Fellow PaDers,
I have changed my user name to be more ananimous. I've done this following a number of derogatory comments regarding one photo in particluar. I have also added the following disclaimer to a few of my galleries in the hopes that this will end the unwelcomed comments once and for all. I believe these comments have come from 'Guests'.
** MESSAGE TO GUESTS REGARDING THE CENSORING OF COMMENTS **
These photos are posted for their visual amd artistic merit. Any constructive comments relating to these criteria are greatly appreciated. However, these are MY photo's and this is MY space - I PAY THE RENT! I WILL not accept or allow comments that are disparaging or derogaroty toward another person or group of people. ANY FORM OF HARASSMENT OR DISCRIMINATION IS NOT ALLOWED IN MY GALLERIES.
I generally take photo's of people with their permission. I view that as a trust in me. I do not post photos of people in my galleries so that others can take pot shots at that person or group.
I will continue to be diligent in my censorship of such comments from any of my galleries!
Take care ( and lots of photos)
Jude
