Quoting Dr. Killpatient:4. Pretty much agreed but why no background?

I meant the opposite. There should be a background Glad we agree on all those points

Quoting Astrakan:

I'm asking because I'm in the process of adding birth years to all actors in my local. I know that obviously means I can't contribute cast changes,

Why does it mean that? I understood that the added function of the check boxes at the bottom of the cast list on the contribution page does exactly that, giving you the chance not to contribute BYs you have locally but are not in the online database...

Because it seems that more people don't want unvalidated BY's in their database than those that do.  I hear a lot of fussing about it and the previous maintainer of the database said that he was talking all BY's out.  I didn't take all out, but I did take out the invalid ones.

As to why I don't want him to submit his database - I have to manually search for and and edit each cast & crew that Invelos rejected the BY for and remove it.

Dr., you are right. I thought he was talking about contributing to the online database rather than the headshots database. My bad.

First of all I would like to thank everybody involved in making the HMDb.

When I updated my local Database with the HMDb-V3 I found the following wrong assigned pictures:

Name in Database - Picture of...
Lewis Abernathy - unknown
Vass Anderson - Maria Schell
Bob Burns - Billy Bob Thornton
Sam Douglas - Dustin Hoffman
Su Elliot - picture of a mail actor
Nicole Fellows - picture of a mail actor
Michael Fox - Michael J. Fox
John Frusciante - Viggo Mortensen
Mpho Koaho - Dolph Lundgren
Youki Kudoh - Ziyi Zhang?
George Lynn - Bestsy Lynn George
Robert A. Silverman - David Cronenberg
Ewan Stewart - Ewan McGregor
Carel Struycken - Christopher Lloyd
Mark Wood - Elijah Wood

If someone can confirm the wrong pictures they can be corrected or deleted for the next release.

I also identified and corrected the following today:

Kenny Baker (1912)
Jim Norton (1938)
Kevin Smith (1963)

I'm unsure about Liz Smith (1921 & 1923).
