All you need to know about publishing pictures.
- Consider the law when publishing pictures (very important)
Obscene material will not be permitted.
Definition of "obscene" - in a nutshell, it's pictures showing extreme humiliation, children, animal sex, torture, or turd play.
>> Read the obscene publications act for a more formal description.
- Consider the national & international copyright laws when publish
pictures. (this affects Aussies too)
Almost every photo on the Internet, in magazines or papers, or on TV/movies/DVDs are protected by copyright law.
If you use pictures obtained from the Internet, or scanned from magazines, papers, TV, DVD or other sources, you are breaking the law.
Only attach pictures of yourself or photos that you have shot yourself.
- Permission Issues - why have the rule "pictures must feature
you" ?
If your picture features someone else and they haven't given their
permission for you to publish the image, then that person has the right to
sue you. We are required by law to pass your details to the police if
they request it, so don't rely on us to protect you if you do naughty stuff
like that.
If you are female, male, or a transgendered
subscriber, these points apply to you...
- Photos must not show anyone else's face except your own.
- You may show yourself posing on your own clothed or naked, and you may publish photos of yourself in a sexual act with another person (or people) - but remember the rules: (1) no obscene material, (2) no using other people's work, and (3) no faces of other people.
- Photos that do not feature you at all (even if it doesn't show their face) will not be permitted.
If you are a couple or a group subscriber, these points
apply to you...
- Photos must only be of you and your partner/group. You must be able to provide consent to the publication
of this material in writing (signed and dated by all who feature in your photos) if it is requested by the site administrators.
