Chatroom Etiquette
► Dave requests that viewers do not post links to other shows, blogs, images or websites during the broadcast. Permission to do so is given at the discretion of Dave.
► Dave requests that we keep topics and vocabulary appropriate for all ages, out of respect for various sensitivities.
► Dave requests that viewers think twice before making public personal assessments of the features or appearance of the models or subjects being painted. In most cases, the subjects have been invited to watch, and may simply choose not to participate in the chat. Assume they are reading your comments.
► Dave requests that you do not make suggestions about how he can paint better. Dave knows what he is doing, and if you are patient, he will prove it.
► Dave wants you to know that under no circumstances are you given permission to download or use his own reference materials for your own personal work, and that under no circumstances should you ever post or publish, anywhere, paintings of Dave's subjects.
