I spotted nice animated gif at forum site. It was used as avatar - probably copied without authors permission.
I would like to use this gif as a part of my banner, however I dont know how to find an author of that picture.
Any ideas?
The picture in question is a happily walking guy, he is 3D, round, withouth face or any details, and he is all orange.

Try a Google image search... if you can find other locations using the image, you might be able to hunt down which site is the author.

OTOH, you might find it's part of a royalty free web image collection, in which case you'd legally need to buy the image/collection to get the rights to use it.

Hi, thanks for reply.
I dont think it is nickelodeon guy, however I couldn find any pictures of him.
I tried G image search (as well as ATW) however I couldnt find it.
I am looking for the author or copyright holder to be able to use it legally. So probably I will need to pay for it.
