If you're going to start another one up, you should only use new pictures of members who willingly submit them and NOT use the old pictures of players who are no longer here and do not give their consent for their photo to be used. Not a big deal but seems ethical, in my opinion.
Originally posted by PonderableI'm not sure who his acquaintances were on here. Looks like he has left the site and it might be hard contacting him. If you want the photos preserving, might be an idea to swipe the photos from the website as they might not be there forever.
Maybe this thread should be sticky...
Does anybody know if Gatecrasher will continue to host that page, or if there is any way to preserve it if not?
As for having a new RHP faces page, it wouldn't be too hard. All it needs is a wix account or blog or something setting up. Either that or we could ask the RHP Facebook page admin to grant permission to upload all photos to there.

Originally posted by Sicilian SausageMaybe they don't want their picture used anymore? I'm not looking at it from a legal standpoint, more a polite and friendly standpoint. Plus, what use are those old pictures anyway? 95% of those players aren't here anymore or at least do not post in the forums.

Originally posted by darvlayYeah you do have a point. Most of them would be irrelevant now.

Yes I used to be a stunner.
I thought you were long gone from here.
In my opinion, they're all part of the RHP community ragardless of whether they are still active or not. It doesn't make any difference. They helped to make this site what it is today and so are part of the RHP family.
As far as permission, they did provide those pictures voluntarily already or they would not be on that old website. I would expect if a new site for pictures is created and someone at any time asks that their picture be removed, the picture would be removed.
But as I said, that's just my opinion.

Well said.
Originally posted by Sicilian SausageI have no idea who the facebook admin is, but suspect that it is Russ.

The simplest way is for each person who wants to share a photo of themself to upload it to their profile page, and there it is to see. The option is already in place so nothing further needs to be done. Just make sure the dimensions and size are in accordance with the existing limits.
