{{PrettyTitle}} is a social network for <strong>real</strong> nudists and exhibitionists.
{{PrettyTitle}} is a social network designed for confident, out &amp; proud nudists and exhibitionists who aren't
afraid to include a face pic along with their nudes. We are a community made up of:
</p>
<div class="pl-5 block">
<p>
☀️ <strong>Nudists:</strong> people who enjoy being naked and who like to share their
'normal nudes' with other like-minded people (platonically).
</p>
<p>
This website was designed by a life-long nudist, exhibitionist and software engineer to create
a safe space for like-minded individuals online, especially in the context of the modern Internet
after Tumblr, Pornhub and other social networks had begun clamping down and kicking off all the
nudists from their platforms.
😈 <strong>Exhibitionists:</strong> the subset of nudists who
also enjoy showing off their horny side with other exhibitionists.
</p>
<h2>Why was this site built?</h2>
</div>
<p>
This site was developed as a response to growing uncertainty as to the future of available
social networking sites for nudists and exhibitionists to use. Back in 2018, Tumblr was put
under pressure and they banned all NSFW users from their platform. In 2020, Pornhub also fell victim
and deleted 80% of all user content on their site. In 2021, Onlyfans almost fell victim to the same scheme:
there is a group of anti-porn prudes who are systemically combing across the Internet and
trying to get the very concept of porn and nudity banned from online.
Basically, if you've already been sharing nudes on places like Twitter, Reddit or Onlyfans,
you're probably our kind of people. And if you're kinda new to this whole thing, this could be
a good place to explore! This website was designed by a life-long nudist, exhibitionist
and software engineer to create a safe space for like-minded individuals online.
</p>
<p>
Alongside that story, there is growing uncertainty in general about the future of free
speech and "safe harbor laws" for social network service providers online. Depending on
how it shakes out, it may become risky for sites such as Twitter and Reddit to remain
online if the service providers become liable for content uploaded by their users. It seems
likely that one day Twitter and Reddit will chase NSFW users away like Tumblr did and it may
be risky for any new startups to fill that void (Onlyfans and most adult sites have switched
to requiring photo ID to verify your accounts!)
</p>
<h2>What's different about {{PrettyTitle}}</h2>
<p>
When a site has <em>random</em> unverified users able to post <em>random</em> content,
you end up with some awful things being posted - which traumatizes site moderators and
provides hooks for the anti-porn brigade that took down Tumblr to come for your site
as well. This website was designed for this modern environment, and intends to keep on
top of things from day one.
</p>
<h2>What makes this site different?</h2>
<p>
In the context of the modern Internet we live in, this site does things a bit differently:
There were three core ideas behind the creation of this website:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Only <strong>real</strong> people may join this site. No faceless, anonymous
throw-away profiles. Everyone needs a face picture on their profile and to
submit a "verification selfie" holding a sheet of paper to prove their picture
is them. You don't need to have your face and nude body together in a picture,
but a face pic as your default profile picture is mandatory.
<p>
We want to know that every member is a real human being by requiring a <strong>"Certification" photo</strong>
to be submitted to the admin.
</p>
<p>
In practice this just means you take a selfie that shows your face and you're
<a href="/faq#certification-faqs">holding a note on paper</a> that looks like the same face as you put
on your profile page (and you can even make that profile pic 'friends-only' if you want!)
</p>
</li>
<li>
Only <strong>self pictures</strong> are allowed. You must be featured in a
picture to post it. No "porn blogs" of random content you found online!
<p>
And those members will share only their own <strong>self pictures</strong> to their gallery.
</p>
<p>
You may upload up to 100 photos <small>(or GIFs!)</small> on your gallery and share them with the
whole <small>(certified)</small> site, with friends-only or keep them private to
share on a case-by-case basis with someone. You get to control who sees which pictures, and
go at your own pace on your nudist journey.
</p>
</li>
<li>
Unlike some other nudist websites, <strong>exhibitionist content</strong> is
permitted here. You are allowed to post erections, hole pics, masturbation or
sexual content (within reason - nothing illegal or grossly offensive). We only
ask that you <strong>tag your photo as explicit</strong> so that nudists who
don't want to see that stuff can filter it away. This site is "nudist friendly"
by default -- opt-in to see explicit content if you like that stuff!
