I have a whole load of naturist photos of myself that I'd like to make freely available on the Internet. I haven't got my own website; I did try to set one up a few months ago and found it too complicated. Facebook has a "no nudity" policy. Flickr demands that you have a Flickr account and set SafeSearch off in order to view naked material. And many other websites require people to sign up or pay money to access their photo galleries. Any ideas?
You can get Media Membership on here - or for a wider audience maybe Tumblr - I have all my photos on both
[admin]Actually, we try very hard to make sure that any member's photographs in the Media Centre aren't "freely available on the internet". :D [/admin]
Annie and I certainly very much appreciate the efforts made by the NC administrators to make sure that photos posted in the Media Centre are NOT available to everyone on the net.

I appreciate all you do - I was simply saying if you wanted a wider audience Tumblr has no restrictions 😃
You can still get a free Flickr account with a very large upload limit.
You only need to pay if you want the unlimited space option.
JOhn

Not sure why Flickr is not the best option? It can be linked easily and you can have them easily found? Why is safesearch off an issue? Many naturists share on Flickr because it is easy, almost unlimited storage and is a nice portal!
Play nice...... Play Naked!
A quick summary of Flickr Safesearch for naturist beginners:
Safesearch on = only "Disney Safe" content can be viewed.
Safesearch Moderate = You can also see bare breasts and bottoms but nothing more.
Safesearch Off = you can see everything and some people use this facility to post pornographic pictures.
Yahoo and Flickr being US based we have to put up with this categorisation, which seems totally wrong to me as I think proper naturist nudes should not be in the same category as porn, but we can't do anything about that.
You need to categorise all the pictures you post to Flickr as Safe, Moderate or Restricted, corresponding to the three safesearch categories outlined above.
Almost all nudity is classed as restricted (see above).
For naturists who upload pictures it is best to set your default upload options to "Private" and "Restricted" and use the editing functions on Flickr to change the settings on individual pictures as appropriate.
If you upload them as safe and public (Flickr's defaults) it is always possible that one of the millions of prudes looking at Flickr will report you to the Flickr moderators in the few seconds before you correctly classify them. People have had their Flickr and Yahoo accounts deleted in such circumstances.
That is what I do after having had a warning from Flickr's moderators on one occasion.
The techniques which I use to include pictures on Flickr in NC posts work OK regardless of the Flickr setting on the picture.
That's all I can think of at the moment but if you have any other problems or hang-ups please feel free to ask, either publicly or privately.
Edited to add:
If you are worried about your family members accessing the pornographic restricted pictures you can set safesearch on and still upload pictures set to restricted.
Safesearch does not operate on your own pictures so you can still see all your own restricted naturist pictures with Safesearch set on.

My problem with Media is the photos required, I have no trouble with the nudes, but I dont have one of the two of us clothed and together since our wedding back in 78.
canoesailor get a wee selfie stick like we have done recently as we had the problem of trying to take photos of us together while trying to work out the timer and angles etc we got the pictures but find it fun with the selfie stick
sorry for going off topic
john
Thanks but I don't relish trying to balance my 7d and lens on the end of the selfie stick. I do have a remote control, tripod etc. and when we have the time I'll have to set up a picture. Trouble is we have to get dressed to do the clothed shot:o)

couldnt you use photo shop to add clothes it would save the hassle and expense in buying and putting on clothes. Lol
[gmod]We've drifted a little off-topic here, can we bring it back to the OPs question please.[/gmod]
Not sure what the problem is!
This site allows you to upload pictures, there is Twitter which is of for nudism or join Naktiv.
Not sure if I am missing the point!
Thanks to everyone who replied to my post. I will look further at Flickr options and also at Tumblr.
Note to Admininstrators: Just to clarify, I am only looking to make nude photographs of _myself_ freely available to the public. Naturally I respect the confidentiality and conditions of Naturist Corner, and I would not make public nude photographs of anybody else.
[admin]No problem, we didn't think you would :D[/admin]
