    I believe the consensus it that you may post the picture if it's yours. For pictures that belong to someone elses websites, it's more polite to post link so you are not stealing their bandwidth everytime someone opens that thread. As for smilies, you may download them into your gallery or other photobucket type account, and then it is ok to post them. I hope that helps. Although it's a bit early in the morning for me to be actually trying to explain anything. :firstcup:

Every single time that thread is clicked on, all those images draw bandwidth off someone else's website...and that's just bad mojo!

    So please...please...if you want to use them, you must download them either to your OWN server space where you pay for the bandwidth used...or to your own gallery space right here at BP.net.

    Those posts would start looking funny if all the smilies got deleted. ;) :P

    Thank you for listening and understanding! :hug:

    I think it's a great policy! ... The few times I've needed to use "non stock" smilies, I've just uploaded them to my own site ... works great! ;)

    ROCK ON Judy, I'm with you on this one!! :sweeet:
