Posting Pictures or Photos that you haven't taken yourself

[simbalove]

Here is Forumotion's ruling on pictures/photos being posted on a forum...

When you wish to put on your forum an image or a text you haven't created yourself, you :
- ask the author for permission.
- if it gives it to you, quote your sources, for example by putting a link to the site or forum where it comes from.

Please make sure that you are either the legal owner of the photograph/pictures you post (ie you have taken the photograph) or the images are copyright/royalty free.

If you have asked permission of the owner to post their picture then please quote your source. This also goes for text/articiles or poems.
