Hello everyone, growing up football has always been and will forever be an unavoidable part of life. Funny enough it is one aspect of my life that my dad has always had problems with because he says I spend most leisure times of mine either watching football matches or playing football.

POST I INTEND TO CREATE

As part of my contribution to this community as a member and a football lover, I will be posting about matchday results, match previews and transfer news and rumours.

CONTENT ETIQUETTE

Content etiquette has to do with making sure that whatever that you post should be your own work and images used should be properly cited if they are not yours. They are the rules and regulations that one must follow in creating a post.

PLAGIARISM

Plagiarism to my understanding is using someone else's work or idea as your original work without the persons consent or permission. It is so important that you properly cite if the work is or idea is from another source.

COPY RIGHT ABUSE

Copyright abuse is using a copyright law protected work of someone without their permission. This involves videos, music, pictures etc

COPYRIGHT-FREE IMAGES

You can find a copyright-free image on pixabay https://pixabay.com/ or creative commons https://creativecommons.org/

HOW TO PROPERLY CITE AN IMAGE

To be able to search for and use a copyright-free image, open your browser and search for the specific image you want. For example, if I want to use a copyright-free image of Paul Pogba. First and foremost, type Paul Pogba in the search box to display his details. Now click on images to display his images, from the displayed images locate and choose tools and click on usage rights. Then finally select creative commons licences to display copyright-free images of Pogba.

CONCLUSION

I hope the community heads will validate me so I can officially become a member of this great steemit community @njaywan. I want to thank the world of football for this great opportunity. To sum it all up, "I am well aware of the rules of this community as well as the norms of steemit and will abide by them at all times".
