No, text is not allowed on entries (unless special rules apply)

Yes, you need to title your image, but even ESL people can get that one right (most of the time).

I just wanted to bump taterbug's solution, since it seems to be reasonable (and it's one of the few suggestions that are).


I have no problem with that, however nudes sometimes slip through without a flag and, really, the same warning applies to all challenges anyway and people acknowledge accepting that risk in the ToS when they sign up.

And again whats that got to do with photography. So no nudes and if you spell your title wrong it should be filtered too.....

well, you know, as long as were taking everyone's religious views into account, you know.

after this, we should add a "spiritual" flag so the atheists don't have to see anything that has a cross or depicts anything to do with prayer or meditation.

lets just censor everything from every possibly angle, bit by bit, until all we can enter is flower macros and waterfall shots. (the insects might be mating after all)

And sunsets... those are safe... unless they are over a nude beach of course, or with a cross in the foreground.

Nope. In England "shite" is common...

A man that can see the glass half full and half empty. A man I can respect.

I do understand that sometimes nudes (or other adult content pics) would slip through. However, by indicating that a challenge had at least one image that was definitely flagged as 'adult' would perhaps serve as a more immediate 'warning' that there are indeed 'adult' images in that particular challenge, and that might give those who are anti-nudity/whatever a not-so-subtle-and-not-so-easily-overlooked indicator that there are pictures in the challenge that they might not want to view (at all, at work, in front of the kids, whatever).

They would just have to take a chance on the challenges that did not have any pics flagged. Which they have to do now, anyway. This might serve as a compromise - it's not going to skew voting (other than lowering the vote count total throughout the challenge) and it's not going to censor anyone's pictures. It would allow people who do not wish to see 'adult' images to have a little more control over what they see without penalizing the photographers who choose to shoot such content.

And if someone who had the 'adult' images flagged chose to continue on and vote the challenge anyway, then that is their choice and they wouldn't have a foot to stand on to whine about unexpected adult images in those challenges.

As far as images that should be flagged, but aren't, or images that are incorrectly flagged as adult, but aren't ... well, I don't have a solution for that. But as scalvert said, you know the risks when you sign up.

I contemplate the meaning of life - while squishing grapes between my toes, listening to Tibetan monk chants, and reading Confucius ...in the nude.

But I can't watch Star Wars in the nude anymore; Chewbacca is just too lascivious! (Furry bastage gets me sinnin & grinnin!!)
