Posting Nudity Posting of nudity as thumbnails, or as links without warnings will result in a warning. You don't get a first chance to make this mistake. In regards to Playboy, we ask that for the most part you do not post anything from this magazine as it is considered pornography (which the posting of is against the ru…

Any embedded images over 1050 pixels in width must be either manually resized or thumbnailed. Although oversized images do resize automatically, but before it does that it must load/process fully and then condense. The larger the image, the longer it takes our system to process and resize. 1050 pixels is a reasonable size for our system to process efficiently. And remember, not every member has a fast connection or a fast computer. Here is an example of an image that is 1050 pixels in width: Please note the staff strongly encourage members to thumbnail their images whenever possible. If you do thumbnail or post small images side by side, please do not exceed 600 pixel…

It looks like this: [img=VS Image URL]There are many free image-hosting sites on the web. Here is a sh…

Help Cut Back on Reposts Lately there have been a lot of reposts on this board. By all means, this board is full of hundreds of thousands of images, and reposts are inevitable. However, there are little things we can all do to help cut back on the vast amounts of reposts that not only disrupt the archival flow of a thread but also (and more importantly) take up bandwidth and cost us more money. 1. Try checking the last 5 pages before posting images. Reposts that occur on the same page (yes this has happened) or even within a couple of pages of each other are frustrating and unnecessary. Checking at least five pages back before posting can help in this respect immensely. 2…
