Default footer question

In my stylevar I had edited the size of the footer to show footer in the font size to 1px
Is this acceptable? or is there an issue with doing so?

I'm lost as to why you would want to do this... not sure if I understand correctly enough to reply...

So you changed the font size of links in the footer to 1px? Was this to hide the text/links (surely not to hide the copyright...) or something else?

Would say to help minimize clutter, My question would be since the font is so small, and it cannot be read, is this a copyright issue?
The way in which you responded to this answers my question tho Just brain storming styling ideas for my new style.

Thank you

Hmm... I would think that 1px copyright font would not be allowable... I know you can replace the copyright w/ a image stating the same thing i.e. Copyright of vBulletin.

I mean it was a slick idea lol but common sense says we shouldn't try to be that slick and sly kwim? If you want to inquire on vBulletin.com and receive a official reply that might be best as I could be wrong here but imo making it too small to see says "I'm too cheap to pay for branding free" or "I don't feel I should have to pay" either way it's not something that should normally be allowed even if you can adjust the size of the font... same thing for colors... you can have a white background and change the footer text and links to white... still the same thing imo.
