Question. Art being treated differently in many cases, is it acceptable to modify these images to better fit the web-site, or whatever, they are destined for?
For example, is there a problem if I take one of the animated GIFs and extract a single image from it?
I know that these animated ad images are all the craze now-a-days. However, I'm from a simpler time when pages just sat there and let you look at them, and I would prefer this behavior on my site.
I'm asking specifically for the "The Dresden Files Role Playing Game" image in the "Whats-Your-Story" GIFs, cause I want to take that image, add some transparency to the outlining border, and use it as the header of a page, instead of the simple text "The Dresden Files RPG" that I have now.
