Sorry if this has been addressed somewhere already, but I wanted to seek some clarity in light of today's update—

For avatars and forum banners that rotate between images at random (from sites like grumpybumpers), how can/should we match each image to the source? Since it's random, I don't think there's a way to list everything out in a certain order. Would an image description (either small or hover text over the credit) suffice for clear credit?

Thanks in advance, and let me know if I need to clarify my question in any way. <3

For rotating banners, you may credit them all as one. Ideally you would link to your pawprints with credits to each individual piece of artwork.
