  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    In the thread title, you rightly ask for some relevant info (name, event, date, short description). But an important item seems to be missing, or at least not necessarily/conveniently included, and that is the amount of nudity of the celeb.

    For many collectors, a fully dressed celeb pic is easy to find in large quantities on the net and has no real rarity, disclosure or, if you like, “excitation” value.

    For this reason, other celebs boards include an obligatory icon on the left of the thread title which immediately and sufficiently describes the amount of nudity in 4 degrees ranging from no nudity, bikini, see-thru and full nudity.

    I therefore suggest that the admins give serious consideration to introducing such an icon, which would add much value and descriptiveness to a thread title. Further, it will save on bandwidth, as many members won’t keep clicking on all threads. It will also help in image searching for analogous reasons.

    Most threads will have, topless, topless but covered, nude or bikini and such other title tags.
    Are most of the users on phun here simply to look in on the off chance that a celeb may be nude? I always though that it was about hot celebrities, not whether or not they were nude.

    Agree completely. If someone is posting pics that have a celeb topless, or there's an upskirt, bikini shots etc they'll usually label it that way. Most people recognise it's important to do that much and we don't expect anymore than that. It's part of the rules as well to properly describe a title, but we don't see the need for an icon to label nudeness, as there aren't many threads that have it to be honest. Remember that Playboy is banned, so the percentage of threads with a lot of skin would be low compared to general shoots/candids.

    Can't you just click on a thread and see for yourself if there are nude pics? It can't take that much time. I DO think that if somebody adds Tight Jeans in the thread title and there isn't an ass shot they should be banned ;)

    Don't see the point really. If it where a specific celeb website I'd say yes but celebrity is only a % of Phun. There is nudity all over Phun (thank god) and I would say it should be viewed as over 18 regardless of icons.

    Do adults want to be protected so or is your suggestion to help minors?

    Anyways positive input has to be welcomed but for me it is a no

    It's like seeing an Eliza Dushku thread and saying, "She's hot, but i'm not going to click on it as she's not naked"

    You either like the girl or not.
