Forum:Images from Wikimedia Commons

Is it possible to show images from the Wikimedia Commons on a Wikia page, or do I have to download all images from there, upload them here, and copy the copyright information? --Silent Budgie 19:29, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

I find it ironic that I can import flickr images via Special:ImportFreeImages, but have no convenient way to import or link to Wikimedia commons images. I've read that the mediawiki software provides a method to display images from commons directly (and transparently), couldn't Wikia just turn that on for all wikis? --◄mendel► 10:40, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
