Hey Gang,

Well, you guys and gals are most likely going to hate me after you hear this..and Im going to apologize now...feel free to bite me over it. {within reason, cuz I do have a tendency to bite back }

There was some confusion among the freestuff staff recently, and Im going to place the blame squarely upon myself because I might have not been as clear as I could have been in what we are allowing under the new freestuff policy.

HTML

While browsing thru the freestuff I noticed some items that have been using HTML in the file upload area.

This is not allowed. This is circumventing the freestuff hosting policy and upload requirements.

The only place html is allowed is in the notes section for such things as additional product promos, or more information pertaining to that specific item.

Links in Notes Section

Text links {not banner ads} are allowed also in the notes section, but the link can only lead to the specific item being offered..it cannot lead to your personal website freestuff pages.

File Upload Box

The only thing that can be placed in this box is a zipped archive containing the actual item advertised. No Text Links or HTML in a text document are allowed.

We have the Freestuff Forum here for the exact purpose of placing links to your's or others freestuff items offsite..this is where you may place links to your own personal freestuff pages.

We made this forum for that very purpose, that and getting the freestuff links out of the other forums and get them all in one place. So we aren't completely stopping all offsite personal freestuff pages, nor links to them...its just no longer allowed in the upload/download area.

I know some of you will disagree, and some will not like this, and again I do apologize..there are aways going to be different changes coming down the tubes that we may not all like, but we all learn roll with it.

If you have questions, feel free to post them here and I will help wherever I can.

Thanks!
