Copyright Statement and Usage
of the FirstView Gallery
Membership and use of the FirstView
Gallery is free, and
no rights are conferred by the acceptance of any registration.
In particular it is not possible to guarantee the long-term
storage of any image.
This Gallery is NOT an official AP resource and
is intended solely for the hosting of images for submission
to the Amateur
Photographer Forum's FirstView Project, and its facilities
are not to be used for other purposes. Images uploaded should
not be of a pornographic nature, racially offensive, defamatory,
or illegal. The administrators of the site reserve the right
to remove any images that they feel breach any of these conditions,
and if necessary to terminate the membership of anyone misusing
the site.
The gallery may be browsed freely by registered members
and others. Comment facilities and such like are also available
to be used. However, once again the administrators reserve
the right to edit or delete any content they feel is inappropriate.
Comments should be in keeping with the AP
Forum Rules and Guidelines.
The site's motivating purpose is to provide an archive for
the FirstView project for the foreseeable future. However,
members may delete their images at any time. Furthermore,
FirstView participants are under no obligation to use the
gallery for hosting their images if they do not want them
to be part of the archive. Images uploaded to the AP FirstView
Gallery site and the copyrights thereof remain the property
of their owners. You should not upload any image unless you
are the copyright holder, or have their express permission.
Normally, given the nature of FirstView, the former should
apply. You may 'hot-link' your images to the AP FirstView
threads, naturally, but if you wish to hot-link them anywhere
else we ask that you also provide a link back to the gallery
or to the FirstView forum in the same location.
Please remember that the forum image posting rules apply.
Your images should be no more than 600 pixels on the longest
edge, and no more than 100kB in size. The FirstView Gallery
software will automatically resize any images that are more
than 600 pixels on either edge, but it won't prevent anything
over 100kB being uploaded, so you will still need to keep
an eye on this.
