Raiders Copyrighted Images

[RaiderDee]

[With the new influx of new members, the number of copyright infractions has increased. I have PM'd folks in the past to either alter the size of sigs too large or have asked for them to specifically remove COPYRIGHTED Oakland Raiders related images from their sigs and avatars, but it's getting to be exhausting to have to PM members about the infractions and WAIT until WHENEVER for that member to change his/her sig/avatar. So, I'm giving folks a ONE WEEK heads up. After one week, I will begin disabling members abilities to display sigs and avatars ON SIGHT until that member has acknowledged the infraction and has made an attempt to alter the image or submit a request for a new sig or avatar.

This **** is serious people. This casual disregard for this websites rules will no longer be tolerated. Displaying sigs and avatars is a privilage and not a right. And as the Graphics moderator, I feel it is my duty to ensure this particular guideline be enforced with vigor and due diligence. If you are confused as to what Raiders images are copywritten; if you didn't take the picture yourself, then it is owned by someone else. Whomever took the related image is the copyright holder. If it is a Raider related image that one of Raiderfans.net staff or other member took, then it can be used as a sig or avatar on this site.

Copyrighted Raider Images - This is a MAJOR RULE handed down from BK. By no means are sigs to have ANY Raider "shield logos" in them. Nor, can they have ANY picture or image of a Raider player that has NOT been taken by OUR staff photographers or members of this site! Essentially, if it wasn NOT taken by you or any of the Raiderfans.net staff and it contains a Raider player, logo, or staff member, then it is NOT TO BE USED!
