Butch picture thread ..
 
I am surprised there is no butch picture thread.
Ya know pictures of the butches who write on here. It really would save working through galleries to see who your talking to ?

Sorta like faces in one thread ?

Or is there one already I haven't seen ?

I'd be happy with a member photo thread, if you don't want to limit it to just butches. I always feel like a chump clicking on the gallery link and coming up empty handed (or would that be empty eyed?).

Mister Bent 07-14-2011 08:03 PM

Why don't we just do away with the gallery and post all our pictures in one place?

Oh wait...



Seriously, I don't see how this would be easier than clicking on the convenient profile link to the left there. It's easier to look through the galleries than to scroll through 15 pages of a thread.

I guess I thought it would be fun because some people don't know how to upload photos to their gallery and/or haven't. Don't be crotchety, some of us only have enough space for two measly photos. :)

bigbutchmistie 07-14-2011 08:23 PM

Um how do you put a pic here? I will do it :) Not that you cant just look on the left hand side and see my ugly mug LOL

I think two photos, or really one, is sufficient for the purpose of knowing "the butches who write on here" (and femmes). Also, I think it's actually easier to upload a picture to the gallery than in a thread, which requires saving your photo to an external hosting service, then pasting in the proper link, as opposed to clicking the button that says "upload photo." (Or whatever handy thing it actually says). Having said that, I shamelessly post photos of my awesome dog all over the site, but it's still easier to go to my gallery to find one.

And I will be crotchety. Don't deny me.

Mr. Bent said it most succinctly: upload your photos to an exterior hosting site (like photobucket or flickr or something) and then use the yellow box with the mountain in it button (above text box) to paste the URL of your uploaded photo.

it's really a pain in the ovaries, but I'm used to it. :)

tapu 07-14-2011 08:48 PM

I've always been stubborn about the off=site photo sites. I can't be bothered. :)


the upload to the gallery was easy

however, i guess i would like to be able to put images in here.

why can't i just "browse"??? :(

why is it that it can be done with browse in the gallery but out here it takes a host site?

Mister Bent 07-14-2011 08:51 PM

One good turn...

She's sort of shameless, so that's not particularly challenging!

Stop being difficult!

Why can't people just love and accept the gallery as it is?!

My photo is to the left under my name and in the gallery. Just click on the link. Good lord.

bigbutchmistie 07-14-2011 09:05 PM

Well I just did it for the fun of it.... :) Great thread why not?

ScandalAndy 07-14-2011 09:10 PM

Because I enjoy being difficult, and irritating Mr. Bent (and Hack?) is something I'm finding myself rather talented at...



This one didn't fit in my gallery:

All that clicking.

SO exhausting.

I need a nap.

i'm exhausted just reading about it!!

dixie 07-14-2011 09:29 PM

I thought the reason we did not have a photo thread is because admin once told us that they prefer that we did not. Daywalker (I think) already had the idea for a photo thread once before. Admin gave us reasons why it was not a good idea. I think something to do with bandwidth or one of those technical term thingys. I don't see a problem with clicking under someone's name either. Then again, sometimes I'm a bit crotchety myself. lol

dixie 07-14-2011 09:32 PM

Yes, I think that was it.

And paying for a membership effectively means you help pay for the bandwidth all those photos use up.



Stitch 07-14-2011 09:34 PM

if Bandwidth was a worry, why is there a Youtube thread and "find me a picture" thread.

I don't mind clicking under names too. I would rather someone click for my picture because they enjoyed what I said. Other than seeing my picture and then looking to see if I am smart.

yeah, that made sense. Thank you for the explanation, Dixie. :)

I can't help it, I'm getting a kick out of this.

As I said, I don't remember the exact reason.

Corkey 07-14-2011 09:39 PM

I think it also had to do with having bots searching and being able to have some since of privacy, or something.
<-------------Ours are over there

dixie 07-14-2011 09:44 PM

Ah, found it. Not so technical after all, but a reason nonetheless. "Using a thread as a gallery space circumvents the intent of the gallery and also lessens the value of the gallery space." Whether or not this is still the case, I don't know. Just throwing it out there.

Interestingly, there is an entire thread dedicated to asking admin and tech just these sorts of questions.

Yeah, that's another good reason. Oh hey, but then we could put the thread in one of those private forums! And on it goes, so no one has to actually pay to enjoy that additional perk of paid membership. Maybe we could all just get baby emus as thank you gifts instead.

I'm sort of curious as to why the OP only wanted to post butch pictures.


ScandalAndy 07-14-2011 09:55 PM

I want a golden retriever puppy. Emus are too tall.

Corkey 07-14-2011 10:31 PM

I too am wondering why just butches.
Not going to make an assumption.
When my wife and I had our memberships we had plenty of space to post anything we wanted within the TOS. One of these days when the government decides to get their collective heads out of their collective rears we might be able to do so again. Til then we are limited on how many pics we post. Works for us.

Personally I would like an alpaca. For some reason I have a new-found obsession with them.

Holly.88 07-15-2011 12:45 AM

In order to avoid stepping on any toes, or rules, I won't be posting a picture on this thread.

Instead

I'll just put it out there that there is now at least one picture in my gallery.

Just sayin'.

Daktari 07-15-2011 04:05 AM

I think Merlin posted this because on the Brit BF sites we have such picture threads in both the butch and femme zones. Also on the Brit sites you don't have to pay for membership to add more than a couple of pics to your gallery...but then we are much smaller sites over here and therefore less bandwidth is necessary.

Just sayin' ...not trying to speak for Merlin who I'm sure will come back and tell y'all why hy posted this thread.

Sachita 07-15-2011 05:01 AM

I think a thread posting that you added "Eye Candy" to your gallery would be good. I'd personally love to see some butches post sexy an provocative pics showing off. If I'm missing anything then bloody hell point me in the right direction! lol

Yes, I was thinking that this was the reason when I saw the original post, as I have noticed that this is common on those sites and gallery pics are not.

It makes sense that hy would just think...hey, where is THAT thread (?), and not think anymore about it. The British sites have had that particular thread for years.

With that said, I don't see a need for that type of thread here, since galleries are easily accessible (one click to the left).

Merlin 07-15-2011 10:35 AM

Incubus is right.

Why butches ? *sticks head out thread and looks at forum section* this is the butch section or am I wrong ?

I did ask in my op if there was a thread to this question already.

A link would be helpful.

Do I get room when not a member to upload a picture of myself or is it just limited to members ?

Jess 07-15-2011 11:31 AM

Everyone who registers is a member, and yes, yes you get some space to upload pics!

Subscription holders get extra space depending on type of subscription :)

Hint: If you resize photos to be smaller, you can upload more. LOL. Good luck

PS... I'm not sure if it has been mentioned, but there are threads for feminine images and a masculine images thread. Perhaps the images you wish to post would fall into one or both of those categories.

Great thread Jess but how many of those pictures/videos are actually of folks from The Planet?

Jess 07-18-2011 04:58 AM

em.. I dunno...lol

if you add one, then we would know of at least one ;)

p.s there is also a "silver foxes" thread, which I am pretty sure is all folks from here:
