Anyone else noticed that photobucket are getting even tetchier about hosting book covers that contain even a hint of nudity? The policy before was strictly no nipples, but now evidently it's been amended to " .... or naked flesh whatsoever." Logged into my account with them tonight to find the dreaded "This image or video violated our terms of use" warning slapped across not only the scan of the relatively innocuous Vampirella: Deadwalk back cover, but the admittedly fruitier items from the Dennis Wheatley's Library Of The Occult series like The King And The Witch (how Bob Rothwell would've loved that!) , although WordPress don't seem to have a problem with any of them.

Photobucket should be renamed PhotoPurietan I uploaded four saucy but tame pictures one of which had a naked backside on it and two days later I got this nazi type picture telling me that the photo had been removed due to violation of the rules!!! They also had an issue with people posting pictures of thier own kids without clothes on...I mean babies just as they naturely are. Photobucket took issue with this and put an embargo on these pictures because they thought it could segway into child porn. I swear the owners of this site must stay up all night with a branch of birch slap there buttocks everytime they think of a human without clothes on.

There's a campaigning in Germany against photofuckit I think. Recently they started rejecting pictures of nursing mothers. The German psyche is very much into mothers, photos, families and naturaism and they find it utterly laughable that pictures of a mother with a child at her breast should be censored. I find it laughable too.

I found it laughable that a photo lab employee reported a person who put a photo of herself, nursing her baby to be developed, and she was investigated due to alegations of "child pornography".....
Okay, how is nursing in any way pornographic or related to pedophilia or abuse?

Is this still a problem? I mean posting "naughty" covers?
If it is, and it's a problem for this site, then let me know. I might well have a solution.

And yet they host this picture of a tattooed lady gleefully shoving cheeseburgers up a turkey's arse without a qualm. Weird.
