Avatars, Board Rules, etc.

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

>:( No posting warez site links / serial numbers etc

>:( No linking to images offsite, unless you haved permission and they are on your own web site. That also means no using avatars that are on someone elses web site (unless its your own site).

>:( If you can avoid it, dont post images directly into your posts, provide a link instead. Some people are still on dialup / metered access.

>:( No Advertising, no SPAM

>:( No selling of goods or services (thats what EBAY is for)

>:( No Abandonware links or offerings.

You should rephrase that a bit.

Don't use avatars on other peoples websites unless you have permission from the owner of the site.

And don't link to other peoples images without the site owners permission.

But there's nothing about avatars. Can I put every pic I want as my avatar. And also about the text. ;)

As long as it isn't offensive to other members, I presume that it's ok to use any avatar you wish(as long as you either host it, or have permission to use it if linked from another site).
