "English altar", i.e. an altar surrounded on three sides by hangings and a painted dossal, riddelposts with angels, and a painted and gilded reredos. The altar is set beneath a gilded tester placed high up in the roof. Photograph credit: David Iliff

Bath Abbey is an Anglican parish church and Grade I listed building in the English city of Bath, Somerset. This photograph shows the interior of the church, featuring the stained glass and the altar at the eastern end of the nave. The square-framed window of seven lights includes a depiction of the Nativity and was made by Clayton and Bell in 1872. The fan vaulting on the ceiling provides structural stability by distributing the weight of the roof down ribs that transfer the force into the supporting columns via flying buttresses.

Hi David
Really love your pictures, especially those you took around Oxford
Out of interest, are you associated with a company based in Estonia called fossick OU as they are claiming to be the license sellers of your images.
I notice your images are on here under GNU so just clarifying the copywrite for a fiend
I look forward to hearing back from you
Stay safe
Best regards

St Cyprian's, Clarence Gate, is a Church of England parish church in the district of Marylebone in London. The church was consecrated in 1903, but the parish was founded in 1866. Dedicated to Cyprian, a 3rd-century martyr and Bishop of Carthage, it is near the Clarence Gate Gardens entrance to Regent's Park, off Baker Street. The present church was designed by Ninian Comper and is a Grade II* listed building. The parish was formed by the efforts of noted "slum priest" Charles Gutch, who wanted a church of his own in London. Gutch negotiated that a small portion of St Paul's parish be transferred to a new mission district where church attendance was in any case poor. The district was about one-tenth the area of the parish, but it was densely populated due to the overcrowded slums that at that time occupied much of it. This photograph depicts the nave of the church, looking towards the altar in the background. Photograph credit: David Iliff

The gatekeeper (Pyronia tithonus) is a species of butterfly in the family Nymphalidae, found across Europe. It is typically orange with two large brown spots on its wings and a brown pattern on the edge of its wings, although a large number of aberrant forms are known. The eyespots on the forewings most likely reduce bird attacks, so it is often seen resting with its wings open. Colonies vary in size depending on the available habitat, and can range from a few dozen to several thousand butterflies. This gatekeeper was photographed in Botley in Oxfordshire, England.

The gatekeeper (Pyronia tithonus) is a species of butterfly in the family Nymphalidae, found across Europe. It is typically orange with two large brown spots on its wings and a brown pattern on the edge of its wings, although a large number of aberrant forms are known. The eyespots on the forewings most likely reduce bird attacks, so it is often seen resting with its wings open. Colonies vary in size depending on the available habitat, and can range from a few dozen to several thousand butterflies. This gatekeeper was photographed in Botley in Oxfordshire, England.

Hi, is there some way to reach you that is not Facebook?
We would like to use the image in a children's almanac. If we use the given attribution close to the image and put the entire url on the image copyright information page, that should be fine, right? Thanks so much. - a book publisher

Hi
We have received a message from a company requesting that we pay a large sum of money for using your Wikimedia image of Joss bay in a post about dog friendly beaches in Broadstairs. We are a small veterinary practice in Broadstairs and were quite alarmed by the letter, as the image is available on Wikimedia which is copyright free. Can you confirm that Fossick pictures is acting on your behalf?

Dear Sir Could you tell me please Can I use this image (see link from Wikipedia: /info/en/?search=File:Sydney_Opera_House_-_Dec_2008.jpg) without attribution in social media ads like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter etc. Albertartsruni ( talk) 21:13, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
- Diliff is no longer active here, and generally does not respond to requests. Attribution is a licensing requirement for all of Diliff's photographs that you can find here, and if you re-use an image without attribution you will be in breach of the licence and will be infringing the photographer's copyright.

Hi David, I found your picture of the Sydney-Habour Bridge by Night on Wikipedia. I would like to ask a question: May we add the words "Eternity" to this picture? and publish it in our magazine ideenplus. We are a children's ministry and would like to publish children's story of Arthur Malcolm Stace - known as Mr. Eternity. Unfortunately, I did not find a usable picture with "Eternity" written on it (see this link: https://www.amusingplanet.com/2018/07/the-story-behind-sydneys-eternity.html). I would create a photomontage. May we use this image free of charge. Of course under the copyright note of her name. It would be nice if you could give us permission to print it.
With kind regards Manfred Fleischer KEB-Germany e. V. www.keb-de.org

Chichester Cathedral is an Anglican church in Chichester, West Sussex, England. It was founded as a cathedral in 1075, when the seat of the bishop was moved from Selsey. The cathedral has architecture in both the Norman and the Gothic styles, with two architectural features that are unique among England's medieval cathedrals—a free-standing medieval bell tower (or campanile) and double aisles. The cathedral contains two rare medieval sculptures and many modern art works including tapestries, stained glass and sculpture. This westward view shows the cathedral's choir, which is separated from the nave by a pulpitum with three arched openings, called the Arundel Screen. Photograph credit: David Iliff

