Quote - > Quote - My apologies for not responding sooner.  I wanted to check to make sure on somethings before I responded. 

It has always been a rule that resources, etc could not be linked to as links to offsite products are not allowed and links to freebies are only allowed in the Freestuff Forum.  However, as of August 15th, all links to DevianArt are prohibited except in the FreeStuff Forum as they are advertising text and are not allowed.  

I hope that clarifies things :)  The staff realizes that this is a big change and will take some time to adjust to (for the staff too!).  Please feel free to contact any of us with questions, comments, or concerns you have so that we can do our best to make this change as smooth and painless as possible for everyone.    

Can you please clarify what you mean by advertising text? I'm still not sure what you mean? Do you mean I cannot link to my DA gallery in my signature area, as there are a lot of people who are still doing that, so seems unlikely. I'm not sure that my gallery counts as 'advertising text' - so I'm still not sure what you mean when you speak of 'advertising text'? (sorry, but this internet stuff is a bit of a mystery to me at the best of times!)

I've also been trying to find out how to link to a larger image posted else where, say on deviant art, and have been told to right click and insert the hyperlink. Now that can be done directly to the full size image, such as;-http://www.deviantart.com/download/325041922/arabian_prince_ii_by_mbinz-d5dirya.png and as that is just an image, I am confused about that as well... as that is on deviantart?

 

This was started on August 15th,so all images from that date forward can't have Deviantart links on them or in the comment section in any form.It's advertising text because you can sell or give away items that are similar to the some of the items here at Renderosity.(hope I phrased that correctly) I'm not sure how to link images posted elsewhere to here so hopefully someone will know this.
