Your #1 community for graphics, layouts, glitter text, animated backgrounds and more.
I never fail, I only succeed at finding ways that do not work (online status not displayed)
Many people are unaware of what is "theft" of graphics. Many people do not understand the difference between what is allowed to be done with graphics and what is not. Here are some basic out lines of what you can and can not do with graphics on the net: Uploading graphics from one Graphics site to any other Graphics sites, is considered redistributing. Redistributing graphics with out the artist permission is STEALING! Photo Bucket is NOT Public Domain and many of the graphics there are there without the artists permission. Many people do not realize that they should set their albums to PRIVATE to keep their Pictures and graphics from being stolen. Many do not realize that if they are collecting graphics they like in their albums they are also allowing those graphics to be stolen if their album is not set to PRIVATE. That is very unfair the the artists of those graphics because many people do not realize that PHOTO BUCKET and site like it are NOT PUBLIC DOMAIN. Photo Bucket is NOT a good place to get graphic resources (graphics you can use to make graphics or layouts). If you use graphics from Photo Bucket chances are that you are stealing somebody's hard work, or Personal Pictures. If you are using graphic creation sites such as Blingee or Imikimi to "make" graphics even if you crop off the site name, it is stealing if you redistribute them by uploading those graphics to other Graphic sites. Those site are for making PERSONAL graphics for use on PRIVATE sites such a family web pages, memorial sites ect. only. DO NOT use graphics found on Glitter-Graphics to "make" graphics or layouts, it is STEALING and against the TOU (terms of use)of the site. PERSONAL USE ONLY means you can use the graphics to decorate and send to friends on personal sites such as here on GG, MYSPACE, Private Family web sites and private memorial sites. Taking a graphic and "altering" it (adding a background, frame, wording or covering over parts such as the signature tag) does not make that graphic yours, it is still stolen unless you have gotten permission from the original artist to use the graphic. Do Not use any art that you do not know who the artist is or where it is from, and always give credit the the artist who's work you use. There are many sites on the net that provide resource artwork for making graphics. Make sur to always follow each artists ToU. Thank You to all of my friends that have made me these wonderful graphics! I download and save EVERY graphic made for me. I have a huge amount of computer storage space :)

"When an American says that he loves his country,
he means not only that he loves the New England hills,
the prairies glistening in the sun, the wide and rising plains,
the great mountains, and the sea.
He means that he loves an inner air,
an inner light in which freedom lives
and in which a man can draw the breath of self-respect."
~ Adlai Stevenson
I have a busy week ahead, but I didn't want to miss a
chance to send a note and wish everyone a fun week.
To all my fellow Americans, I wish a safe and festive fourth.
Hugs to all!

PS Happy Canada Day, Siabhra!

Please click and help me thank Amber for this lovely tag! Thanks!
So far so good...my page seems to be opening better this a.m.
Thanks to Serhat for working on the issues and to Roni for
being my advocate while the work was taking place. I hope all has
settled down now. I know it must have been frustrating for
all of you, my friends, to try and post on my page. Thanks to all
of you for "hanging in there!"
Wishing you a beautiful day!
Big Hugs, Rita

Dear Friend,
I am experiencing some serious issues with my account.
It has become difficult for friends to post on my page
and next to impossible for me to navigate here. I have
tried to open a new account, but G-G doesn't send me the
appropriate link to activate the account, so I don't know
what else to do. I want to wish you a wonderful new week
and tell you that I will try and keep in touch the best I
can until I find a solution to all the issues.
Big Hugs, Rita
