File talk:Double-stranded RNA with genome deletions.png

Source? -- notjusttired (talk) 18:58, July 31, 2019 (EDT)

Hi User:Hip - do you know where this image came from? I can't find myself. If it's got a license for reuse I was thinking of adding it to the RNA page notjusttired (talk) 18:58, July 31, 2019 (EDT)

notjusttired, I created that image myself, based on an image found on the web, but substantially modified in a painting app on my Mac.

The image was originally intended for use on the Non-cytolytic_enterovirus article, but in the end I did not use it. You can delete this image if you like. Or if you want to keep it, please give it the most liberal non-attribution license so that anyone can do what they like with it. Hip (talk) 19:41, July 31, 2019 (EDT)

notjusttired This image is probably not much use on the RNA page, because this particular image represents a very specific type of RNA with mutations in it (as represented by the green section). It's only useful purpose would be in the Non-cytolytic_enterovirus article, which refers to mutated RNA.

If you want a good source of free images, you can search commons.wikimedia.org for RNA helix images, and Pixabay is another good source of free images. Interestingly, in many images found online, they actually draw the DNA or RNA spiral helix running in the wrong sense — see this article — so make sure your find an RNA helix that runs in the right way!
