It can be acceptable to include other people in your photos here - for example pictures
of you and your partner together or you with a group of your naked buddies. However, please
observe the following rules:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Be sure you have the permission of everybody pictured to upload their photo here. I
don't want any "revenge porn" type content uploaded without somebody's consent!
</li>
<li>
You all must be in <strong>the same photo</strong> together - that is it must be a
"normal picture" taken on a camera that caught you all in the same frame. <strong>Do NOT</strong>
upload a "split-frame" picture where you simply combined two wholly different photos side-by-side
into one image: it is not clear from such a picture whether you two even <em>know</em> one
another and it's not a precedent I want to see set on this site.
</li>

<p>
<span class="tag is-success">NEW March 8 2023</span>
</p>
<p>
In small doses, modified pictures may be permitted if you consider them to be
artwork inspired by <strong>your</strong> real photos. For example, the founder
of this website likes to create "clone pictures" featuring multiple copies of
himself around a scene together. Some guidelines to follow when it comes to
Photoshopped images include:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
You must have several <strong>not modified</strong> photos on your profile
page as well, that shows what you really look like. If <em>every</em> picture
on your page is digitally altered, you look like a fake profile and you may
have your account deleted.
</li>
<li>
You should not use image manipulation to improve or falsify your look. This
includes Instagram or Snapchat "beauty filters" or using Photoshop to change
the shape of your body and promote a false image of unrealistic beauty.
</li>
<li>
You should mention in your image caption, if it is not obvious, that the picture
has been digitally altered so that nobody is confused.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Some examples of acceptable use cases for Photoshop include:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Changing or removing the background of your photo (e.g. for privacy purposes)</li>
<li>
Minor touch-ups to cover pimples or small blemishes - but do not "air brush" and
repaint your whole skin tone or smooth over all your wrinkles and present an
unrealistic image of yourself.
</li>
</ul>

<h1 id="chat-faqs">Chat Room FAQs</h1>
<h2 id="chat-access">Who can access the chat rooms?</h2>
<p>
The chat room is available to all <strong>certified</strong> members who have public photos
on their profile page. <a href="#shy-faqs">Shy Accounts</a> who have private profiles or keep
all their pictures hidden are not permitted in the chat room at this time - but they may get
their own separate room later where they can bother other similarly shy members there.
</p>
<p>
The chat room supports webcam sharing and so we only permit non-shy people into the
room so as to put our minds at peace - that whoever is watching your camera at least
has a public face picture on their page.
</p>
<h3 id="chat-support">What are the technical requirements to use the chat room?</h3>
<p>
The chat room seems to work the best on the following combination of devices and
web browsers:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Firefox</strong> and <strong>Chromium</strong>-based web browsers
on <strong>all desktop-like operating systems</strong> including Windows, Mac OS
and Linux. Chromium-based browsers include Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Opera,
Brave or others that are based on the open source Chromium browser.
</li>
<li>
On <strong>Android</strong> devices, all <strong>Firefox</strong> and <strong>Chromium-based</strong>
browsers are generally working quite well.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
The chat room and video sharing generally works well on the above devices. Below
are some that are known to have issues with the chat room at this time:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Safari on Mac OS X</strong> usually works for the text chat portions
(entering the room and chatting), but webcam sharing doesn't seem to work (either
broadcasting or viewing others' cameras).
</li>
<li>
<strong>iPhone and iPad</strong> (all web browsers) have difficulty logging in to
the chat room at all. Chrome or Firefox do not work on iOS, either - because under
the hood all web browsers on iOS are just custom wrappers around Mobile Safari,
which doesn't like my chat room right now. So unfortunately, Apple mobile devices
can not use the chat room.
</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="webcam-support">I can't share or connect to other peoples' webcams</h3>
<p>
First, verify that you're using a <a href="#chat-support">known supported device</a>
when accessing the chat room. Generally this means you're running a Firefox or
Chromium-based browser on a desktop computer, laptop, or Android device. Webcam
sharing does not work <strong>at all</strong> in Safari on Mac OS, and portable
Apple devices such as iPad and iPhone do not work with the chat room at all.
</p>
<p>
If you are on a supported device, check out the following information about how
webcam sharing works:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
When you click on the "Start webcam" button, your browser should prompt you to
share your webcam and microphone and then you should see your own camera feed
on the page above the chat history panel.
<ul>
<li>
If you do not see your own webcam, check your web browser settings
and verify you gave permission to <code>chat.nonshy.com</code> to
access your camera.
</li>
<li>
Any device with a camera should be able to <strong>at least</strong>
get far enough to see your own camera feed on the page if you give
it permission to access it.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
For sharing your webcam to others (for them to open your camera, as well as
for you to open somebody else's camera and watch them), this currently requires
a <strong>peer-to-peer connection</strong> between your device and the other party's.
<ul>
<li>
This uses a technology called
<a href="https://webrtc.org/">WebRTC</a> and it <em>usually</em>
works in most cases. Even if both you and the other person are behind
firewalls on your respective networks (e.g. behind a home WiFi network
that performs Network Address Translation), you can usually establish a
peer-to-peer connection and share video regardless.
</li>
<li>
Sometimes, the network conditions on either end of the connection do not
permit a peer-to-peer connection. This can happen in some corporate or school
networks which filter and block unauthorized connections.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
A couple of steps you can try and troubleshoot this issue include:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Try logging on from a different web browser. For example, if you are using Firefox
and you can't open somebody's video, try switching to a Chromium browser and see if
it works better there.
</li>
<li>
If there are many people online, try opening somebody else's camera. It may be the
case that the person you were trying to see is behind a network that doesn't allow
you to connect in, but it may work to open somebody else's camera instead.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
If all else fails, it's unfortunate but at least the text chat functions should work at least.
Some big video apps like Zoom or Jitsi Meet tend to work better because, if you can't establish
a peer-to-peer connection, they will fall back on using a proxy server to transmit your video
through to the other party. The {{PrettyTitle}} chat room does not have such a proxy server --
because the bandwidth can get expensive to carry video across! Only peer-to-peer video sharing
is supported at this time.
</p>
<h3 id="chat-more">Where can I learn more about the chat room?</h3>
<p>
Please also see the <a href="https://chat.nonshy.com/about">Chat Help page</a> which gives
a tour of the chat room interface and some additional information about how to use the chat room.

It can be acceptable to post a photo that includes yourself <em>and</em> another
person, but please see the following rules:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Be sure you have the permission of all people in your photo before you upload it.</li>
<li>
You and the other people must be in <strong>the same</strong> photo together:
"split frame" photos where you just combine two wholly separate pictures together
into one are not allowed! This is because it's not clear whether you even <em>know</em>
the other person pictured or if you had their permission to post it; and to keep on top
of avoiding any "exposure blogs" where someone might post pictures of randoms so long as
they also composite their own pic next to it.
