Topic: Question about introduction thread

[Snow Cherry]

Was just wondering...  I used to welcome people in the introduction thread but after a while I realized I had a rated R avatar (at that time) and some rated R stuff in my siggie, and unapproved members might see it...  so I stopped 'cause I didn't want to get into trouble. You know, stuff like that should not be in the introduction thread. Ever since I have been wondering if unapproved members are really able to see those parts of our profile? I have not fallen across the answer yet so I thought I might ask and get it off my mind.      Thanks in advance!

If you mean links to O/Os, they can't see that. External links can, but have been strongly suggested to be removed (read ; RH = NO!)
Avatars should fit public face anyway.

The unapproved cannot see your signature or view your profile, at all. So long as your avatar fits the sites guidelines (no genitalia & whatnot), you are ok

What Kit said is correct.

So the avatar I had at the time showed nude breasts... as kit's does, just for example. Would it have been appropriate for me to welcome people in the introduction thread with a avatar like that? - just for clarification?

I am assuming it was not appropriate after reading your responses.

As long as your avatar fits within site guidelines, you can post in introduction threads. I'm not quite sure what your previous avatar was, but so long as it fit guidelines, you would have been fine.

Snow Cherry, the guidelines on Avatars so far as I've been able to locate them, are here.

Breasts and bums are acceptable, genitalia is not. Though, for myself I have tried to steer away from showing actual nipples as well, but that is just a preference. If in doubt you can always show the avatar to a Staff member.

Thank you all for your answers.

*raises hand* As one of the afflicted, I would politely say that a well displayed pair of breasts is always acceptable in a "pleased to meet you" format. You'll hear no complaints from me.

Welcome to E, Writersblockade. If you get approved you'll find all sorts of other nice things around the site much better than avatars.
