Hey phriends. I am working on a new BBS and was wondering something.
When it comes to showing art from other people/groups on your BBS, what
is proper etiquette around that? Do you need to get permission to do so? Or is it OK to use so long as it is unaltered etc? I see many BBSs show artwork after logging in, signing off, etc but I wasn't sure if it was because they were formally affiliated with that group(s) or got permission, or anything like that. I learned about "ripping" recently
and see comments on some artwork that scorns those who do, so didn't
want to do the wrong thing and put art on my board that violated any social norms around the artwork.
