ATTENTION all Freebie posters: Sadly, too many have ignored our pleas (made clear in March) to make sure all posts comply with OTHER websites requirements. It is part of the agreement here on Cute to abide by other websites rules.

From now on there will be NO pictures allowed in the Freebie section. All Freebies posts that include pictures will be removed. We are sorry for those who were checking and complying with the rules -- the rule applies to all.

Thank you for your diligence. Some folks just don't understand that just because it's on the Internet, it doesn't mean you can do what you want with it. Sure, you CAN copy a picture, but that doesn't mean you are ALLOWED to copy a picture.

I'm sorry for the extra work it is causing you, but I'm glad all is being done to protect the Cute website. Thanks to you and the other Moderators and to Miss Vicki for everything you do for us.

Many websites do not allow any portion of their website (including pictures of their designs) to be copied and used on other websites for any reason. That information is located in the Terms and Conditions of websites.

Ah. Tks for clarifying that, rescuer! I didn't know exactly what that meant either, but trust you & the rest of the gals completely to keep us legal!

If it will keep the site from getting into trouble, then that is what is important. We will adapt. At least we can post links, also within the rule guidelines. Thank You for all that the Moderators do to help keep this site safe.
