eh, a while ago Evil Trout rejected some forum logos (small icons) for community forums because they weren’t free images. All images used in forumwarz are also free stock images or self-created. But forumbuildr banners often use non free stock images. This week’s one has pics from The Flintstones and Popeye.. is that not a breach of copyright? And if it’s not, then why did you reject those forum icons? |

ET said he would let these slip, since these are not commercial (IE CZ-made) forums.
It’s going to change in the future, so enjoy while you can?
The icons were refused because CZ are the ones to decide whether they’re in or not. CZ doesn’t decide forum logos. Fran edited this message on 11/07/2008 10:16AM |

Ripping images directly is one thing. Creating a new image out of existing images is another. AUNTIE-LUNG edited this message on 11/07/2008 10:17AM |

makes sense, but you said it’s going to change? what’ll happen to all the existing banners? no more banners? |

Probably. We won’t know for sure until it changes. |

Flinstones and Popeye are in public domain. Or at least there likeness is. Turner Industries own the shows, and Ted Turner owns the internet so its okay. |
