Just a reminder on using avatars & pictures within the forum

Copyright law covers all pictures on the Internet. Only use images that belong to you. Or if you use someone else’s image you MUST get their permission first. If I get sued for breach of copyright law the forum will close. DO NOT link images from other peoples web sites without permission, this uses their Bandwidth which they have to pay for.
The same above applies to Avatars. Please keep them to a decent size. Any that are too big will be removed.

many thanks

Suzy :)

Hi Suzy,

What do you mean by a too big avatar. Take for instance mine, it is a 141x217 avatar. Do you consider it big? If that is the case then I will change it inmediatly.

Salut,

Rafael

Hi Rafael

I think your avatar is fine :)  

Generally by too big, we mean ones that are half the size of the page, and you have to keep scrolling right to find the message :o


Kindest Regards

Suzy

Half a page???.. Oh yes, that would be really big ;)

Thanks,

Rafael.
