The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

Below is an extract from a post in April this year by one of the site owners, which gives some context to the issue around user avatars.


"Speaking of new features: over the last few years, we've rolled out several new features on Literotica that include visual elements. Those features include the Series Cover Art and the Author Profile Header Images. Those features all had one thing in common: a content guideline of "no nudity in any images". This policy grew out of feedback from the Literotica community.

Many Literotica readers (and authors) shared with us that they visit the site on their phones and would prefer not to have NSFWs images on the screen while someone else is looking over their shoulder. Other members told us there are so many sites on the internet with photos and videos that they would prefer Literotica remain a haven for text - the original intent when the site was launched more than a quarter century ago.


Anyone who's been around a while knows that we've always supported the free speech rights of individuals and websites to publish adult videos, photographs, and artworks. Over time, we've also become more and more aware of Literotica's unique identity as a community dedicated to storytelling via fantasies shared through writing and reading.

A few years into our experiment with the "no nudity" image policy for new features - and with overwhelmingly positive feedback during the experiment - we're planning to expand the policy to more of Literotica's existing features with images over the coming months. The obvious place where it will make a difference is in User Avatars, though we plan to expand the policy to the Literotica Forums as well as to the Illustrated Stories and Artwork in the future. We understand that these changes may have an impact on some members' already-published avatar images, forum uploads, illustrated stories, and artworks - but the total number of images involved should be tiny compared to the total number of images, stories, and other works shared on Literotica.

If you're a forum poster or author who has shared images (photos or artwork) that include nudity, you can prepare for the changes by editing/replacing those images yourself proactively - or you can wait until we have time to review all of the visual works and request changes to those that need to be updated.
Again - our research shows that the total number of items impacted by these changes will be very small (this only applies to images, not text), but we understand that each member's work is important to them. While the change might require a little extra effort in the short run, we're confident that it is the best move for the community in the long run. Please feel free to send us any feedback or questions you might have, as always."
 
I am working from home this morning and then getting a tooth extracted around 10:30. It’s the tooth that busted off about a year ago.

I went in for my check up about three or four months ago and my dentist was like “what’s that thing still in your head? Take it out.”

So today’s the day.

I told my boss I didn’t know how much “working from home.” I would be doing this afternoon.

(I always use heavily accentuated air quotes when I say working from home…) 😂
If only your dentist realised the jeopardy of asking you to "take it out" :LOL:
 
got my fingers crossed for ya 🤞

I'm so over the whole thing :mad:

OMG - so needed this today!!


This is a part of the disease. 🫂
When my aunt hit this stage she was wheelchair bound, which made the physical aspect of this behavior easier to manage.
I found this article helpful:

Whoo! Somebody's got your number :ROFLMAO:

:oops: nobody light a match 🔥

Nice of you to re-gift. Food gifts can be tricky.

you ain't kidding
I 💘 LOVE Your wit!!!

This is hogwash. I will bet a boatload of money that no such experiment or study took place.

This was done to comply with US and UK pornography laws.
 
Good morning denizens of the spoon. Well this avatar buzz is interesting and curious. No one’s avatar on this site was porn and yet they go blank. The actions do not match up with their words. 😠

They should check for copy right infringement issues on images used in avatars.

Yesterday was fun with granddaughter and friends for games. My college age old dog care lady was delightful. She has a sharp mind but comes across to others at times as absent minded. It’s an act.

This morning I am going for breakfast with friends. Otherwise it’s a day of domestic chores.

I will check in later.
