Hey everyone,
The Sixth Extinction Website (this forum is a part of that website) is currently being updated and made more attractive to visit. The website has an educational, non-commercial purpose and is made to provide information on recently extinct animals and plants and to make people aware of this current extinction wave. We make no profit, in fact it costs us only money.
We are adding many more photos on the pages, and with this we need help!
Of course we can only use photos and images, that are made by myself, free of copyright, in the public domain, or with permission of the copyright holder. Photos and images that are used on the website without permission will be removed as soon as possible.
We can use your help now! Do you own a photo of a extinct specimen, a drawing of you we may use? Or any other image that might be useful for us and that you own or have made?
If so it would be very helpful if you would send those photos to me. My email address can be found in my profile, and the left side of this post below my name.
Please state any requests for the use of the photo. We will add of course your name with it, and we can also add extra information, links, and even banners.
I hope you will be able and are willing to help!
Kind regard, Peter

Great text, Peter. But you should make a cross posting in several other forums.
Good luck
Melanie

Thanks, suggestions?
I've send also an e-mail to the following discussion groups: Extinct Animals Extinct Birds Vanishing Plants
And I've contacted Reinhold Rau for the use of photos on the Quagga Breeding Project.

I already have permission myself to use any context text or images from the project pages.

Hi Peter !
If this is a help for You, You can use all my pictures (those that You like).
I can send You scanned larger versions with as much pixels as possible, than their quality is much better and You can cut them like You want.

I can use my pictures too, only adding my name, etc. I could too make new pcitures for the pictureless animals, like the reunion-flightless-ibis. Also, if you want, I can make researchs on extinct species and send to you add as species informations on Extinction WebSite.

Noisi and Rafael that is very kind of you both! Thank you very much! ;D And yes, I'm always interested in pictures of extinct animals that have no one yet, like for the reunion-flightless-ibis. Every help is needed, so also information on the species itself. Thank you both very much for your permission to use your pictures. Of course I will add your name and website URL with it. If more is needed, just tell me. ;D Thanks, Peter

One tip by the way for everyone that needs pictures for their website! You can visit commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page! Here you can find many pictures that are in the Public domain, GFDL, or Creative Commons licenses. Many of them thus free of copyright!

I have photos from musuems of cape-lions, Carolina-parrots, passenger pigeons, a great Auk, a Steller´s sea-cow-skull (copy), a dodo skeleton, a thylacine, a thylacine skull, drawings of megaladapis, Dodo (reonstruction of the Oxford head), Paleopropithecus, and dozens of photos of rare and (not recently) extinct animals from zoos and museums. There are several of this pictures in the album of Kryptozoologie-Online.

Thanks Sordes, I could use photos of specimens very much! Are you Cronos on that forum? Are they all from the Rosensteinmuseum?

This has nothing to do with the extinction of animals, this is a case of cryptozoology. Furthermore you will have a copyright-problem, and the "Cadborosaurus"-carcass is very probable only the nearly completely rotten or digested (if you mean the thing which was found in a whale-stomach) remains of a shark. peter: Yes, I´m Cronos in this Forum. Except the Auerochs-skull and the passenger-pigeon-pair which are from the Löwentor-Museum in Stuttgart, all are from the Roesenstein-Museum. I have also very much photos of rare-or nearly extinct animals, especially from this Museum, like the Tuatara, the Aye-Aye or the Kakapo.

@ Sordes: Is the skull of the Steller's Sea Cow in the Rosensteinmuseum a reconstruction? Or is it a real skull?
@ Extinctionier: I can only use images that are from yourself or that are free of copyright.

The skull is only a replica of a real skull.
