Effective immediately I am requesting that all members only upload images without logos from other sites on them.

Historically, this has been disregarded by the moderators, admins, and myself.

The problem with logos on the images arises from the potential for legal consequences should a site wish to penalize us for redistribution of their images.

I am requesting that the moderators and administrators remove images posted after this topic that contain such watermarks/emblems/logos.

Thanks.

Alright, will do. I'm sure it would be fine if you guys removed the logo from the picture though. As long as you can't tell it was there, it will be fine.

But try and make it not noticeable. Its hard to not rip off other people's pictures since not everyone is going to go out and try to find funny picture themselves. That would require too much effort.

GIMP is comparable to photoshop, and free. Supports all major operating systems. Has a steep learning curve, however.

So, if we have to take out a watermark or emblem, we have to make it look like there wasn't one there in the first place?
We can't just blur it over or something?

Just make sure you can't read it anymore.

Message recieved.

Cloning over a watermark isn't too hard. Or if it's too complicated a background to make it look like there was nothing there, then an easy crop should suffice, or you could just place a YN logo over the top of it and have 2 YN logos?

Ein Schrei wird zum Himmel fahren, Schneidet sich durch Engelsscharen. "Mein herz brennt, gib mir kraft." Der kalte Mond in voller Pracht hört die Schreie in der Nacht... und kein Engel steigt herab.

The thing is, you get the same credit for an image submission as you do an article. Finding a funny image and posting it requires next to no effort, whereas writing a good exploration/how to takes time and effort. This does make submitting images harder, but it also makes it a little fairer to those who would rather add articles to the site.
