• Anything ‘published’ on the web is viewed as intellectual property and, regardless of whether it displays a copyright symbol or not, is therefore copyrighted by the originator. The only exception to this is if there is a “free and unrestricted reuse” statement associated with the work.

    In order to protect our members and TFL from possible litigation, all members must abide by the following new rules:

    1. Copying and pasting entire articles from another site to TFL is strictly prohibited. The same applies to articles from print or other media, and to posting photographs taken of copyrighted pages or other media.

    2. Copyright law provides for “fair use” of portions of a copyrighted work. You can copy no more than a SINGLE paragraph from the article to your post (3 or 4 sentences at most).

    3. You must provide a link to the article along with the name of website. For example: ww.xxx.yyy/zzz (The Lower Thumbsuck Daily News).

    4. You must provide, in your own words, a brief summary of the article AND your reasons for believing it will be of interest to TFL members. Failure to do so may result in the thread being closed or your post being deleted as a “cut and paste drive by.”

    5. Photographs and other images are also copyrighted. "Hotlinking" of images (so that it appears in your message) from other sites is also prohibited unless you own rights to the image. If you wish to share an image, provide a clickable link to it.

    Posts that do not follow these new guidelines will be altered or deleted by staff. Members who continue to violate this policy may lose their posting privileges at TFL.

    Thank you for your cooperation and your participation in TFL, the leading online forum for firearms enthusiasts.

Folks! I just joined today. I have enabled the Avatar Option, but cannot find any Tab or Link to post an Avatar to my Logon Name. Please Advise! Paul in Hobe Sound, Fla. :(
 
Yes But! When I was customizing my Profile, there was a Box to Click called allow Avatars! I am referring to a small photo or Drawing just under your Logon Name on the Left side of Post! You al don't have them? Paul in Hobe Sound, Fla.
 
I would like to see avatars in use here.

Assuming half of them are actual photos of the person commenting, it could prove or disprove a theory I have regarding the majority of users of this site...

Nope, it doesn't say "allow Avatars", it says "Show Avatars". If we allowed avatars, checking that box would have made them visible.
