Flickr and pervs...

Can visitors see who follows someone? All I can seem able to see is whom that someone follows, but not the other way around.

He's talking about those who pick his photos as "favorites" not who's following him...........

...and another thing you should know, I'm kidding. All the porn is on my web site www.jimburns.org

I checked both yours and Nathan's Flickr accounts, so that says all there is to say about the camp I'm in.

I was commenting generally on the level of activity.
You can click on the people who have liked his images though and see what's there. I think I may have found what is offending the OP. Clicking on "Emma Holt's" photostream brings up a bunch of photos of teenage girls, as well as some blacked out frames with titles that indicate they are screengrabs from Pornhub videos.

To the OP, I clicked on a few of the profiles of people who have liked your images. At first I couldn't see what you were talking about, and then I clicked on the "Emma Holt" profile. It would behoove you to know that there are several of your images on that page. I didn't know you could repost other peoples images on Flickr, but all of the images appear to be correctly attributed. If I were you I'd take it up with Flickr directly.

Disregard that last part, I didn't notice that when you click on someones name via what they have favorited it just takes you to their favorites, which happen to have some porn screenshots in them.

We're also building a good anecdotal case to refute any notion that pervs have one-track minds. That'll disappoint my mother.

I think OhLook as put a finger on it, your images are beautifully lit, and they are probably trying to emulate the lighting style, and admire your work.

As long as they aren't stealing/reposting your images, I wouldn't worry about it.

Yep. It could literally be anything. Maybe they like any image where they see it's B&W, or was shot with film, or shot with a certain lens or camera.

Wouldn't blocking those people prevent them from faving photos and/or remove the OP's images from their favourites?

That is odd because I have all these landscape and wildlife photographers liking my pornography.

And to prevent a tidal wave of PMs for my flicker account is here

Doesn't that first shot breach the Flickr ToS? A really hot bird literally spread-eagled. You can see everything. That shot of the couple getting it on is awesome.

Laughing out loud is not something I commonly do when reading. But it happened reading this thread. More than once.

Thank you for the often entertaining discussion.

...is this possibly a ploy to drive more traffic to your flickr account - seems like you accomplished your goal!

Dang, you cracked my code...

I haven't yet figured out how to deposit Flickr views into my bank account. Maybe I'm missing a plugin or driver somewhere.

Send me a link to your page Bob and I'll follow you
