Hi gallery gang, just a quick notice.When uploading images to your galleries, mind not to activate the Over 18 image notification. Some of you may mistake this as image permission use.This should only be activated in cases where your image may contain erotic or violent elements or scenarios, which is fine within reason and context. We don’t want to stifle expression after all!However, if you are activating this option for any other purpose, then you may deter people from viewing particularly pleasant and suitable images and ultimately limit your views and votes.So be sure to use this option appropriately, so you don’t miss out.Keep up the good work!
