Quick question: Do we have permission to use that emoticon? Most come from free use sites ... hopefully this does as well.

Grad, did you add that from the admin control panel or does it need to be added to the image server (hopkins) first?

I did not think of that. :( I just tracked down the guy on his vbulletin forum elsewhere. He is responding to my pm as we speak.
good to go
Not at all! I'm flattered and delighted to be asked. I wish I had something clever to say about its use in discussions of Ohio State sports, but sadly I am totally deficient in the subject.

Enjoy, and thanks again for the courtesy of your request.

Good Jlow. We definently want permision to use FIRST. Let us know what you find out.

Secondly, the emoticon as presently displayed is linking to the deviantart web site. This is 'leeching' and we do NOT want to do such a thing. I say that as it pertains to the emoticon IF we are allowed to use it as part of our 'set' of icons here at BuckeyePlanet. If someone posts it in a singular fashion, then so be it. BUT, we do not want this as part of our 'list' of icons if it links to the deviantart site. If we gain permission to use, then we need to upload this graphic to our server and host it locally.

EDIT: I see we have permission ... great. I will take down the icon for the time being and reload it after it is 'hosted' on our server.

Eh, no idea how to do any of that...dammit, I need to stick to raking the infield.

Well, at least I got the ball rolling :)
