Use of a copyrighted figure for software review note

Dear all, sorry, if this is a bit off-topic, but I did not find any e-mail address more suitable on the Chimera website. As I learned from the CCL there is a new Chimera version out. I think this would be a nice opportunity to write a short software review note (approx. 1 column) in the "Nachrichten aus der Chemie", the members journal of the German Chemical Society GDCh, in order to inform a broad public of Chimera. For this I'd like to use the graphic "DNA and Netropsin" from the Chimera Image Gallery, in case there is space enough to have a figure printed as well. The image, however, is marked copyrighted, and thus I'd like to know, whether I may use it for my purpose and what statement/copyright notice should be included in the figure caption. Thanks in advance. Best regards, Anselm

I already answered Anselm in a separate message, but for the benefit of the list, our position on our copyrighted images is that people are welcome to use them as long as they are attributed to UCSF Chimera, and we request that the Chimera URL be included in an acknowledgment. Of course, we also retain copyright on the image itself, etc., etc. -- scooter Anselm.Horn@chemie.uni-erlangen.de wrote:

I would like to add that we would appreciate notice of when Chimera images are used so that we can properly track this usage and report it to our granting agency. --tom
