I never vote for something I thing is just stolen from somewhere and posted here.
Most of NSFW seems to be that. Sometimes there is even a watermark for the website in the picture...
This is not in your case but it could be one reason.
Another could be people are just too busy using their hand somewhere else so they cannot click :D
What if it's your work though? A model can't share images from shoots they've done?
Legally they do not hold the copyright to the photos. Being in a photo does not give you rights, the copy right is always owned by the person who shot it in the U.S. (and most other places as well), the model also signs a model release allowing the image to be used commercially by the photographer.
What you negotiate with the photographer can give your the rights. If you hire a photographer you will have to see if you have the rights to use them commercially as well as just hiring a photographer does not always guarantee commercial rights. So you have to discuses that with the photographer ahead of time. I personally have different rates for personal & portfolio usage Vs. commercial usage.
Say I did a shoot for a porn company, and I gave them the rights to the content, and I have been given the go ahead to use the content for promotional purposes, and not for commercial use. Is SteemIt considered promotional use? Is there a grey area? If so I'll have to stop sharing some of those shots on here ^^;
This is grey area as could be considered commercial use I believe. You would have to check with them. Personally if I allowed a model to use my images on here I'd want her to use the split feature so they payout would be shared.
The reason being is that as a female she would probably make more money from the photos than I would just by being female, when I put in up to 8x the actual hours on the images and there is also a duplicate content issues with Steemit I believe we'er would not both post the same images.
I do not know how to use the split feature yet but I have heard it has been implemented maybe someone else can chime in on this with more knowledge than I have on it.
But if I paid her for the shoot I might not allow it at all. That would be me paying someone to profit from my work and then prevent me for also using it on Steemit. So that would be just really bad business.
I'm not trying to rub any bad elbows in the industry, thanks for the heads up, I'll quit using those and get to shooting more quality stuff at home ^_^
I respect that as I'm the same way I won't vote on Stolen/Pirated images either as I know how much work goes into producing them.
That last line...lol
