Hallo, ich möchte mich bedanken für den Commons-Beitrag CMOS rolling shutter distortion. Der schräge Audi ist sehr eindrucksvoll, die Krönung ist das scharfe Bild im Rückspiegel. Gruß, Jochen --Iotatau (talk) 10:59, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

Hey, danke für die Blumen! Ja, das war auch kein spontaner Schnappschuss. Ich musste schon viele Autos im Fahren "blind" fotografieren (d.h. ohne auf den Monitor sehen zu können), bis ich mal das Timing für das entgegenkommende Auto im Gefühl hatte. Und auf diesem Bild passte dann endlich alles: Ruhiger weiter Hintergrund, spektakulärer Vordergrund - und der verblüffend unverzerrte Außenspiegel noch komplett mit im Bild :-) . --Axel1963 (talk) 19:38, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Axel1963!

Tip: Add categories to your files

Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.

Here's how:

1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:

2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.

[[Category:Category name]]

For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:

[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]

[[Category:Comets]]

This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".

When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").

Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.