<p>
And we are <strong>sex-positive</strong> here and erotic content in permitted in designated areas.
</p>
<p>
Unlike some other nudist sites that forbid <em>any</em> displays of sexuality <small>(even
something so scandalous as an erection, heavens forbid!)</small>, on {{PrettyTitle}} we know
that humans are sexual creatures <small>(and we're all consenting adults here)</small>, so feel free to show off your
horny side too if you like. Just mark those photos as 'Explicit' so that nudists who prefer not to see
that stuff don't have to!
</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2>What features does this site have?</h2>
<p>
We basically don't want any of those <strong>faceless, black profiles</strong> that plague so many other sites
that we nudists are on: the creepers who come on just to gawk at our nudes and then slide into our DMs and get all
pervy and weird on us -- when they aren't even sharing a single picture of themselves in return!
</p>
<p>
We have so far:
At the same time, {{PrettyTitle}} aims to be supportive of nudists no matter how far along they are on
their naked journey. We offer a lot of privacy controls so you can decide what parts of you
are shared with who. You could for example share faceless body shots on 'public' (certified
members only), share your face pics for 'friends only' and maybe put a dick pic on 'private'
and share those only with specific members (and you can revoke access, from one or all, at any time).
</p>
<p>
We've already watched as some of our members slowly tiptoed in to sharing nudes with us and
have since come a long way, coming out of their shell as they gained confidence and progress
on their journey into nudism.
</p>
<p>
Naturally, you must be <strong class="has-text-danger">18 years or older</strong> to sign up for this website.
</p>
<h2>Our most interesting features</h2>
<p>
Custom built around those core ideas, {{PrettyTitle}} has some unique features to
support keeping shy lurkers at bay and giving members a lot of control over how
comfortable <em>they</em> are and with whom they share their photos.
</p>
<h4>Certified, but "Shy Accounts"</h4>
<p>
So we have the Certification process, but discovered an interesting phenomenon where
some members would sign up, get certified and all, but then every single picture on
their gallery was 'friends-only' or 'private' so that they appeared to <em>most</em>
of us to look the same as a <strong>blank, faceless profile</strong>.
</p>
<p>
This site will automatically consider such people to be
<a href="/faq#shy-faqs"><strong>"Shy Accounts"</strong></a> and, while they are still
full members, some restrictions are placed on who they can contact on the site. For
example, they can not slide into the DMs of a non-shy member or see any of our photos.
Shy Accounts <strong>can</strong> freely message other shy members, send friend requests
to anybody (and then see their photos), and talk to us on the Forums.
</p>
<p>
Shy Accounts are <strong>not</strong> allowed in the <a href="#chat">webcam chat room</a>
at all: others may be on webcam there and it can be uncomfortable to have a blank, faceless
profile watching your cam.
</p>
<h4 id="chat">Webcam Chat Room</h4>
<p>
{{PrettyTitle}}'s webcam chat room was built from the ground up to support the
needs of this website <small>(while also being released as its own <a href="#open-source">open source</a> project!)</small>
</p>
<p>
Some of the interesting features of the chat room include:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
A <a href="#webcam-chat-room"><strong>Webcam Chat Room</strong></a> where you can chat, share images,
and go on camera with other website members. 'Explicit' cameras are allowed, just mark
your camera feed as such so other members might know what they're getting into!
Read more about the <a href="#webcam-chat-room">chat room</a>, below.
Blank, faceless profiles ("Shy Accounts") will not be in the room.
</li>
<li>
<strong>Forums</strong> where you can meet and converse with members of the
site around a variety of themes and topics.
</li>
<li>
A <strong>Site Photo Gallery</strong> where members may opt-in their profile gallery
photos to be seen by the whole site (or at least to their friends when they look at
the Site Gallery).
</li>
<li>
<strong>Friend Requests</strong> so you can make some new connections through this site.
You can also tag some of your photos as "Friends only" and make sure only your approved
friends can see those!
</li>
<li>
<strong>Profile pages &amp; Photo Galleries</strong>: members may upload up to 100 photos
on their page and fill out a profile with the usual details.
