Re: The Viper Club of America is Very Pleased to Announce
The current Avatar rules regarding site sponsors permit the use of the term "Site Sponsor" within the sponsor's avatar. However, there is an ambiguity as shown below. The policies are as follows. The language concerning "corporate entity or business" appears to have been meant for a non member and non site sponsor. I recommend that the language be edited a little. Since the VPA is a wholly owned subsidiary of the VCA I would say that its use of the avatar being used is well within the current avatar policy.
Best,
