What happens when I register? Will you use my private information for Bad Things?

When you register, five things happen:
1) You get your own profile, where people can leave messages.
2) You are able to upload own graphics to our system.
3) You are able to vote for other people's graphics.
4) You can comment on graphics.

We won't give out your private information to other companies and we won't send you spam mail. For more information regarding privacy, please see the privacy statement on the registration form.

Are all graphics allowed on Glitter-Graphics?

We don't allow graphics that are copyrighted by any person other than yourself. However, sometimes it's really hard to find out whether a graphic is indeed copyrighted or not, so you still might find copyrighted material on our website. If that is the case, please contact us: we will remove the particular image. We can not and do not actively monitor the status of the content on this website.

Glitter-Graphics is meant to be a clean and friendly website: racist or pornographic graphics are refused by our moderation team.

I've found my work on your site and it needs to be removed!

Please consult our Terms of Service for details on how to best file a report with us. Be assured that we take such reports seriously and will remove your content from our site promptly.

How do I upload layouts?

Oh no! I'm all out of votes, yet there's this really nice image I still want to vote for. Give me more votes? Please?

Votes are restored every 24 hours, so don't worry, you'll get your votes back soon enough!

I've uploaded an image to your website, but it hasn't appeared yet. What happened?

The image probably still needs to be checked by our moderation team. This can take up to twenty-four hours, depending on your time zone.

What is the age rating I see on the upload form?

All ages: no nudity, sexual content, drug use or strong language.

13+ : Some profanity or sexual content, intense enough that many parents would not want to expose their younger children to the graphic, but not so intense as to warrant an 18+ rating.

18+ : Inappropriate for children, but no intense violence, explicit sexual content or extensive drug use.

I have a question that is not yet answered in this FAQ. Help!

No sweat! You can email us at support@glitter-graphics.com about everything you still need to know and we'll answer you as soon as possible.

Glossary:

Animated GIFs
Images with movement, existing of multiple frames. Called GIFs cause all images have the .gif extension.

Avatars
Square images that you can use to represent yourself on a forum or on your Myspace profile. Sometimes also called usericons.

Blinkies
Broad images that you can use on your profile to show others who you are, or on others' profiles to leave them a tiny message. Called blinkies because usually they are animated.

Clipart
Non-moving images of any kind. Normally used to make a profile or website more fun to visit.

Dividers
Broad bars which you can use to split up large texts. Using one type of divider per page gives the best effect.

Dolls
Cartoonish images of girls (and sometimes boys.) You can use these as a graphical representation of what you and your friends look like in real life.

Glitter Graphics
Sparkling images of any kind. They are also animated, but in such manner that they appear to glitter.

Glitter Text
Same as glitter graphics, but then textual. For example, you can use these on someone else's profile to leave a sparkling message that immediately draws attention.

Myspace Layouts
Premade designs for your Myspace profile. Just enter the code and your profile will look entirely different, with colors, fonts, a background and sometimes a video code
