useful guidelines offered on that thread by JR:
from JR:
We don’t want q posts on our regular forum threads. Too many flamewars. They’re allowed only on their threads posted in chat/conspiracy. It’s easy to find if you want to read them.
re: pics
FROM JR:
Too many copyrighted photos posted. Needed reviewing. Please do not post photos from AP, Getty, Corbis, etc.
Q? - “Thanks JIM.
Some of the confusion is posting directly from twitter. Is it alright to post those links and let them deal with copyright?”
A. “You can post links, just not the html img src coding that makes the image appear on our page. Thanks”
see above.
SO.
We either need to determine that the pic we are copying from twitter is not from the forbidded sources and can then post them with html
OR we assume every pic is forbidden sourced and just do a link without html.
