Odds are no one will care but if someone does and they get a dmca to take it down they will, with consequences, and if it happens more than once you can get a community ban.
Thanks for the fast reply!
Owners of copyright material pay huge amounts of money in advertising costs to get their imagery published to draw people's attention to their wares.
My profile pic is specifically provided by the makers of Primal Carnage to be used as a profile pic.
So unless there's something about you that makes you extremely controversial or unlikeable most (note most, not all) copyright holders are going to be quite happy for you effectively to advertise their product.
Commercial use is a no-no, if you're a blatant paedophile or Nazi most companies won't like you using their material, but for profile pics if you're an Ordinary Decent Citizen most (again most, not all) copyright holders are quite happy for you to display your allegiance.
S.x.
I've seen too many pieces of artwork stolen from tumblr and deviantart that were made by friends that get posted here, to lots of 'likes' and 'wow that is so awesome you're so good'.
they didn't draw the image, and have zero right to put it here. :/
I mean, if anything, just *ask first*. If you find the artist they'd probably be willing to talk to you about it, but if you can't get ahold of them, that's another "don't do it".
You can absolutely upload YOUR OWN ARTWORK, as long as it follows the other restrictions (pg13, no hate, etc). I'd strongly suggest also, watermarking your work because people just... steal stuff. :/
no, it seriously is not.
Even supposed vaporware is still held by someone's rights. Unless you can prove that you've looked and attempted to locate the original owners and found nothing, it's still protected.
