This statement only refers to images where I, personally, am the sole author. I frequently upload images from flickr, from the English Wikipedia, or from government websites - it does not apply to those images - I have no authority to modify the licensing terms of somebody else's work.

All images that I upload to Wikimedia Commons where I, personally, am the sole author are licensed under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License. This license, in my judgment, is the best license for promoting free content. Licenses that allow someone who did not author the work to add restrictions to their derivative works only hinder the growth of free media.

In addition to licensing my images under the GFDL, I grant permission to use them non-commercially provided that you do not claim to be the author and that you provide a link back to the image description page on Commons or English Wikipedia. Please read the Wikipedia disclaimer and Commons disclaimer before using this or any other image.

As a courtesy, I would appreciate a letter of thanks on my Commons talk page if you use an image I create outside of Wikimedia projects - it's nice to know that someone found something you did useful.

If this image depicts a person or sporting event, then your use of this image may be restricted due to trademark, personality rights, or other rights of the league or teams involved independent of my rights as the photographer. You alone are responsible for ensuring that your usage does not infringe on the rights of any third party.
