jabraulter Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Using photos for sigs.....for example mine. I did not take the picture, but found it on a google search. Plently of other people use pics like these in their sigs, but I wanted to see how other people felt about it......thinking maybe it's ripping? :roll: Just wanting some opinions. But I thought it was an awesome picture, and I'm all about simplicity in my sigs. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axeraider70 Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 The only problem i have with taking sigs from google is that you know somebody else has that same pic somewhere else... aka its not original or w/e... Its not considered ripping until you put your name on it imo. axeraider70.deviantART.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimlem Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Can't see your siggy, but Photos are totally cool. Sometimes, I prefer just cropping a pretty google photo as my sig. As long as you don't take credit, it's fine. :D -miZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_Rod_The_Ti Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 It's fine by me... I'd prefer if you took the pic on your own however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loth Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 I really like it. I see nothing wrong with using a picture for a sig. Although I like the ava more then the sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 its considered ripping. images on google are not stock images. stock images are images which poeple have allowed you to use for anything you want. deviantart has a section for stock images and there are plenty of sites for them aswell. the only way you could use an image from google search is if you ask the author for permission even if it is a photo.
