is thumbsnap still suitable ?
Discussion
not sure if i've just never noticed it before but when i click on an image now which has been uploaded to PH via thumbsnap, it takes you to their site for a full res version of the image, but where it shows you thumbs of other images (on that same page) it's pretty much full of scantily clad females in underwear, posing etc.
Now, for transparency, this isn't an issue for me (
) however - i always felt PH was quite family originated, is this appropriate still?

this forum embedded feature links out to thumbsnap - to me that is kind of an endorsement from PH that TS is the chosen partner for image hosting.
i assume the majority of image uploads are via this method, and therefore, anyone clicking on an image in a post will see these provocative images also?

Don’t k ow what you’re complaining about, all seems above board to me:
I only followed a link to a close up of someone’s new vrs estate, honest!
Mod note: Ironic I know, but it's not really SFW. We've flagged it up for the management so don't need the pictures here.

It's genuinely an issue.
Currently I am working from home, and often browse on my phone, but it does mean I basically can enlarge the images at work even during lunch time, and have to be slightly careful if browsing in a public place or with my partner around. Not because I have anything to hide but because people make judgments and explaining that the bouncing tits and thong shots across the bottom are nothing to do with the bit of car/engine/diy you are trying to get a good view of!
Obviously also PH is open to a range of audiences, I know for one I was using car/boat forums as a teenager and I don't think it is a normal I would want to set for a younger audience.

We are looking into this as a matter of urgency and will be introducing a workaround that means you can't click to Thumbsnap from the image, and will apply this retrospectively best we can to all thumbsnap posts previously.
Will this remove the ability to get the full resolution copy of the images? In which case, I would say it's a retrograde step.Better to keep the existing images as they are and work to a better solution for new images moving fwd.
