user icons question

Having now done the basic "what is an icon and how to install one" FAQs, I'm now heading into territory where I need some kind of official (officious) response to a content question.

In fond recollection of "Nipplegate", is there any content that's flat out verboten on DW for icon purposes?

The only content restriction is stuff that's illegal under US law. So actual child pornography (like, a naked seven-year-old in a sexual context or whatever) is out. Other than that, nope!

Just to clarify: there's no content restriction on the DEFAULT icon, right?

Correct -- anything that's good for use in any icon is good for use in the default icon.

thank you for clarifying the position on what is (and what is not appropriate) for icons and default icons.

:)
