  I would suggest that you recheck that information, ensuring that you have loged out from the site and cleared the web cache.  You will then get a true picture of what an ousider would get on a web search: Just the profile photo (unless you have it set to TN certified or private only), and the profile information.

  Thanks for your reply.

  Everyone is responsible for his own profile. However friends have a big impact on search results.

  I see no privacy problem. If people want privacy, then don't join this or any other site.  Problem solved.

  Non members can browse all members here and see profile photos in searches including hidden photos on locked profiles. Other sites you have to at least be a member to access the site.

  [quote] including hidden photos on locked profiles. [/quote]   That part is NOT true ! BUT, if you were logged in, and did not clear your cache, ( on many browsers, Internet Exploder especially, by completely closing and exiting the browser ) then your cache or login cookie may lead you to believe that. It's merely a failing of your browser.

  [quote][quote]Non members can browse all members here and see profile photos in searches including hidden photos on locked profiles.[/quote]   If a profile photo is set to restricted access, what non-members see when looking at profile pages is shown in post #3, and member albums are not accessible to non-members. However, a non-member can use the "Nudists" link in the top menu bar to browse the membership, and all profile photos are shown in thumbnail form. This is a screen grab (edited for Photobucket) from that listing, from a browser that was not logged in.The limitations on profile photos do not apply to thumbnails such as the Nudists and Friends listings, nor to avatars. To that extent, post #8 is correct.[/quote] Thank you for confirming what I said

  These "privacy" threads always kind of make me wonder. Most of the people who show concern, would think nothing about going to a nude beach, where they are exposed to people who are there to take pics of people to post on the Internet. Most of the time, these nude beaches are within driving distance of their homes. Further increasing the chances that someone they know would see them. Yet 4 or 5 pics posted on the vastness of the Internet has them in a paranoid tizzy. Even a resort where pics are not necessarily an issue, has far more potential for exposure, simply because it is generally close to home. While you may say people at a resort would be no problem, because they're nudists too, it doesn't really work that way because the information is out there locally.

  For instance, let's say someone you know sees you at a resort. They have a circle of friends that know they are nudists and they think nothing of discussing their trips to their friends. They tell them all about how they were suprised to see "Tom and Mary" at the resort last weekend. They had no idea they were nudists too! Now the information that you are a nudist is publically floating around your hometown!

  Both of these scenarios are FAR MORE LIKELY than someone you know stumbling upon your TN info. Unless, of course, there are people stalking you and spending hours of their lives trying destroy you. In which case, your problems are greater than someone finding out you're a nudist.

  [quote]For me its not about that people know that im a nudist. Just dont want that my naked pics are everywhere on the internet.[/quote]   but yet you join a group on facebook about facebook nudists.  Thus, exposing the possibilities of spreading the word about you and giving even more people, unrealated to this site, a reason to search for info about you.  Reduce the risk, lower the exposure, and don't make the exposure more widespread with multiple topic related sites/pages.

  There's only one way to absolutely ensure privacy: Find a cave and live there without electricity. Sorry people, but this is 2011. We no longer spread rumours, bad jokes and occasionally useful information through word of mouth, but by Facebook status and forums like this one. In a sense, the virtual world is every bit as real as the real one. If the medium is the message, then ...

  Anybody who puts personal info or compromising photos on facebook and expects it to be private is a FOOL.
