that image is used everywhere...no one is claiming it as their own....

See my reply. Whether or not you are claiming it the NBA disallows people using their logos / content without their express written permission.

It's clearly not a logo available for use, and I recommend you find something else.

Threads aren't deleted here, but I'll tag Tumbleweed to lock this thread. (:

EDIT: I guess it's a good thing I quoted you since you took it upon yourself to delete your posts.

I don't actually. I'm stating a fact that threads aren't deleted here. Feel free to consult with any staff and report my behaviour if you find it unacceptable.

Just want to confirm, rassy , that Kami is correct that we don't delete threads unless they break TOS or are spam. And we clearly have rules to not delete your posts even if the topic has been resolved or you think it was a poor thread, which it wasn't and in fact may be helpful to others.

The only time it might be acceptable to delete a post or thread is if no one has posted in it and it is is like 5 seconds later. Wait any longer and someone may be already on the task of helping you. A better option would be to just post in the thread that this is no longer needed and edit your first post subject line to say the same. But anyway, just wanted to confirm Kami's comments regarding the rules. I will mark this as resolved.