Dear David We used an image of the Trafalgar Square Tree under a Creative Commons licence but inadvertently did not provide the correct attribution. We apologise for this oversight. However, we have now received an email from Pixy with an extremely large retroactive licensing fee for an image used on a web page which is now archived. We are a small publishing and events company doing our best to recover from the devastating impact of covid on our business. We are willing to include the correct attribution but would request some flexibility in the licence fee. Could you also confirm that Pixy is acting on your behalf and that this is not a spam or phishing email? Many thanks Character Pub ( talk) 08:57, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

Ely Cathedral is an Anglican cathedral in the city of Ely in Cambridgeshire, England. The cathedral can trace its origin to an abbey founded in Ely in 672 by St Æthelthryth (also called Etheldreda). The earliest parts of the present building date to 1083, and it was granted cathedral status in 1109. Until the Reformation the cathedral was dedicated to St Etheldreda and St Peter, at which point it was refounded as the Cathedral Church of the Holy and Undivided Trinity of Ely. It is the cathedral of the Diocese of Ely and seat of the Bishop of Ely. Ely Cathedral was built in a monumental Romanesque style, with the galilee porch, lady chapel and choir later rebuilt in an exuberant Decorated Gothic. Its central octagonal tower and the West Tower give it a prominent position above the surrounding flat landscape. This photograph shows the cathedral's lady chapel. Photograph credit: David Iliff

Dear David,
We used an image of the London_Thames_Sunset_panorama_ _Feb_2008 for a brief period on our LinkedIn page as a banner, but inadvertently did not provide the correct attribution. We apologise for this oversight. I was not aware that the image is licensed to you and as soon as we became aware, we immediately removed the image.
However, we have received an email from Pixy with an extremely large retroactive licensing fee for an image used on a web page which is now archived. We are a small advisory company who gets less than 100 visits per year on our LinkedIn page.
Could you please first confirm that Pixy is acting on your behalf and that this is not a spam or phishing email? Pixsy have been unwilling to provide any evidence that they are acting for you in spite of repeated requests. No contracts with you have been shared and that leads me to believe that Pixsy are making a fraudulent claim using your name.
The case reference that Pixsy has quoted is 002-203834.
Thanks, Snbalaji2 ( talk) 14:43, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
Dear Mr Lliff,
I have recieved a letter from a company demanding quite a substanial amount of money for using your image and not displaying your information clearly. In asking the company for more details they tend to respond with quite abrubt unhelpful information. It has meant we have removed the image from our website, which is a shame as it is a stunning image but the last thing we want to do is use an image without permission. As a small company we rely on artists like yourself who are kind enough to allow people to use their images and we are very careful to check licenses to make sure we are using them correctly and would of course correct anything if contacted.
Would you be able to confirm if the company contacting us are indeed legitimate as the correspondence does come across a lot like spam. If you do not have any notification of this case and a company acting on your behalf, I would happily open up a discussion about putting the image back on our website in a way which would be of agreement to you.
I am sorry to bother you with this and appreciate your time.
Yours sincerely Andrew Amgnholidays ( talk) 17:11, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
Good morning David,
I hope you're well. My name is Mark Brierley, I am the Head of Membership and Communications for The Royal Society of Musicians of Great Britain. We are a charity which helps musicians unable to work because of accident, illness, stress or anxiety, by providing grants for medical treatments.
We have been contacted by the company Pixsy with a copyright claim, regarding the use of your wonderful photograph of Westminster Cathedral at dusk (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Westminster_Cathedral_at_Dusk,_London,_UK_-_Diliff.jpg), which we recently used to accompany a news article about the Festival of St Cecilia.
As far as I can tell, the image is subject to a creative commons license and no fees should be due, but Pixsy are asking for an exorbitant license fee so we have removed the article from our website (www.rsmgb.org)
We are a small charity that can ill-afford this fee, so we would ask if there is anything that can be done by you to waive the fee, please? As an organisation that is here to protect people that work in the creative industries, we absolutely recognise the need for artists to be fairly compensated for their work, so if you could please clarify whether or not you expect licensing fees from this image, and that Pixsy are acting on your behalf, that would be great help.
Many Thanks,

Dear David, We used your image of St Alban’s Cathedral to advertise a small pilgrimage there last September and the image remained on our news feed. We understand that this image is free to use but we failed to display the correct attribution for which we offer our apologies. This error was pointed out by a company called Pixy who are asking for payment of a licence fee of £450. We are a small charity – a local church – and can ill afford such an unusual expense. Can you confirm that this is not a scam? Initially the company gave an address in East Finchley, London, and then they amended it to the US. Are they genuinely acting for you? Yours, Philip MaryFinchley ( talk) 20:22, 6 February 2024 (UTC)
Hello David, can you confirm whether the companies Pixsy and/or Fossick have acted on your behalf to request payment for use of your photographs? Please respond on-wiki. Thank you. Nosferattus ( talk) 19:41, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
