Links to NSFW pics in my cruise thread.

Post by Brian »

Before my provider yanked the page because I went over my daily bandwidth limit I had placed a select few NSFW pictures on my site in addition to the SFW ones I actually posted in that thread. I have had a couple of requests from folks who would like to see them and was wondering what the opinion was of the mods/admins if I was to make links to these pictures available in the thread.

Thoughts? Opinions? Please for the love of God don't make these available?

I am , of course, not a mod, but it's difficult to conceive how anyone could find their way to said pics without knowing exactly what they were getting into. I assume you're not posting any hard-core porn or anything, so I can't imagine it would cause a problem.

But I stand ready to be corrected.

No, no porn. Just pics of me, the wife, and other passengers that were on the cruise with us.

This isn't official policy (I don't think) but if they are R-rated or less and they are links and not actual images in the thread, and the links are labeled NSFW, I don't see a problem with it.

Ok, I think what I'll do is ZIP them up and link to them.

Picasa? Photobucket?

Sorry about the delayed response.

My feeling is that as long as the linked photos are not X rated or excessively explicit, linking with clear labels is adequate.
