Image Rules
We have only a few rules for images. We've attempted to keep them as objective as possible, even though they represent our subjective decision on what we allow.
- Nothing illegal. This blanket rule covers all obscene material (as opposed to the legally-allowed indecent art) as well as anything that would be considered illegal such as underage pornography and other legally-prohibited material. We have a zero-tolerance policy on illegal material. It will be removed and the authorities notified.
- No nudity or adult content. While The Rocky Horror Picture Show is an "R" rated movie, this site is not. No nudity or adult content is allowed. Failure to abide by this rule will result in the removal of content and then the removal of the user account if this rule cannot be followed. That said, we do not wish to censor speech, so profanity will be allowed on a case-by-case basis. In this, the decision of the site's moderators and/or administration is final.
- Nothing that we have to make a new rule about. This is the way that we let you know that we're not omniscient. Even though we have only three basic rules, above, we're quite sure that someone will, eventually, do something that makes us say, "Yeah, we need a rule for that." This rule means that when we make that rule, we will likely remove the content in the process. Let's hope we rarely, if ever, have to invoke rule #3.
