Yaa I use sometimes n Yaa by my approach if you want to elevate your poem to the best height then the pic is necessary...n sorry if your poem mods removed.. nd if we can write erotic or sensuality then what is the problem in posting erotic images??

I believe it’s to do with the severity of the images, if there’s penetration involved etc. There’s a difference between tasteful erotic images and a face full of ploughed beaver if you catch my drift.

You should protest that everyone's pics should be removed... Right?

To go back to the original point here of “do pics make poems better”
… no.
Been saying that for years.
To be perfectly blunt, if you need a flaps-out porn pic to illustrate a piece, then the piece hasn’t done its job properly in the first place.
I guess “up your poetry game” would be the main bullet point here.
We live in this culture of instant gratification. Nobody uses their imaginations anymore, and it’s killing the few brain cells people have got left. It’s all handed to us in neatly packaged little bundles. You can even see it in the comments on people’s work of late - nobody wants to think, they just want poetry handed to them on nice clean plates. And I’m a bit tired of it.
Personally (and this is simply my opinion, I’m not telling anybody else to think this way) I’m dead against the whole porn pics on here thing. What others post is their right to, so I simply don’t look at it. But I come here for poetry. Not porn. There’s a million other websites for the discerning pump n’ dump seeker. And maybe I’m just a bit sick of everything on earth being sexualised at the moment.
So I guess as individuals we all have to ask ourselves why we’re here. We only answer to ourselves at the end of the day.

I'm going to add this here-- it's the guidelines we use for yay or nay, on visual media. Basically, all pictures and videos must be your own work/something you created, and if not, a disclaimer needs to be posted with it, giving credit to the true artist.
Information for Moderators
Typically always allowed:
Tasteful nude, such that you might find in a classical painting.
Multimedia that is only allowed on poems flagged "extreme content":
Full nude (including genitalia)
Erotica / softcore porn ("artistic" XXX without real life penetration close ups)
Never allowed multimedia:
Selling a product or designed to advertise a website (containing URL or phone number for example)
Logo or indirect promotion of an illegal website (e.g. warez) or hardcore porn website
Depicting rape, abuse or torture
Hardcore real life porn with close ups of penetration
Real death or extreme gore
Unrelated videos (not a spoken word version of the poem)
Copyrighted images, where the poster doesn't have permission to use it
