Hi Søren you can use the pics for Wikipedia. But you have to put the name of the photographer <http://dict.leo.org/ende?lp=ende&p=5qvU.&search=photographer>, the name of the Magazine "Bright Eyes Germany" with a link to www.bright-eyes.de and the name of the festival "Wacken Open Air" with link to www.wacken.com to each photo. If you do so, you are allowed the use them for Wikepedia. So, I wish you success for the articles. greetz Carsten www.bright-eyes.de info@bright-eyes.de schrieb: An die Bright Eyes Redaktion, ich habe folgenden Kommentar: Name: Søren F.

Hi XXXX,

You can use the pics "only" for Wikipedia!

no

no, the company is closed, the rights got back to the photographers.

You mean Frank Dünnhaupt- you can contact him under this adress:
