Yep, UT seems quite understanding here, but VampYre, well, he's another story.

I recall a few months back someone writing that the IotD was supposed to be "family friendly".
Is this true? I have been sent some photos that are NSFW, NSFKids, and NSFthe Aesthetically Sensitive. Its either the IotD or WTF/NSFW thread.
Any guidance?

I don't know about family friendly, but many many people browse IOTD (and the rest of the board) from work. If it's just gory, that's one thing, but if it's truly NSFW, that should definitely go in a NSFW thread.

On the whole, I'd generally rather not see graphic stuff in IotD. One of the NSFW threads would be better.

But, there have been some grisly IotDs in the past. The burned Nigerian gasoline thieves come to mind. I think those can be good for IotD if they tell a story that you aren't seeing somewhere else.

What's going on? Can I post anywhere?

I can't post a reply in the photoshop thread, and the advanced button goes to a page cannot be displayed.

EDIT: Yeah, I definitely can't post a reply in that one thread.

I thought it was a slow day on t'internet but the station next to me is working at normal speed so I guess it's just the Cellar.

My two hour log in has been mostly spent looking at error messages
Have we been invaded?

or vice versa if you use the www version
