I used to really enjoy seeing the new photographs each month but am now very tired of seeing the photographs of the clothesfree crew in multiple shots. All of us who take photographs know that after you take your pictures, you select the best and disgard the rest. Instead we see way too many pictures of the same group doing the same thing. Surprisingly, many photographs submitted by members, in albums, etc., are not included in the permanent list. Perhaps this is due to legal issues but if not, why not add them INSTEAD of the INA group. Perhaps I am the only one who is tired of this but it is the main reason I keep a membership and I am thinking of not renewing because of this.

I particulary like the forum. However, one of my issues with the pictures, is that when they are posted each month as new photos. You have to go through the whole index to retrieve them. I believe there should be a way of just retrieving the new ones. I also take issue, that there are to many photos of the news casters. And also the overwhelming photos of the shots in Palm Springs.
All the best

I agree, I have only been here a VERY short time, but have noticed that it seems as though the photos of the crew are overwhelming. When someone says "the camera loves you" I dont think it translates to "lets put your photo everywhere possible". Sorry..just had to say it.
Of course with me being new, I did not know any different. Thought the photos were supposed to be of them...

I agree and dis-agree with Sunaddicted. One finds lots of photos of the CFI crew in the new photos that are posted every month and very few member submitted photos.
If every member of the forum contributed one nude photo, there would more than enough photos for CFI to post. However, the flaw with my thinking is that most members are afraid to post nude photos for the fear of being discovered and any possible repercussions that may occur because of the photo submissions.
I base some of my observations on members avatars. Some members post full frontal pictures, some post side or back nude pictures, some post facial, some use caricatures, and most have name only.
I laud those members who are confident in themselves to provide and share pictures of their enjoyment of the nudist lifestyle. I can also understand the hesitation of others to provide pictures and only share their thoughts and experiences.
Until such time as the general public accepts that nudism is not equal to sex, CFI will need to provide a dispportionate number of pictures.
Hey folks, I will submit a photo, can you?

NKID_D57 really hit the nail on the head. This may be also much of the reason why people are so very shy about socializing nude outside of the beaches or resorts.
Maybe some day we will find that niche where there will be no bad PR on nudism and it will be as accepted as the boy scouts. When that happens, our headlights will melt the snow and ice in front of us also.

Actually, most of the photos posted in the photo albums section, which you can access at the top list when going to the forum, are not used in the monthly listing. What happened to all of the great photos posted by Mr. B? You can get great photos from the Naked Bike Ride site, and there are great photos on Spanish websites of different beach races, bike rallys, etc., so photos are available. I don't object to a few photos used of the CF crew, just multiple shots of the same thing. With a digital camera, I also shoot multiple shots when I photograph something, but I only use a few, eliminating the repetitions. CF uses them in order to state every month that there are _00's of new photos just added. Why not just add 50 quality photos, or work harder to get more. A recent photo showed the crew on Haulover Beach which was at probably 3 years old. I send a new photo of Haulover to this site, every year, in January showing the growth of the monster towers adjacent to the beach. I don't know if any of these photos were used.
There are great photos on the orient beach site. Perhaps the CF crew could arrange with the Orient people to use their photos. They get new ones constantly and update them every few days.
