Rules & takedowns

What gets posted

Nothing posts automatically. Every submission lands in a review queue and a human decides. Most things that get rejected are rejected quietly.

Hard rules

Getting something taken down

There is a Report button on every photo on the wall. It goes straight to the reviewer and does not require an account, an email address or an explanation.

If a photo of you was posted without your permission, use that button and say so. It comes down — you do not have to prove anything first and you will not be asked to identify yourself.

What is kept

Submissions are stored with the submitting IP address and browser string, so that abuse and repeat offenders can be dealt with. Camera metadata — including GPS coordinates — is stripped from every upload before it is written to disk, so submitting a photo does not publish where it was taken.
