RE: Truenudists goes the Freemium Route.

I'm wondering if there's a misunderstanding....think this through, you can have more than five pics here and all remains the same, the fundamental difference is that if you want to VIEW more than five on other profiles then you need to pay the $4.95/per month. THE BIGGER BENEFIT IS: is that now, pictures cannot be copied by ANYONE which makes this site and the pics safer than many others. A benefit that everyone was lobbying for about four to six months ago. Five bucks a month to protect our pics and not see Jen on a Russian porn site, you bet I'll pay it, if just for that! BTW folks, other sites like NING are totally unsafe for pic use. Images are stored in a server somewhere, where other ning accounts can pick them up and display them without your knowledge or permission. Absolutely no ownership control... so go for it... The advantage here is so much greater! So the sky isn't falling, the sky IS NOT falling, it's getting sunnier! Steve. P.S. and as we've told others in chat, the VISA/MC issue IS being addressed.... nothing is perfect the first time you create it...
A case in point about the ning sites is that when I went to join one, I didn't have to upload a profile pic. It offered to set the pic I had as a profle pic on another site as my profile pic.

RE: Maybe you could have at least given people notice, it

True nudists is a FREE online community for naturists worldwide. We are the number 1 resource for nudist resorts, nude beaches or nudist friends in your area.

I joined here a year ago when site was still new. Based on discussions in chat and in forums with site owner the goal was to promote nudism and give people a way to share ideas with other nudists. Membership here is still free, the important things like forum, chat, messages are still available to all members. I chose to be a donor months ago because I appreciated what we were getting for free. I will be a premium member for the same reason, not because of the ability to view more pics.

My problem has and always has been the profiles with no pics, the lack of moderators (thankyou the guys and gals who have stepped in when i have asked to FLASH) and the limited options to pay
BUT

Thankyou TT for your response and hopefully we can all settle down and support poor TT in keeping this site going!!

TT,. if you need a hand guess give me a shout!!

There is another added bonus that I think many people have neglected to see in their anger/surprise over the change. One of the bigger beefs I have seen here is the perv element, how people just troll the profiles looking at nude pics. Now that there is a charge to view pics it will add a discouragement for the prevs not to come here, as there are many free sites out there to view nude forms. Furthermore, it is an added security feature to protect your nude pics. Another major concern is people's nude pics can be taken and start floating around the net. Since most pervs do not pay for their pleasures, if your first 5 pics uploaded are non-nude there is less of a chance some perv is going to take your pics. Just another way to look at it.

RE: Truenudists goes the Freemium Route.

Steve, The pics can still be copied. I'd be happy to copy any of yours and send them to you. If you can see it on the screen, you can copy them.

Go ahead and try....using 'save picture as," and the 'copy' commands, save a clear frame to file, when you go to open it up, nothing there....

I copied and sent you the mushroom pic. If it can be seen, it can be copied. And it doesn't take a geek to do it. But it only takes one person to do it and spread them all over the internet should they choose. So don't be uberhappy about the disabling of the right-click option. The other method only took me about three seconds longer to accomplish.

For crying out loud Jim and Steve.Curt please don't jump on this bandwagon.The fact of the matter is that TT1 listened to us....many members asked for a right click disable and he gave it to us. Many members asked for a better way to scroll through pictures and he gave it to us. TT1 does listen to the members here and take into consideration the features they would like. It may take a little longer than we would like sometimes (patience - we all need to learn patience) but it does get done! You don't find that at most of the other sites.

Okay - so does disabling the right click make everyone's pics completely safe? No, of course it doesn't. Any one with half a brain knows that. It does, however, make it that much more difficult. For all you computer nerds and geeks out there - the fact of the matter is that the majority of john q. public are NOT that computer savvy and when you announce to them that there are still ways to get around it - (I've even seem some geeks here who actually spell it out for them just to prove a point) Then you encourage them to find those other methods.

So thank you TT1 for listening to us and adding a feature that many of us have requested. For any one who cares if their pictures are safe - this feature makes it more difficult, but not impossible. You still need to use caution posting pics that you don't want to find any where else if you are someone who has concerns about that.

Nothing is foolproof. Never underestimate the ingenuity of fools. But TT has gone a long way to improve the site. There's still a couple of GLARING mistakes that need to be corrected: A safer and more reliable payment company than AlertPay, and more payment options. Hopefully those fixes are in the works. Jen, it serves no purpose for people to think their pics are now safe, when they aren't. That's just full disclosure. The average John Q. Public is getting more and more computer savvy everyday, and the ones who specialize in spreading pics around the internet are fully versed in the "how-to." There is no harm in members being made aware of this. The safety of the members come before the health of the site. When all the other issues are fixed, we will repost our pics, but members should never think that their pics cannot be copied, and it should never be announced that way.

Point very well taken. Thank you, Rabbit. And thank you TT1 for adding a feature that many here have asked for that makes it slightly more difficult to copy pics.
