Subject: RE: Requesting permission to use a portrait from your website
Dear Sir or Madam:
I am a retired chemical engineer and would like permission to use a portrait of John Napier from your website in an article about logarithms in the online Citizendium encyclopedia. A copy of the portrait is attached and it was obtained from your website page at http://www.thocp.net/biographies/napier_john.html
Citizendium is a non-profit, free online encyclopedia. Volunteer editors, including university professors and other experts, review all articles before they receive final approval. Volunteer authors, like myself, must be vetted and approved before they can contribute any articles and all authors must use their real names. You may visit the Citizendium at http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Main_Page to learn more. You may also view the "Logarithm" article in the Citizendium at http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Logarithm
If you would grant us the permission to use the portrait as a public educational service, we would be most grateful. We would prefer the portrait be released under a Creative Commons (CC) license ( see http://creativecommons.org/license/ ), but will gladly accept the terms with which you are most comfortable.
Your portrait will be viewable worldwide and will be conspicuously labeled "CC:The History of Computing Project". If at any time in the future you request the portrait's removal, such request will be honored.
Assuming that permission is granted, I will need to receive an email stating that permission is granted and signed by by the appropriate person in your organization.
Thanking you for your consideration, I am
