a dumb qus

i know it is dumb but are you allowed to use pics from the internet for your avatar?

That is not a dumb question.

That is not a dumb question. Smiling Yes, you may as long as you credit the owner of the artwork. Unless they state not to use it without their permission. Some people on DeviantArt post free icons for people to use. Smiling

okay i saw this pic in a

okay i saw this pic in a video do you think i could use it as my avatar if who ever used it in there video? also it said pic may be subect to copyright does that mean i can use it?

I suppose it depends on the

I suppose it depends on the video, like, if it is a music video by a singer or band then you must credit them, but, if it is a fan made video and the picture is not theirs, I suppose you could use it.
If it is subject to copyright, you must credit the person it belongs to. Smiling

If you can show me the picture I could better help you. Smiling

Okay, well. Your signature

Okay, well. Your signature would run together much more smoothly with punctuation marks and certain edits. I thought perhaps you could edit your signature to this:

Traveling to the horizon;so free. Free as the wolves in the valley. Watch the deer stand, watch their fawns. The bison come and go. Elk watch the valley. What is this valley? The Valley of Hope.

That 'correction' has


That 'correction' has improper use of the semicolon and sentence fragments. Unless help is solicited, just let Red write as Red writes.

Ahem. Anyways, regarding the original topic... If you cannot find the page the image is originally displayed on and/or its original posting by the true author does not explicitly say "this is available for anyone to use," I would not use the image. It's easy enough to find one that is available with the owner's permision, or to make your own :3

Then it might be an unknown artist. You can simply state in you signature that the artist of your icon is unknown. Smiling

Just leave your icon up for now. I would help you search it, but I am on my phone, and it does not have that option when I pull up google. Unless, Aivilo or keepspeeps might like to help instead of debating about your signature.

I would like to add that since her poem is free form it is not bound to any specific rules or formats. Smiling

I've given Red relevant suggestions regarding the image as well, Nika, and in that original post said "let Red write how Red writes" Sticking out tongue Kept it in a click-down instead of filling the whole page for a reason.

Red - I can't find an original artist's name, just some sites about 'amazing migrations' in Chinese and this page: http://www.ulala.org/p_pigeon/map.html
I'd just link to that one and say you got it there.