</li>
<li>
A <strong>Member Directory</strong> to browse and search for people on the site.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
We also have some <strong>privacy controls</strong> that members on any stage of their
nudist journey may enjoy to have some control over what they share and with whom:
</p>
You may turn on your camera and microphone and tune in to cameras shared by
other chatters.
<ul>
<li>
By default, <strong>only logged-in members</strong> can see your profile page or
photos at all. (You may opt to have a "slightly public" profile page that you could
link to from your Twitter, which reveals little information beyond your username
and profile pic).
You <em>may</em> <strong>require your viewers to also share their own video</strong> before
letting them see yours, if you mind 'lurkers' watching but not sharing theirs back.
</li>
<li>
When you upload a photo you may mark it as for <strong>"Friends only"</strong> or <strong>"Private."</strong> This way
you can limit the audience of certain pictures to only your approved friendships, or
in the case of Private photos, to specific members to whom you grant access. You may
also revoke your private photos from one or all members at once.
You <em>may</em> <strong>automatically open your viewer's camera too</strong> if they are
sharing. Coupled with the previous option, when they open your cam you'll also see their
video too automatically.
</li>
<li>
If you are concerned about unsolicited messages by randoms, you may limit <strong>who is allowed
to slide into your DMs</strong> to "Friends only" or even to "Nobody." People may always reply to
messages that you send them first, but if they haven't contacted you before, you can prevent
them from doing so. "Nobody" is like having your DMs closed but you can still continue conversations
you had open already.
You can <strong>boot people off your camera</strong> if you don't want them to watch. From
then on, they won't be able to see that your cam is even still on! Being booted looks
indistinguishable to you simply turning your camera off.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
You may mark your whole profile page as "private" and then only your Friends may see its
contents. But, this will make you a "shy account" and see the next point.
</li>
<li>
Members who are <em>very</em> shy (they're Certified so the admin has seen their face,
but they keep all their photos or profile on Private so they look to others like a 'blank
profile') are considered by the site to be <a href="/faq#shy-faqs">"Shy Accounts"</a> and
they can <em>not</em> slide into your DMs if you are sharing photos on public but they are
not. They also won't see <em>any</em> of your photos (unless you are friends). See the
<a href="/faq#shy-faqs">FAQs</a> for more details.
See more on the <a href="/features#webcam-chat-room">Features</a> page.
</li>
</ul>
<h4 id="webcam-chat-room">A Webcam Chat Room</h4>
<h4>Participation is encouraged</h4>
<p>
The chat room is a completely custom-built app for {{PrettyTitle}} (and it's
<a href="#open-source">open source</a> too!)
and here are some of its features in detail:
Our ideal member is one who is boldly sharing several full-body nudes with face that could be seen by
any (logged-in) certified member on the site.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
It's a classic chat room featuring multiple public channels, Private Messages/DMs,
a list of online chatters and links to see their profile or open their webcam
if they're sharing.
</li>
<li>
You may broadcast your webcam and microphone, and other users in the
room may tune in and watch your camera.
</li>
<li>
You are permitted to get "sexual" on camera if you want. Just mark your camera
as <span class="has-text-danger">'Explicit'</span> so other chatters may know what
they're getting into before they click in.
</li>
<li>
You could have "infinite" cameras open with other chatters: as long as your
screen size and network can support it (there is no enforced limit, as it makes
no difference to my chat server how many cams you open -- the connections are
usually peer-to-peer!)
</li>
<li>
You can see who all is watching your camera, and you can "boot" somebody
off if you don't want them to watch. When booted, they will not be able to
watch again, and your camera will appear 'offline' to them so they can't
be sure you didn't simply turn your camera off.
</li>
<li>
You can 'mute' people if you no longer want to see their messages in chat
or receive any further DMs from them (and this also prevents them from
seeing your camera - like a 'boot' they won't see if your camera is even
broadcasting!)
</li>
<li>
You can upload photos (and GIFs up to 8 MB!) to share with the chat room
or over Direct Messages.
</li>
<li>
All chatters are guaranteed to be <a href="/faq#certification-faqs">"Certified"</a>
real human beings and have at least one 'public' photo on their page that you
could see. Certification is <strong>required</strong> for <em>all</em> site
features (see <a href="/faq#uncertified">what non-certified members can even do</a>)
but additionally the "certified, <a href="/faq#shy-faqs">but shy</a>" members are
not allowed in the chat room <strong>at all.</strong>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
A unique feature of the chat room are the <strong>mutual webcam options</strong>.
