Create a Prim's Terms of Service
By signing up for a free account at Create a Prim, you gain access to special areas of the forum, your own area in our gallery, the ability to comment, participate, and upload photos, exclusive offers, coupons and more! Membership is absolutely 100% FREE! All we ask in return is that you follow the rules and respect your fellow neighbors. By signing up for an account you agree that you have read, understood, and will follow the Terms of Service. These rules and terms may be modified from time, and such modification shall be deemed binding when posted anywhere on the Create a Prim site. Failure to follow these rules will result in disciplinary action against you or your account. Please note, for access to all parts of our site, you will have to register twice: once for our forum and gallery, and once for our shopping center. A separate account is required for our shopping center for security.

Posting Rules:

1. Competing Businesses: Please respect our website and don't post links to other craft supply sites, pattern sites, fabric sites, or other competing sites. (Links and content of this nature should only be shared via email or Private Message). Occasionally linking to your personal website of finished crafts within a post is fine.

2. Signatures & Advertising: For the benefit of our neighbors with slower connections, only ONE signature image is allowed in signatures. *NO ad banners are allowed. If you would like to advertise on our website, please visit our advertising page. Occasionally linking to your personal website of finished crafts is fine. We do have an option to add your website to your profile. This will create a WWW button link at the bottom of each of your posts; so including a link to your site within your signature is not necessary. *Please note: creating a signature and website link can only be done if you have 10 or more posts.

If you are linking to your website within our forum, please return the link by using one of our banners, buttons, or text links on your website. They can be found in our "Link To Us" page.

3. Image Hosting: Our gallery shall not be used as your personal image host. For example, you may not upload graphics or the like to be linked to from eBay auction templates, etc. You may only upload photos of finished crafts, swaps, home photos (or any photo relating to an existing category) for use of sharing your images.

4. Posting In Categories: Please post messages in their related forums; and images in their most related category. Do not post the same message or photo in two separate forums/categories.

5. Copyrighted Material: Content uploaded to Create a Prim by you may only be of your creation. Do not post or upload materials whose copyright is owned by someone other than you. Works considered in the public domain may be uploaded.

6. Be courteous: Do not post defamatory or insulting comments, either directly or indirectly, about any user at Create a Prim (or any company, which can lead to lawsuits). This includes any place on the site, including, but not limited to forum posts, gallery posts, product reviews, and private messages. You are expected to treat others with respect no matter if you like or dislike someone and their views.

7. Inappropriate Content: Hate language, sexually explicit pictures and language, discriminatory language, provoking language, profanity, or inappropriate content of any kind is prohibited. (This includes any place on the site, including, but not limited to posts on the forum, private messages, product reviews, signatures, avatars, gallery posts, and images uploaded to the gallery.) This is a family friendly website.

8. Politics & Religion: Please refrain from heated debates on topics such as politics or religion. Everyone has their own opinion on the subjects, and these discussions usually lead to hurt feelings.

9. Disputes: All disputes between neighbors should be handled by Private Message (PM) or email and not on the Create a Prim message boards.
