Contributing other photos

If GPO doesn't have a photo for someone in their member guide, we may be willing to accept a photo from another source.

In this case, open a ticket, and include:

  • The name and Bioguide ID of the member of Congress.
  • A link to the image you're suggesting we incorporate, and to a page that displays that image.
  • Why you believe the image is definitely official and in the public domain.

When submitting a PR for an image found outside of the GPO, use the URL for the context of the photo, not the image source URL, as the value for link: in metadata/*.yaml.
