Can I use the GNU FDL for an image, or should I use CC? I checked the documentation but it's unclear.

I've seen plenty of images on Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons that were licensed under the GFDL, so it would seem that you can. My preference (as shown on pointlessness (http://pointlessness.freehostia.com/) is to dual-license my content under both the GFDL (http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html) and cc-by-sa (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/) as they're very similar to each other but everyone seems to have a different opinion on which they prefer.
