avatars This is a good way to
promote GNU and free software in general general, and to show others that you are pro-freedom.</p>
pro-freedom. The first seven avatars were made by Joakim, and the last
one by Diego.</p>

<p>Avatar submissions are welcome and encouraged. Our policy for avatars is 
  that Your avatar should
fulfill all of these are true:</p> conditions:</p>

  <ol>
    <li>It is small like a normal avatar.</li> the proper size for an avatar (typically, 100x100).</li>
    <li>It has something to do with GNU or free software in general.</li>
    <li>It has no copyright problems.</li>
    <li>It is not libelous.</li>
    <li>It won't offend most ordinary hackers more than is
    reasonable in humor.</li>
  </ol>

<p>We would like the avatars to say "www.gnu.org" “www.gnu.org” or "gnu.org"
“gnu.org” so that more people will find out about GNU and free
software in general.</p>
