News - Flickr Alternatives - DeviantArt

Should the proposed changes happen and be enforced on Flickr. Which state Free Members will no longer be allowed to upload "NSFW" or Porn imagery. ( Full Announcement Here. ) Then I'm extremely confident we will find a solution within our community. We'll explore every option. As i have no wish for Sexiest Pornstars Members to have to stop being Pornstars or being hot and Fabulous in any way! Just because they do not wish to go Pro on Flickr!

So far DeviantArt is looking a really promising alternative for free Flickr users. Second Life imagery is welcomed. Adult, NSFW/Porn is welcomed. I was also able to make a "Sexiest-Pornstars" group there. Which means this blog can function as it always has too. With a central pool of images for our awesome Blog Editor Ali to browse content for HAM, TT, Hump Day Galleries etc. Sexiest Pornstars Members will also be able to share links in our group in world and as always. With other DevientArt members able to view it.

EXPLICIT PORNOGRAPHY WILL NOT BE ALLOWED ON DEVIANTART THOUGH. SO IT IS NOT THE PERFECT SOLUTION. ALBIET A GOOD FIT FOR EROTIC, NUDITY, AND MILDER SEXUAL THEMES.

We are also going to be urging Sexiest Pornstars Members to begin adding Twitter/Tweets to notices and also their Twitter Handles too. As an extra means to share Second Life Porn content. We will no longer keep all our eggs in one basket, and give Flickr their monopoly! A move to social media is also great for members on the move, and unable to be in world.

This is a on going trial. Problems may arise. It's why we're taking time to find the absolute best possible place to adopt for the group/community. I'll report back with problems as i go. The important thing is this is day one of looking for a Flickr alternative. We already have a very promising place, that will allow us to function as normal. With some small compromises. There is life after Flickr! We will carry on. :)
