Reviews 101

Not to pick a fight or anything, but once a girl agrees to have her picture taken, she has basically given de facto permission for them to be posted on the web. I'm sure there are certain "legalities" involved here which may or may not technically give the lady certain rights to her image, but I fall back on two things. First, I firmly believe in "possession if nine tenths of the law".-- i.e. whom ever has the pictures, owns the pictures and can do whatever he/she wants with those pictures. Second, this is the digital age. Everyone has a camera. There is almost no expectation of privacy. If you allow yourself to have your picture taken in any setting (hobby or RL), expect those pics to pop up somewhere on the web. In this day and age, I can take picture and have it on Facebook in 60 seconds. Just food for thought. Originally Posted by Cpalmson

If you "assume" permission you are avoiding asking, maybe because you don't want her to reconsider her decision to allow the pics in the first place.

If you followed your arguments that "possession" and ease of access to the internet justify posting pics without explicit permission then it would be okay to post the face pics sent during screening and for providers to post pics of mongers. Hey what's sauce for ...

Let's phrase it this way: It is discourteous to assume permission. A gentlemen will always ask and will always make his intentions clear so that there can be question that she approved.

BTW, I had a discussion about a similar RL issue and the dangers of unthinking posting of pics on FB and the like. The upshot was that the ease of posting isn't an excuse for bad taste and the lack of discretion. No, it just made it imperative that people recognize the dangers.
Plus a lot of these pictures have GPS data embedded in them, which isn't safe, IMO.

I understand it's a part of the culture of this board to submit pics from the session, and there are practical as well as voyeuristic reasons for doing so.

However, to awl4knot's point, I would no more want to take pictures of a provider than I would want her taking pictures of me. But I'm also probably a little more paranoid about that kind of stuff than the average person.

180 reviews X 6 weeks of PA (premium access) per review = 1080 weeks of prem access

1080 / 52 weeks per year = 20.77 years. (basically 20 years 9 months...just allow me to round)

Minus 23 months he's been part of ECCIE = estimated 18 yrs 10 months of PA remaining.

Assuming he would have seen every girl w/o changing, had he gone with 100/yr for paid PA that's $1800...now in savings.

B/C of SL's ability to fuck and take pictures and share it with the world, he's saved an estimated 1800 over the course of two years.

Congrats sir, First beer is on you.

Point of order Mr. SL....is that post them with or without her knowledge and/or permission?

I see alot of ladies changing their minds on allowing pics to be taken if she knows they may be posted without her permission. Originally Posted by SinsOfTheFlesh

But I only have so much space so I rotate... out with the old and in with new. A while back as an example, XOXOKarla requested the pictures taken down. They were down in 5 minutes and I also deleted them. I would assume that providers use caution when allowing pictures to be taken and can only hope that other hobbyist be just as respectfully.

Thank you for asking SINS!

I pretty much take for granted if she takes her clothes off, starts sucking on little SL and spreads her legs that I have a "GO". Same with the picture taking. I tell the providers I post limited pictures with my reviews. I certainly let them know I will take them down at any time! I even carry my lap top with me for this very reason. Some of the photo sessions get … very intense at times. Some ladies just love modeling and having their pictures taken. I show all the pictures to the providers and they have the option to delete at will. Recently I took over 80 pictures and the provider erased all but 3. Again I post limited pictures but have a VERY LARGE library for my own personal collection.

Speaking of pictures... you have reviewed my dream provider "Ashley Dior" 3 times. No Pictures?

Once a pic is posted online it is never truly deleted and once posted anyone can save the pic and will do whatever they please with it. With or without permission. Once posted it is no longer under your control.

it's great to post a review refresher, and i agree with almost all of it. personally, i don't think writing a penthouse letter detailing all the activities is necessary, and it's mostly bullshit. they're in the list...nuff said. if you want to make note of particularly outstanding skills...or lousy ones, that's worthy, as long as it's objective.

So you like that mousy Jersey girl Ashley Dior who is a dead ringer for Jenny McCarthy's smoking hot younger sister? I try to put her photos in her reviews but ECCIE's technology doesn't cooperate. But here's the pitch on her photos. They are gorgeous but completely accurate. She looks exactly like that and it is just wonderful.

But, SL you are a mensch and I'll send you, if I am able some, AD pics that will buckle your knees. Stay alert. For Your Eyes Only.

BTW, I know a girl in Houston who is just as haute.
