Hi everyone, I have a little question, are we allowed to use someone else icons as forum avatars ?
For example my current avatar is an icon from the GANT set, am I allowed to use it as my avatar ?
If not, please tell me and I will remove it at once. Although I remember some people using some OS X icons as avatars here, especially the Finder icon. Anyways just tell me if I'm allowed to that. Thanks 
I would be guessing you need permission...
I as an admin here, I don't have a problem with it, but the icon artist might be a pain in the ass about it. So do what you feel is best, better you ask, but if you don't, you won't get banned for it.
Technially it's personal use, but if the original artist doesn't like it... well, you never know.
Just do it. I don't think the author can do anything unless you don't comply with removal.
I don't see why any author would care unless you were like "look at my avatar I made it myself."
Well I'm going to keep it since Timan does not have a problem. However if the original author complains and tells me to change my avatar I will. Thanks guys
