Dear colleagues,
this week I've finished my job on popular book, something like "Rasskazy o Diptera = Stories on Diptera". It will include general chapters on Insects and Diptera and stories about 65 families of Diptera (excluding the smallest and too exotic groups). Of course, a lot of illustrations, about 220 images. Authors of the majority of the images have given me their permission already. It is time to ask kind permissions for other images. The authors of the images are listed below.
Other question is how you prefer to see your name indicated?
For example, we know Diptera.info member as NakaRB, but he prefers to refer him as Nikolay Vladimirov, which is quite natural, isn't it? But possibly somebody prefers (for whatever reason) to be under Diptera.info nickname. So, please, let me know that, you can reply me via Diptera.info messenger or directly at nikita6510@ya.ru
Best wishes, Nikita Vikhrev

Dear Nikita,

You have of course my permission.
I prefer using my real name (Pierre Duhem).

---

Thank you, Pierre!
Best wishes, Nikita

---

Dear colleagues,
I thank again everybody who gave permissions.
It seems to me that two points require explanations.
1. Presently most publishers do not pay fee for images. I can not blame my publisher, because 220 images will lead her to bankruptcy. Either I can not pay myself for some of images, even the most necessary ones, because it would be an unfair play to all other photographers.
2. But what I can offer to all photographer is to promise to send the book to anybody who do not mind that the text is in Russian. Just send me your post address.

---

Hi Nikita, you are welcome to use the picture of Conicera. :)

---

Thank you, Paul!

---

Hi Nikita,
you can of course use my picture of Arctophila bombiformis. Looking forward to the book. :) If you want, I can send you the original photo file, but it's only slightly better.
Best greetings
Rupert

---

Thank you, Rupert!
Your image on Diptera.info is large enough.
Best, Nikita

---

my response i probabbly to late, but in a case you have surerly mu permossion

---

Dear colleagues and friends,
my book for which I requested images here is finally published (see: http://phyton-knigi.ru/)

---

1. I thank authors of images for permissions.
2. This week I will send books to those authors who give me request and postal address (so far it is about 10 authors). Other authors are still wellcome to get the book if give me where to send.

---

Congratulations on getting your book published, Nikita. Things have changed a bit in the last 15 years! |t
And I'm sure it's no co-incidence that Diptera.info has been available all that time! So congratulations to Paul as well! :D

---

I agree with you Tony, it would not possible to find illustrations without Diptera.info!
In the book I especialy wrote that the best way for identification (as well as solving any other problem connected with Diptera) is again Diptera.info! And of course, I thank Paul in my book.

---

Congratulations, Nikita. I hope that sell many copies. You work hard. I wish the best for you and your wife. :)

---

Nikita, of course yo have my permission ever. I did not see this thread until now. I've been in others "thinks". Nor messages received from diptera too.
Contratulations !! The book would be very useful to me. Best wishes.
