What are the rules for those images that go on the bottom of your posts?  I imagine that they can't be rated "R", but I have seen some that are quite borderline to being "R" rated.  Pictures of a guy/girl in just their underclothes, would that be acceptable?  I have seen a couple of them around and it personally is somewhat offending to me.  Are their regulations and if so what do you do about someone whose pictures aren't quite acceptable?

I don't mind the blinkies it is the pictures of almost nude people.  Isn't there a regulation or something about that?

I haven't even figured out how to put an avatar on my posts.  Someday I will sit down and try to educate myself.  I have all the pictures on signature lines blocked out.  So I never see them.
