Nelson Mandela shows up as plain white?
How ironic!
I have been thinking, I wonder why Nelson Mandelly picture was rejected? seeing as he fought for equal rights in South Africa and as we know it ended in a multi racial democracy in South Africa and also contirbuted to world feedom.
Many photographs, "lifted" from google Images or somesuch, have, copyright issues, or involve Image Rights.
Despite all the nonsense you hear about Sky Poker being unfair from time to time, the entire bskyb Group, including all of Sky Bet, are squeaky squeaky clean as to the legal side of things, & everything gets checked & double-checked with the Legal peeps.
And that is why Members cannot upload photographs without them first receiving Moderators approval.
You Sir, I like, a man who reads between the lines, & thinks these things through.
It really is most ironic.
it's pretty much as loonytoons puts it.
we have to follow strict rules that are put in place on all Sky related communities (including this little 'un right here)
as tikay suggests it's not always the actual image that gets a picture rejected, it can be the source, file type, path, size etc etc etc.
there are actually quite a few reasons out of the obvious why a photo can be rejected, although don't let that put you off, most pictures are just fine as long as you use a little common sense when selecting/ uploading.
nope i'm afraid not.
as i said before, using a little common sense when selecting/uploading, most pictures are just fine.
cheers
Just put a duck on Webby.......or even a mallard!...lol
rich dont try and belittle me please, its not cool and quite annoying.
its an over 18 site and thats why i dint think there would be a problem with that picture, i will go to toys r us and try find a suitable picture for this site
i'm not trying to belittle you webby, sorry if you felt that way.
as stated we have quite strict rules when it comes to uploaded customer images and i'm afraid your latest picture simply wasn't suitable.
i'll edit that quick!
sorry all!
[embarrassed face]
It's got nothing to do with being a Site for "Over 18's" Webby, nothing at all. It's all about understanding the Company ethos.
It's how Sky work, & nobody, not nobody, no-how, ever, will get them to change, it's the Group ethos - everything, to the very last detail, has to be 100% street-legal, & not open to doubt.
ITV, BBC, Ch4 & 5, they are always in court for all sorts of funny stuff, phone-in scams & the like.
bskyb don't work like that - they are THE most legally compliant organisation I've ever known.
That ain't gonna change any time soon, & the combined might of Sky-Rich, Sky Bernie, Sky-Des & Sky Uncle Tom Cobbley will never change that. Some things we either have to take or leave.
No amount of pressure will change that.
