BANNED for Photo-a-day

Dear pbase:

Thank you for your reply.

Firstly. Inconsistency. I don't know whether this is a recently new policy
of PBase. Because all of my works of the same nature were posted
successfully in public in previous period. Please refer to rest ofmy works.

Secondly, nudity is also a kind of art work. According to my understanding,
PBase is a place for displaying art works for sharing photos among
photographers / photolovers including children for their appreciation of
fine art. In addition, Viewers should have the right to view ALL displaying
works instead of the works being judged.

Thirdly, double standard. Some nudity photos are also displayed, say just
yesterday one day only. See link:-
http://www.pbase.com/image/82722750
http://www.pbase.com/image/82715910
http://www.pbase.com/image/82701282

These photos are all displayed in photo-a-day session. Why not my work?

Thirdly, I don't agree to the judgment that my photos are INAPPROPRIATE ,
nor porno. Please see my samples that were barred from displaying. By the
way, who is going to make judgment and have such qualification to make
judgment of my work ! One of the works as attached is a reward winner of a
international salon competition.

Please explain to me about pbase's policy.

I agree with the other comments. This nude is well done but it certianly isn't sexy and definately isn't erotic. Who is this Brian guy? What Pbase 'team'? It would seem that with Pbase as screwed up as it is now, their computers a mess, and with them loosing customers, that they'd be going out of their way to please the thier customers and to keep them. I hate these little 'self-appointed-god' tricks. What arrogance!! If there's any thing 'inapropriate' here, its Pbase's petty behavior, not this photo. Sincerely, Lee

It seems to be one particular admin exercising personal judgement. You have a beautiful collection of tasteful images presented here. Keep up the exceptional work.

Very strange! Heard the same thing last week about a fellow photographer http://www.pbase.com/s_finazzi/profile) Meanwhile, there are much more revealing photos hanging in the populars (and sometimes of poor taste). Where is this new policy explained? Hopefully the urge to censor good nude art has not made it here, that would be unfortunate.

Hello lovebobo1314, welcome to the club of the blocked ones by PPBase. I also have been banned by PBase by my gallery “portraits - nudes / retrats - nu”. The criteria of censorship of the USA are irrational: they allow arms but they do not value the art. As I am glad of not living there. You have a very good photographic work. V O T E D !!!!!

I don't understand.... wish P Base would fill us all in on this.