Some nudists feel weirded out if they are on camera and they are being watched
by some silent lurker who isn't sharing their own camera in return. On the
{{PrettyTitle}} chat room, you can opt-in to "mutual webcam" options if you like:
If you're not so bold, that's OK! There are a lot of notches of comfort zone between "Shy Accounts" and our
ideal members. Hopefully, we can be a valuable place to explore and grow no matter where you're at on
your naked journey.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
You can require your webcam viewers to first be sharing <em>their own</em>
webcam in return, before they can open yours.
</li>
<li>
You may also automatically open the viewer's webcam (if they are broadcasting)
when they click in to see your camera. This can save you a click of needing to
open the camera of the person who just opened yours.
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Who is this site for?</h2>
<p>
The <strong>most</strong> {{PrettyTitle}} of our members may be rewarded with access to exclusive features.
</p>
<p>
This site is for confident, out &amp; proud nudists and exhibitionists who aren't
afraid to include a face pic along with their nudes. If you're posting nudes on
Twitter, Reddit or Onlyfans, you're probably our kind of people.
You <strong>don't</strong> need to post nudes that include your face! Many nudists
are not comfortable with that online. But you do need at least a regular face selfie
as your default profile pic!
Check out the full <a href="/features"><strong>Features List</strong></a> for more details.
</p>
<h2>Who runs this site?</h2>
<p>
This website is run by one very passionate software engineer.
</p>
<p>
If this site brings on more moderators in the future as needs arise, the brief
profiles of everybody involved with running this site will be shown below.

under pressure and they banned all NSFW users from their platform. In 2020, Pornhub also fell victim

as well. This website was designed for this modern environment, and intends to keep on

</p>
<h2 id="whats-different">What makes this site different?</h2>
<p>
In the context of the modern Internet we live in, this site does things a bit differently:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Only <strong>real</strong> people may join this site. No faceless, anonymous
throw-away profiles. Everyone needs a face picture on their profile and to
submit a "verification selfie" holding a sheet of paper to prove their picture
is them. You don't need to have your face and nude body together in a picture,

by default -- opt-in to see explicit content if you like that stuff!
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="define-exhibitionist">What do you define as an "exhibitionist?"</h2>
<p>
"Exhibitionist" may not be the <em>best</em> word but the way I define it is
basically "sex-positive nudism," or in contrast to the common sentiment that
some nudists have that says you must "keep the sex <em>out</em> of nudism." For
example, many nudist websites don't allow pictures that contain an erect penis
at all.
</p>
<p>
I don't know a better word for it, and "sex-positive nudist" is a bit of a mouthful.
Some exhibitionists are all about getting their rocks off from being sexual in
inappropriate public places, 'flashing' poor unsuspecting strangers. This is not
what I'm about, at all! Consent is sexy, and your displays of sexuality should only
be for consenting audiences who like to see that stuff. That's why on {{PrettyTitle}},
you may upload that hot content but just mark it as 'Explicit' so others may have
some choice in whether they have to see it.
</p>
<h2 id="why-sex-positive">Why does {{PrettyTitle}} permit sexual content?</h2>
<p>
Some may find it interesting that a "nudist" website allows this stuff at all, when
so many others frown on it. It may help to describe some of my [the site founder's]
background and my own journey into nudism, and this question can be answered in
two parts:
</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>
I got started into nudism through the path of "taking nude photos and sharing them
online" and the initial goal I set out for was to "get a picture of everything I
possibly could do while naked," from doing mundane household chores to getting into
fully sexual/porn type of content. So, when I was going to build my own nudist social
network, of course it had to allow for people like me. There's a whole "sex-positive nude world"
on the Internet (we were on Tumblr, Reddit, Twitter, and everywhere) as a whole
parallel community to the anti-sex nudists ('classic nudists' or 'prudists' for shorthand).
