You know the story so I wont bore you with my discontent with Flickr. Other than to say "candid" and porn are on there way out. You see this by the large numbers of members being deleted in a short amount of time. Unfortunately those who complain about these types of photos don't discriminate between the two. It seems our appreciation with the "average girl" is seen as sick, demented somehow. Not as a celebration of the form or beauty we see. I think few of us who appreciate candid photography actually masturbate to them but try explaining that to the Victorian Puritans of America.
So here I am combining all my art and perversion into one site. An hope that what ever ideals that have affected Flickr will not afflict Ipernity. Until then please enjoy that which I enjoy. Mixing all creativity from sublime to the erotic in one place.

I started a new Flickr account an was deleted again in 48 hours. Admittedly I created a profile that would be circumspect . I was pissed. I contacted Flickr for an answer as to why I was deleted in the first place. I got the formula answer about voyeur's are creepy-read guidelines, asked to move on to another site, then deleted again.
So one has to be very benign to be acceptable to the neo con mentality of Flickr. I still don't understand their thinking. I never considered myself or candid female photography "creepy". I guess if we peruse through list of groups (adult and non-adult) and invite photos to a candid group that makes us creepy.
I don't feel like going back an reconnecting to all those contacts just to be deleted.
So here I am.
Subliminally Sexy wasn't all that successful in my eyes so I am not sad to be away from it. The two admins. that are there where promoted from previous deletions. "Model" has nothing to do with the group as far as I can tell and "Shutterbug" doesn't seem to be on top of it. Ask if you still want too.
I am trying to come up with a better "subliminal" group here but haven't figured out how to make it work without a constant policing of submissions. One reason I was deleted from Flickr; I would search other groups looking for that subliminally sexy shot, invite someone to contribute and they probably thought I was a creep and reported me. I don't want the same to happen here. A new group in my thinking should try to challenge a shooter beyond point and click. It should help promote candid in a better light yet display the natural sexiness in the daily routine of the average Jane.
The definition of subliminal must be universally understood which a lot people at Flickr didn't take the time to do. Subliminal shots are in the mind of the beholders so finding criteria to define and refine such a group is difficult. It was a lot of work to judge and cull the shots submitted which made it very subjective on my part.
If anyone has ideas as to how to make "Subliminally Sexy" here on Ipernity better, I'm all ears.
One thing is for sure it will be "private". Last thing we need is a creepy perv running amuck through a classy group. Right?
