Hhmm, that's a good point. Maybe there should be a way to have website admins of a certain level, have inkscape.org email address? Just a thought.
Or.....well I'm a little curious why you would contact them and ask them to remove it, vs just removing it. As a forum admin, I don't ask spammers to remove their spam. I just ban them and delete their message. And I don't think that's being heavy handed, as far as spamming is concerned. Is it because we don't have an easy delete button yet?

Hi Brynn,
thanks for noticing. I'll write to the user and ask him to remove the advertising. Keep an eye on it and remind me if it's still there in a week or so.
(and I wish there were a way to *not* use my own mail address for this kind of thing - it doesn't look 'official', I don't want spam, and I wouldn't mind sharing this kind of mails with others in a more official kind of way (I'll be CC'ing Martin), without disclosing the recipient's mail address on a mailing list...)
Regards, Maren

Hi Friends, I saw a relatively new image in the gallery, which seems to be there for the purpose of advertising, and nothing else. It's not an image made with Inkscape, or even vector-related. https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/item/5691/ It seems to be only for the purpose of advertising tagxedo and tagxedo.com. Should be allowed? I realize there could be much worse abuses (and there have been, already), but I'm curious how the Inkscape community sees this. Thanks for discussion :-)
All best, brynn
