I noticed that some people have a pic under the username next to their posts. Is this administrators only thing or can anyone do this. If so, how?

Well Coen,
this is a Cynops pyrrhogaster sasayama-male and the original photo was taken by me. There are two possible sources for this pic on the internet and from both sources it is possible to contact me.
Frankly, I think you should have asked me, before using it. Please use one of your own pics, Coen.

Allright, I didn't expect anyone to bother but if it's so important to you, I'll gladly use another one...

<font color="ff0000">Coen - it bothers me immensely, and it bothers me even more now because I am pretty sure you don't own _that_ photo either (the Triturus marmoratus male). If you continue to use images that belong to other people without permission, I will ban you from Caudata.org. This goes for anyone else who has similar ideas. You have been warned.</font>

Even though I don't use this picture commercially, more for fun, I'll delete them from my profile. When I get my Digicam back I'll create some of my own. Sorry guys, I couldn't imagine you'd care if I used this pics just for this forum to make things a bit nicer.

I got the second pic from Herp.it, and indeed it says: "No part of this work may be used for commercial purposes without the written permission of the authors." So I guess it's okay for me to use it just here, but I'll just leave that one, it's not even fun anymore.

Coen, it is ok to use pictures if you have received permission from the person who owns the photo before you use it. Most people won't mind but they deserve to be asked - after all, you wouldn't like it if someone took your newts without asking, would you? It's the same problem with the photos.

Yes I certainly understand, I have created a lot of graphic designs myself and I know how it is to see your own work ripped of. I'll be more cautious with photos in the future. Seeing this as a pretty close community, I didn't thought one would bother if he used just 1 pic for a signature and/or avatar.

Coen, thats just like me taking one of your designs and signing it off as my own. you'd be outraged if you spent the time working on it and i just took it without permissino and said "ha, i made this!" its not fair to others. all you need to do is ask permission and it wouldnt bother anyone.

Well kaysie, I never said I took the picture myself. I said sorry, I'm sorry it happened, it won't happen again, you know my thoughts about it, and that's about it! I don't want to get banned because of me choosing "save picture as" and then making it into my signature. I don't even care that much about a signature anyway, I just thought it would be nice. I thought wrong, hey I'm 20 years old and I make mistakes everyday. I've learned from this one. And yes i'd be outraged if someone took my designs, that's kinda what I said in the post above right?
I hope there are no hard feelings after this, I thought of this as a nice community and I'm hoping my thoughts were correct. I had no bad intentions when I took the picture. Maybe I sound lame but maybe that's just because I'm dutch and can't express myself good enough or maybe I'm just lame. That's up to you to decide!