</p>
<p>
As a nudist <em>and</em> an exhibitionist, I can behave myself fine when in the company
of 'classic nudists.' I can go to a nude resort and not be weird or inappropriate at all,
and I am 100% on the same page as you when I find it creepy and awkward when somebody at
such a place is being inappropriate. I have accounts on some 'regular naturism' sites and
post <em>only</em> my mildest nudes there. But I do feel a little constrained or like I am
walking on eggshells sometimes in that kind of environment.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Secondarily, simply for being a gay man I would not be welcomed by much of the mainstream establishment
nudist community, such as <abbr title="American Association for Nude Recreation">AANR</abbr>
in the States. <strong>Many</strong> of such nude resorts have a "no single men" policy and
they consider a gay couple to be "two single men." I understand that they want to avoid creepers
and gawkers who show up just to ogle the women, but this inherently homophobic policy that the
mainstream naturism communities holds means that, if I <strong>were</strong> to build
a 'classy' nudism site, I would be catering to people who would not even have me as a member themselves.
</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>
If you are looking for a prudist site, there are plenty of other options you can look at.
But {{PrettyTitle}} is unapologetically a sex-positive nudist site and we are all consenting
adults here who can share our naked journey with like-minded individuals online.
</p>
<p>
Keep in mind, the <strong>default</strong> website experience is that the 'explicit' content is
gated away and is opt-in to see it. Members mark their 'explicit' photos as such, and you opt-in
to see explicit photos and forums in your settings. This way we might strike a balance and be able
to support nudists from both sides of the spectrum. But if you find it uncomfortable to know that
exhibitionists even <em>exist</em> on this site, then we may not be right for you, and we wish you
good luck elsewhere.

Here is a description of some of the features of the {{PrettyTitle}} site.
</p>
<p>
At a glance we have so far (and most of these are "<a href="/faq#certification-faqs">Certification Required</a>"):
</p>
<ul>
<li>A <a href="#webcam-chat-room"><strong>Webcam Chat Room</strong></a> where you can chat, share images, and go on camera with other members.
<ul>
<li>Chat and share images with all logged-on chatters in the shared public channels or DMs.</li>
<li>Share your webcam and watch other members' webcams (open "infinite" cameras - no technical limit imposed)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Forums</strong> where you can meet and converse with members of the site around a variety of themes and topics.</li>
<li><strong>Profile Pages</strong> and a <strong>Photo Gallery</strong> where you may upload up to 100 photos and you can mark some as friends-only or private. GIFs are supported, too!
<ul>
<li>Privacy options include 'public' (any certified member can see, except <a href="/faq#shy-faqs">"Shy Accounts"</a>), for approved friends only, or 'private' for only people to whom you grant access</li>
<li>You may grant access to other members to see your private photos, and revoke access to one or all at any time.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>A <strong>Site-wide Gallery</strong> where you can discover public photos by <strong>all</strong> members who have opted to share theirs with the Site Gallery.
<ul>
<li>It is basically the news feed: your friends' new photos can appear on it too, if they are opted-in for the gallery (which is encouraged).</li>
<li>When uploading a new photo you may opt it <em>out</em> of the Site Gallery and then it will only appear on your profile page, and members would need to manually go to your page and look for it.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<strong>Friend Requests</strong> so you can make some new connections through this site.
<ul>
<li>You can also tag some of your photos as "Friends only" and make sure only your approved
friends can see those!</li>
<li>Get notified when your friends share a new picture that you're allowed to see</li>
<li>Even if you are a <a href="/faq#shy-faqs">"Shy Account"</a>, with an approved friend you can
send them DMs and see their gallery as they probably have some pics on 'friends-only' visibility
and you can see them on your Site Gallery.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Direct Messages</strong> (DMs) to chat with other members (text only, no image attachments).</li>
<li>
A <strong>Member Directory</strong> where you can browse and search for other members on the site.
</li>
<li><strong>Likes &amp; Comments</strong> on the photos and forum threads.</li>
<li><strong>Notifications</strong> to get that hit of dopamine when somebody <i class="fa fa-heart has-text-danger"></i> Liked your new pic
<ul>
<li>All notifications are on-site only: we don't spam you with any e-mails begging you to come back every day, and
yet we have a good core group of daily active users who log on every day on their own.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="#privacy"><strong>Privacy controls</strong></a> that let you:
<ul>
<li>Mark your entire profile page as 'private' so only approved friends can see it</li>
<li>Limit who can send the first DMs to you (e.g. to friends-only and then non-friends can't slide into your DMs, but they can reply if you message first)</li>
<li>Control who sees what photo between 'public', friends-only or private.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="webcam-chat-room">A Webcam Chat Room</h2>
<p>
The chat room is a completely custom-built app for {{PrettyTitle}} (and it's
<a href="/about#open-source">open source</a> too!)
and here are some of its features in detail.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
It's a classic chat room featuring multiple public channels, Private Messages/DMs,
a list of online chatters and links to see their profile or open their webcam
if they're sharing.
