2. Posting artwork is fine, but only if it is your own art, or public gifs, pictures, memes, or videos. None of these should be above a PG-13 rating, and there should not be gore or nudity in anything. If you need to post someone's personal artwork from sites like Twitter, tumblr, Pivix, DeviantArt or other related art-sharing sites, please do credit them appropriately. If that image contains someone's watermark, it should not be posted.
So, I'm a bit confused on artwork use. If it is custom art created by someone (vector, hand-drawn, etc.), then we can't use it unless we give them the proper credit. However, if it's official art or picture(s) from, say, a TV show, can we post that without credit? Sorry if this is obvious. I just want to get this clear before I start my graphics shop.

I wouldn't use images that do not specifically say they are free to use. If it's copyrighted material, I would try to steer away and not post it. Instead, try to use stock images for banners. There are many stock images that are completely safe to use, and are a great alternative.

I think official art is fine since it's often allowed for use in fan-graphics

Not from warriors though, like, from games and tv shows

As a graphic designer, I agree with Brownie. Unless if I have permission from the copyright owner, I use images that are free to use or are allowed modification in some way.

No, you can't use created art even with credit unless the artist said you could.
I would say you can use, say, a gif from a TV show because no one is under the impression that you made it.

@ All: Thanks for your help! I'll definitely stick to stock photos and my own photos/drawings. c:
