What you've said is correct Leon although it's very difficult at times to judge how the person will react.
Matt's correct in stating that people who are looking for advice should state it in their post.
I've seen people on many forums get very offended at others when receiving good advice or have their image corrected for the better.
Unless I know the person or how they'll take the advice, I'll err on the side of caution and not offer any constructive criticism/alteration or advice and if I do then am always willing to help or show the person what to do.

Personally I don't mind if people offer advice or play with an image, but that's just me.
It is polite though to ask permission before altering someone's image.

In one forum I belong to, they solve this by offering members the option when they sign up to choose whether other members can alter their images by stating "Image editing OK" in their Bio (see attached image).
