Noticed some changes that concerning whether intentional or not.
1. Photos uploaded in the main chat can now be downloaded using right click on your computer. Dont visit chat often so this may not be new but it seems to be a great way to attract the wrong kind of person to use the chat.
2. The sites news feed displays every new registration, every certification, and every photo uploaded in a public newsfeed that can be viewed and downloaded by anyone on the internet. Great for promoting the site but not good for anyone want to explore the site or nudism while maintaining some privacy.
Personally wont be uploading any more photos to the site. Dont see the point of being able to set permission on the site to private if they are publicly available on the net.

New version generally a regression in functionality on the old version, group management especially compromised

Any photo you upload to the internet can be copied. The right click "download" just makes an already easy process easier. You should also know any media you upload to the gallery, your profile, a group, or to the forum will stay on the media server forever. When you delete it, all you are deleting is the link to the photo. The photo stays on the server.ReactReply - EAEarlDOriginal PosterFeb 26, 2024[quote] You should also know any media you upload to the gallery, your profile, a group, or to the forum will stay on the media server forever.

BlueBoy2022Feb 27, 2024I have noticed two major errors with the display of photos in everyone's "friends" gallery. The first problem is that the list of friends is no longer in alphabetical order, but rather chronological order. That makes it very difficult to find IF a particular person is already a friend, and where that person's profile page might be on the entire list.
The second problem is related. When viewing the photos on anyone'd page, some photos are displayed in a distorted view (wider), while others are display with the proper perspective. I have been, so far, unable to discover why the distorted one's are distorted, but others are not. This is a real sinister problem that will likely be a very difficult one to fix.

I forgot to mention that listing friends in alphabetical order makes it easier to find individuals you may have added duplicate times by mistake, a situation I have found that many of your members SHOULD take advantage of. Changing the sort order to chronological would eliminate that benefit and would likely INCREASE the number of duplicates listed in "friend" groups, thereby artificially inflating the size of "friends" listings.
Not a good outcome, and your storage and problems managing members data will explode exponentially.ReactReply - MA
MarcusFeb 28, 2024I think the biggest problem is that uploaded photos can be seen by everyone even if the photos are switched to for friends only This is not correct. In the EU a user has to be explicitly asked if he wants his photo in public. If they switch it public, their problem, if they switch it to friends only then it should be seen only by the friends of the user.

I should also add on the media server (now called "cloud"), you don't even have to be logged on to access the photos/videos. You can't easily browse the server, but a dedicated programmer could write a script to easily crawl the site and capture what's there.

I confirm. All new photos uploaded to the website are visible to guests, regardless of the permissions set. This website does not guarantee the security of uploaded photos or videos. Hiding a user's profile does nothing.

It is actually amazing how much of the membership profile is open to the internet. Any group I joined all the people I friend, locations, media blogs everything is available to anyone on the net. The privacy on the site is seriously lacking. That may be why so few of the new members are people genuinely exploring nudism. If I was newbie just trying it out I might not way to have everything exposed.

Follow-up to the privacy level on the site related to the feed. The privacy setting for the feed can be set under the privacy tab in account settings. Currently testing to see if it actually works.
