hypothetically:
would it be against BWW rules for person A to copy a photo of person B out of person B's photo gallery then manipulate it and use it as person A's avatar?
Don't f*ck with me fellas. This ain't my first time at the rodeo.

sueleen had di2's photo for a long time so i'm guessing it's not against the rules... and i thnk liam had dolly's photo for a while... that was a little creepy though.
if someone has your photo and you dont want them to just ask them to take it down.

Posted: 2/21/06 at 4:23pmI'm not sure if there are specific rules about it, but if you want to make sure that nothing happens to your pictures, don't post them.

Yeah, Liam's picture of Dolly was kinda scary. I mean, the whole head switch, harm on chest thing.
Freaky.

Posted: 2/21/06 at 7:27pmwhile perhaps not against the rules, I would not do it unless I asked the person first. That's just showing respect.

Posted: 2/21/06 at 7:31pmIt's not kosher, IMO, but there's a lot of taboo behavior that isn't specifically covered by the official rules here. Take one of my actual photos- ones that I took- and I will scream copyright. Just sayin'.

Posted: 2/22/06 at 3:08pmOr better yet, if you post a picture, watermark it, or write a big "Copyright by...and the year" over it. To the extent that you still can see the picture, but everyone knows it's yours.

Posted: 2/22/06 at 3:11pmi've been violated by this heinous practice and can tell you it's one of the most demeaning feelings that a person can ever experience. anyone who's thinking about doing this should think long and hard if they want to incur such a karmic debt. only the very lowest of the low around here are willing to sink to such a venemous level.

a long time ago, someone had my pic I took of Jenna Leigh Green as their avatar...and I didn't care, but made a friendly comment..and then the person bitched me out..for no reason....
Anyone is welcome to use my photos, just don't be a bitch to me....that's my story :)
love,
Steph
and all that I could do because of you was talk of love...

Posted: 2/23/06 at 10:44amno i don't care if someone uses my photos, i care if someone uses a photo of ME then manipulates it and adds text and makes that their avatar. Hester Prynne is a bad, bad girl.

I question why *anyone* would post their real photo here, even for a second. You have to know that's looking for trouble, ESPECIALLY if you happen to be a controversial poster... Craig and Rob, of course, being a heartbeat away from the delete button are exempt.

c) want to share my photos with ya'll

Posted: 2/23/06 at 12:05pmGood point, iflit, because if someone's photos could be used here, then they could also be used anywhere.
Rest in peace, Iflitifloat.
