Quote - Hello everyone, I was asked to take my Gallery down because i had used some picture tubes in  some of my images , I think this person should  take a look at others in Rendo who have used tubes instead of picking on one person. i was told to remove my gallery or she would do it for me. And oh buy the way i am a girl not a man LOLS i got a good laugh out of that.... the male angeldust doesnt use the underscore as i do. I thank you all for your concerns . i wish you all good luck in everything and your art work.

I think it all depends on what tubes are being used. Not all are royalty free.  And if they are cropped from existing art, those are often never ok to use unless you have the permission of the artist to use them and then you need to give copyright credit to them.

There are sites around that offer tubes made in poser or by vector or by digital painting.  And many of them don't require credit back.

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