</li>
<li>
You may broadcast your webcam and microphone, and other users in the
room may tune in and watch your camera.
</li>
<li>
You are permitted to get "sexual" on camera if you want. Just mark your camera
as <span class="has-text-danger">'Explicit'</span> so other chatters may know what
they're getting into before they click in.
</li>
<li>
You could have "infinite" cameras open with other chatters: as long as your
screen size and network can support it (there is no enforced limit, as it makes
no difference to my chat server how many cams you open -- the connections are
usually peer-to-peer!)
</li>
<li>
You can see who all is watching your camera, and you can "boot" somebody
off if you don't want them to watch. When booted, they will not be able to
watch again, and your camera will appear 'offline' to them so they can't
be sure you didn't simply turn your camera off.
</li>
<li>
You can 'mute' people if you no longer want to see their messages in chat
or receive any further DMs from them (and this also prevents them from
seeing your camera - like a 'boot' they won't see if your camera is even
broadcasting!)
</li>
<li>
You can upload photos (and GIFs up to 8 MB!) to share with the chat room
or over Direct Messages.
</li>
<li>
All chatters are guaranteed to be <a href="/faq#certification-faqs">"Certified"</a>
real human beings and have at least one 'public' photo on their page that you
could see. Certification is <strong>required</strong> for <em>all</em> site
features (see <a href="/faq#uncertified">what non-certified members can even do</a>)
but additionally the "certified, <a href="/faq#shy-faqs">but shy</a>" members are
not allowed in the chat room <strong>at all.</strong>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
A unique feature of the chat room are the <strong>mutual webcam options</strong>.
Some nudists feel weirded out if they are on camera and they are being watched
by some silent lurker who isn't sharing their own camera in return. On the
{{PrettyTitle}} chat room, you can opt-in to "mutual webcam" options if you like:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
You can require your webcam viewers to first be sharing <em>their own</em>
webcam in return, before they can open yours.
</li>
<li>
You may also automatically open the viewer's webcam (if they are broadcasting)
when they click in to see your camera. This can save you a click of needing to
open the camera of the person who just opened yours.
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="privacy">Privacy Controls</h2>
<p>
We have some privacy features that members on any stage of their
nudist journey may enjoy to have some control over what they share and with whom:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
By default, <strong>only logged-in members</strong> can see your profile page or
photos at all. (You may opt to have a "slightly public" profile page that you could
link to from your Twitter, which reveals little information beyond your username
and profile pic).
</li>
<li>
When you upload a photo you may mark it as for <strong>"Friends only"</strong> or <strong>"Private."</strong> This way
you can limit the audience of certain pictures to only your approved friendships, or
in the case of Private photos, to specific members to whom you grant access. You may
also revoke your private photos from one or all members at once.
</li>
<li>
If you are concerned about unsolicited messages by randoms, you may limit <strong>who is allowed
to slide into your DMs</strong> to "Friends only" or even to "Nobody." People may always reply to
messages that you send them first, but if they haven't contacted you before, you can prevent
them from doing so. "Nobody" is like having your DMs closed but you can still continue conversations
you had open already.
</li>
<li>
You may mark your <strong>whole profile page as "private"</strong> and then only your Friends may see its
contents. But, this will make you a "shy account" and see the next point.
</li>
<li>
Members who are <em>very</em> shy (they're Certified so the admin has seen their face,
but they keep all their photos or profile on Private so they look to others like a 'blank
profile') are considered by the site to be <a href="/faq#shy-faqs">"Shy Accounts"</a> and
they can <em>not</em> slide into your DMs if you are sharing photos on public but they are
not. They also won't see <em>any</em> of your photos (unless you are friends). See the
<a href="/faq#shy-faqs">FAQs</a> for more details.
</li>
</ul>
