How can I contribute to Star Galaxy
Star Galaxy depends on the generosity of its visitors. There are a couple
of ways you can contribute to Star Galaxy.
1. if you have content that is not already on our site, please contribute it!
2. we permit a very very limited amount of advertising on our site.
Generally only Amazon.com and in very unobtrusive areas of the site. If you
plan to purchase products please do so through the links on the site. This
allows Star Galaxy to earn a small commission that helps to defray our
significant costs.
3. If you have time and wish to volunteer to help us with site maintenance
please let us know via the contact us form. back to top
Why do you not answer my email?
Star Galaxy is run by a group of dedicated volunteers who do their best to
keep up with additions to the site and respond to emails. Generally we try to
reply to each message but it may take us awhile to get through them all. back to top
Do you have any other pictures from a movie or a star than what is in the galleries?
No, all of the images we have are available on the site. back to top
Do you have anything else on a movie or a star other then the images?
The aim of Star Galaxy is to archive images and make this content freely
available to the Internet at large. We do not collect other types of content.
For additional information on a movie or star we recommend checking the
Internet Movie Database at http://www.imdb.com. Many of the gallery pages
contain direct links to the relevant IMDB pages for the convenience of our
visitors. back to top
What is the benefit of registering with the site and are there any fees or costs?
Star Galaxy does not charge for any of the content on this site. The
benefits of registering are the ability to make contributions to the site by
either uploading new content or providing updates & corrections to the
content. Registration also allows the site to keep track of new content and
show you what has been added since your previous visits. You will also have
access to the new uploads area. back to top
Where can I get a copy of a movie or TV show?
We do not have copies of movies or TV shows available. Your best bet would
be a local video dealer, online retailer such as amazon.com, or netflix. back to top
Who has the copyright to the images on Star Galaxy?
In principle the copyright remains with the owner of the original image. If
you hold copyright to an image on our site and wish it removed; please contact
us via the feedback form. We will need sufficient indication that you are the
holder of the copyright and we will need a list of the images you wish removed
(please indicate the SG_xxx number below each).
Before requesting removal of your content please consider allowing it to
remain on the site. Star Galaxy provides its services free of charge to the
Internet population at large. We are a very popular site and the presence of
your content on this site would provide additional visibility for your
products and services. In other words, think of it as free marketing for your
movie or product.
Note that we do not alter content to add logos or other, non original,
markings to the images. We will not honor requests for such and instead will
prefer to remove the content from the site. back to top
Where can I download more images on a movie or star?
All of the images we have are available on the site. You might try a
search via Google or other search engine. If you find content that we do not
have please consider uploading it to Star Galaxy for the benefit of other

Where did you get all the images from?
The images contained in our database have come from several sources. Most
have been uploaded over the years by visitors to our site who wish to share
the content that they have collected for the benefit of other visitors. If
you have relevant images that are not in our database please consider
uploading these for others to enjoy. back to top
I have an interesting link for your site; what do I need to do to get it on Star Galaxy?
Currently we do not link to sites outside of Star Galaxy. This will likely
change in the near future; so please use our feedback form to tell us about
your link. We are particularly interested in links to the official sites of
stars or movies. back to top
Can I link to your site?
You bet, but please link to the front page or to one of the gallery pages.
Links directly to the images within the site will not function or will only
function for a short while. Star Galaxy uses a unique linking scheme to the
images internally for site efficiency and also to discourage directly
embedding Star Galaxy hosted images into other sites.
We cannot support other sites linking directly to the images on Star Galaxy
as this increases our costs. If you wish to use the images on your own site
you may download them and host them along with the rest of your site
content. back to top

images I get broken links or redirected to the home page. Why is that?

time. Your best bet is to check back periodically. back to top

permit pornoraphic material. In some instances there may be images containing
nudity if the image represents a significant aspect of a feature film. back to top
Are any of the images you have for sale?
It is very likely that most items on Star Galaxy will never be available as
saleable images as they are rare or otherwise unobtainable in other than the
electronic form already downloadable from the site.
Additionally, Star Galaxy does not own the rights to most of the content
hosted here and thus it would not be possible to provide merchandise for sale
which features this content. back to top
Can I use images from Star Galaxy on my site?
Yes, the images on Star Galaxy may be downloaded. Star Galaxy, generally,
does not own the copyright to most of the content and thus cannot grant you

Why did some of my favorite actors vanish from the galleries?
We are slowly progressing through an audit of our content to remove low
quality, inappropriate, or irrelevant content. If all content in a given
gallery ends up being removed then there will be no images displayed. If you
have content to contribue to such galleries we encourage you to contribute via
our upload facility. back to top
