# Portrait sources and licenses

These nine local portraits are adaptations of the exact Wikimedia Commons files listed below. All inputs were downloaded at their original resolution; no Wikimedia thumbnail was used. Source dimensions were checked against the downloaded, decoded files, and source previews and all final portraits were inspected.

The photographs and their adaptations remain under their respective source terms, not the project code license. The CC BY-SA adaptations are distributed under CC BY-SA 4.0; the CC BY adaptations, including Sanfilippo's CC BY 3.0 video still, retain their listed CC BY licenses. Karpathy's source is under CC0 1.0. No additional permission, endorsement, model release, trademark rights or personality rights is asserted. In particular, Commons flags personality rights for Simon Willison's photograph.

The linked Commons page revisions document the supplied licensing metadata. They are description-page revisions, not image-binary version identifiers. The original-input and local-output SHA-256 values below identify the actual bytes used. Author names, work titles, license versions and required HashiCorp credit are retained here. For the CC0 portrait, source and author are retained for provenance; visible UI attribution is not required.

Crop coordinates are integer source pixels in Pillow order `[left, top, right, bottom]`, with a top-left origin and exclusive right/bottom edges. Apply EXIF orientation before cropping; these inputs have orientation 1 or none, so coordinates also match the decoded input pixel grids. Every crop is square, resized to 384 × 384 with Lanczos, converted to RGB and encoded as lossy WebP at quality 82, method 6. Embedded EXIF, XMP and ICC metadata is not copied. No retouching, compositing, generated fill or color adjustment was applied.

Encoder used: Pillow 13.0.0, libwebp 1.6.0. The operation for each source is:

```python
image = ImageOps.exif_transpose(Image.open(source)).convert("RGB")
image.crop(crop).resize((384, 384), Image.Resampling.LANCZOS).save(
    output, "WEBP", quality=82, method=6
)
```

For UI credit, use the author/credit and license below, link the license and source, and indicate "cropped, resized, WebP". Full work titles and prior-crop history remain in this public record.

All eight existing portraits and decoded sources were visually reviewed, including circular previews at 64 and 192 pixels. Karpathy and Torvalds were cropped more tightly to reduce excess torso and match the other head-and-shoulders portraits. Martin was recropped from the linked uncropped original to recover hair and center the tilted face. The other five crops were retained without re-encoding because their framing already works in a circle.

- Original image URL: <https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7c/Andrej_karpathy_2016.webp>.
- Metadata note: the work title says "2016", while Commons lists creation as 2026-02-01. This discrepancy is retained, not resolved here. No explicit license dispute was found in the supplied metadata; the source and CC0 dedication are recorded as listed, not independently guaranteed.
- Decoded source dimensions: 1100 × 616 pixels.
- Source SHA-256: `3020a0f82b7f451a6a62bc7712890dccb04c8c7f1f30000849a8b82bfd1cf996`.

- Crop decision and prior history: Tightened from `[270, 0, 770, 500]` to enlarge the head and reduce excess torso. Hair and chin remain visible in the circle. The source has very little space above the hair, so additional headroom is unavailable without adding pixels.
- Suggested visible credit: none required by CC0; keep this public provenance record.

That 769 × 1025 input had SHA-256 `1f6d8d783fa63efea91ab79874fe810106fa32525b0e8db65fe825fe08922029`; its crop from the original was not specified in the supplied metadata.

- Crop decision and prior history: Replace the prior `[0, 145, 769, 914]` crop of the already-cropped source with a crop of the uncropped original linked above. The wider source allows full hair, chin and upper shoulders to fit inside the circular preview, with the tilted face centered and less magnification.
