Yes, I know it seems silly. However, some people (not regular users -- new members) think that this site is for advertising. We just need to change that perception.

Thank you for understanding

Thanks Carol. In the future -- if you wonder -- send a PM to all the moderators. One of us is usually here. Sometimes we do this from a phone or tablet. It is easy for me to see I have a PM on my phone. It is much harder to search the entire site. So your help is very much appreciated.

I know a few Cuties that will not post in Projects out of fear. They have seen many people insist on the location. I have recently seen some demanding the design...
Not all of us remember where we get a design... Sometimes I feel lucky to remember where I parked my car. LOL

Thank you for always supporting Veronika and this site!

Thank you -- for this.
Sometimes I forget to add in words -- what my mind is thinking.
It may have to do with my day yesterday. I helped teach at my children's school, finished an order for pincushions, helped moderate the site and answered more than 30 PM's. Helped my children with homework, cleaned the house....
Yes, absolutely, you are welcome to add the information if you know (for sure) where it came from and you are sure the source is a legal source.
I am only trying to help keep the ones that do not have permission to advertise out of trouble and keep this site out of trouble.

May you have a very Happy Anniversary and many more bless you. :) Leaha

No, sorry sweet friend. I will try to make it better for language issues.
You are not guilty.
Post the name and link if the design is legal.
Post name and link if it is a design from this site or sister site.
Do not post if link is advertisement for your own website without Veronika's permission. So if Bettina sells designs do not post a link to your site.
If no link is posted do not ask for it.

ONLY if you are selling something or posting illegal Disney designs. Then, we will politely tell you no.
If you need to know where a design came from (that someone stitched out)...if it is not listed on the post -- do not ask unless you send *them* a PM for information about their stitched design

Sadly, this is a new restriction. You did nothing wrong. You could not have known that some users did not have permission. We are working on a better way to help all users understand the rules.
The problem is the recent influx of other new users that only want to advertise. They see pages of ads in Projects -- so they jump in. As soon as they do we remove the posts. That has become a greater challenge -- requiring more time from each of us than we should spend.
The handful that have permission... support this site, post less frequently and are very supportive to this site. They are professional digitizers with a track record of beautiful work that shows their skills and artistic ability.
We have had a huge influx of many new users that only want the "free advertising" Some come with auto-digitized designs. A few have tried to sell designs (on their site -- to Cuties) created by someone else. We have to make that stop.
I wish I could post more eloquently -- so that it is less confusing. I will work on that -- after I get some sleep tonight.

Hugs and thanks

Veronika loves you and you have been a long time supporter and member of this site... we love you too!
