This is just my humble opinion but if this site is ever to be cleaned up as it seems a lot want it too then there should be no "friends only" or "members only" pictures each and every picture should be made available for all to scrutinize and decide which is and which is not appropriate for the site. That only seems fair. As well as anyone who starts a group should at least have a profile picture certainly not leaving it blank. By having no picture of the groups creator how are we to know if it's legitimate or not. What does everyone htink ?? Gary (mallardm45)

Ok I concede with your opinion being new to the site I guess I still have a lot to learn. I'm just trying to figure things out in regard to a textile life and I suppose there are plenty of folk there who would not post a pictures as well. Give me time I will learn the differences between textile and nudist.

KohaanMay 6, 2016How about... picture availability to certified members only? ... Of course, you don't have to show your certification picture at any time, unless you want to show it. ... As it is now,manypicture are open to viewing for anyone on the internet, you don't even need to have a profile... just click on any tab, except chat, on the home ... log-in ... page. ... I agree that group creators should have a full profile, with a clear picture... and if the creator wants to quit the group, a new admin should be found, first. ...Or at least make a public announcement, before leaving.ReactReply - GI
GilanJul 31, 2016I couldnt disagree with you more. If someone wants their pictures private then they should have that respect.ReactReply - SHShouldOrNotSep 20, 2016
Friends only should be allowed, but WHY UPLOAD THE PICTURES OF YOU DON'T WANT ANYONE TO SEE THEM!
ReactReply - MEMemberOct 5, 2016[quote]Friends only should be allowed, but WHY UPLOAD THE PICTURES OF YOU DON'T WANT ANYONE TO SEE THEM![/quote] Because even with nudism, consent still matters. My pictures are friends only, except for my main. Why? Because I don't need additional drama in my life. I upload pictures because I want my friends here to see them, not for it to get to my employer, nor for me to end up Tumblr famous. That being said, something about paying to see galleries feels.... Off putting.ReactReply

[/quote] That's not very welcoming, especially of people exploring their inner nudism. Everyone does things at their own pace, just because you're at the finish line doesn't mean you get to shut out everyone else still in the race.ReactReply - DO
DocOct 18, 2016I disagree. People have many reasons for keeping their photos private. Or at least having some control over who sees them. That being said...you claim that all the photos should be for all to see YET your photos are for friends only. If you truly believe that then yours would be open to all.ReactReply - SW

GSNPhilOct 25, 2016[quote]I'd rather just ban camming. :-)[/quote]I'd vote for that. I've never really seen the point of having that capability on a nudist site. By the way, what IS the big deal about camming? Especially since there are so many other ways to cam besides joining a nudist site.ReactReply - PA
PaulDec 13, 2016The thing is over having photos for friends only you could have people wanting to be your friend just to be able to see your photos marked for friends only.
OT I see that people have been also saying about people starting groups who have no photos but on this today I have found a mod on one of the groups who is using a profile photo which can be found on the net which makes me think she? is fake.
ReactReply - MEMemberDec 22, 2016
many reasons why people keeping their pictures private. Imagine like in facebook, some people are setting their pictures on private, so only friends can see it.
Not many place (country) are very welcoming with nudist lifestyle, thats the other reason why people (or me) keeping my pictures private. But some my pictures are openly public too, its depends.ReactReply - SUsunnmaxxMar 2, 2018
Some of us still have to work so I will share pics with friends that I don't want public.
ReactReply - PAPaulMar 3, 2018
Remember if you don't like what someone has put about your photo you have on your profile de friend them as if they aren't your friend they can't post any comments and remove the ones s/he has put there.

Each member should be able to control which pictures they want open to everyone or private. Each member should be allowed to decide for themselves if they want their pictures seen. There are several groups I would join but they require full frontal nude pictures for public view and that doesn't seem reasonable to me but that is my preference. Groups, of course, can have rules that say you must have full nude photos to join so then the individual will have to decide if they want to join or not. Now that is fair I suppose.

here is a question for anyone
If you are in a PM chat with someone in the chat room does that give them the ability to look at all your photos even if they are not a friend???

EarlDJan 19, 2022[quote]As a fully paid up, certified and lifetime member of this site, I reserve the right to choose who sees my photos. No matter what rules you impose, there will still be scammers and perverts who get through by using other people's photos. All you can do is block these profiles or report them. The majority of people here seem to be nice and genuine so I'm not going to let a few idiots spoil it for me.[/quote] In total agreement. Never understand why some people think they should dictate how other share or dont share their pictures. As you say it is perfectly ok if you want to avoid the creeps that you block those who are not aligned with your view.ReactReply - MEMemberJan 27, 2022[quote]This is just my humble opinion but if this site is ever to be cleaned up as it seems a lot want it too then there should be no "friends only" or "members only" pictures each and every picture should be made available for all to scrutinize and decide which is and which is not appropriate for the site.

JTFeb 7, 2022My pics are open, I am not ashamed of who sees me completely naked. Nature and nature's God bring us into the world nude, and clothing should be worn for personal protection and comfort (i.e. if you are cold) but not to cover ourselves out of shame of our bodies or certain body parts.
