And Marck could put the Roguemoticon link and the PCWSmileys link (they are two separate sites, run separately) on his Silverstones page--the link to which is at the bottom of every TB! list post. For you, Ian, so you can Park this information--you might even put it into a SmartBat memo-- Roguemoticons: http://www.pcwize.com/thebat/ PCWSmileys (includes: Smileys, Flags, Personal Pets, Avatars): http://www.pcwize.com/thebat/pcwsmileys.php When uploading an image for all to share on the PCWSmiley page, please e-mail me at Trill at Pcwize dot com. If you can't make the information in the above sentence out, just write to me at the PM address in the headers to this post. Please don't merely post the message though--I might miss it. :) Tell me--you know this Ian, it's just to encourage others to share and let me know who's sharing, that is, uploading an image-- Tell me, in the e-mail, which of 7 places the image falls as to copyright status: 1) Uploading person owns the image and gives permission to distribute it. 2) Uploading person believes the image is in the public domain, and is here giving the place it was obtained from, with the reason it appears to be in the public domain--if it's a website, the URL, too, please, if you have it. 3) Uploading person believes the image is under copyright and appends the chain of correspondence through which was obtained the copyright owner's permission for distribution through the PCWSmileys data base. 4) Uploading person got the emoticon from www.emoticons4u.com , which is a site where the website owner, Niels Kolb, has sent permission to use emoticons from, in addition to his opinion that all the emoticons there are in the public domain. Or, 5) Uploading person got the flag being uploaded from http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/docs/flagsoftheworld.html the only site we know of, so far, where the flag images appear to be in the public domain. 6) If it's an Avatar, the situation may be complex. Write to me the copyright status circumstances of any image used in the Avatar. 7) Personal pet photos that you own are most welcome. Please send them as jpegs or gifs--better around 5 to 10 Kb and fairly small dimensions, to fit well on a page of text when used there. But if you can't get them down in size, send an attachment to me by PM. I have Irfanview (an image program) and I can do that for you. Personally, I very much enjoy seeing other people's pets. I've recently put up two pictures of my own. -- Best regards, Mary (Mary Bull, PCWSmileys Administrator). http://www.PCWize.com/thebat/PCWSmileys.php :trill: The Bat! 2.12.00 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
