Using Pictures in the Wiki

I have been playing with the Wiki quite a bit and I'm wondering about adding pictures of the various species. Any problem with using pictures from the bamboo pictures here and if not how should they be coded?

A link to photos should be to the URL for photos with data.

Phyllostachys acuta
http://www.bambooweb.info/ShowPictures2.php?BooID=246

For a Genus you can get photos through a URL such as:
http://www.bambooweb.info/ShowPictures2.php?Genus=Sasa
Replace "Sasa" with the name of the Genus.

When you first go to the data with photos pages it will give you a long URL but all you need is the BooID and number.

I will be redoing and adding a lot more information and links to those pages.

I was thinking more in terms of having a photos of the species on the page, such as pictures of the plant, shoots, illustrations etc. It appears that the Wiki has some provision for uploading, but I was unsure how that related to the photos section.
