so we've all seen the resources forums out there where members post up graphics and you can use them for your characters right?
well, they probably all say 'no ripping' or 'no hotlinking' or 'rehost' or multiple ones.
hotlinking
hotlinking is when you take the image and use the link that the creator provided it with, this is wrong and can lead to bandwidths being exceeded.
ripping
when you take something from another person and claim it as your own, even if it is only part of what they have made.
both of the above are prohibited on this forum.
but there is a cure.
rehosting
when you see the term 'rehost' or 'rehosting' it means that you either save the image to your computer and upload it to a server (like photobucket, imageshack, tinypic, etc.) or, if possible, copy and paste the link onto the server and upload it that way.
