Some of the best photos on brickshelf are (were?) spoofed ads or packages. I
wonder why someone can show splattered, blood covered bodies of minfigs in
his brickwars pages, but you may not show the LEGO logo together with
beatyful women. If I had omitted the logo, nobody would give it a close look
to search the bricks and the picture would have been removed because it was
supposed to be off-topic.
Whoever killed this file should have send a short message when he removed
it. Then I knew what the mistake was and maybe corrected it. And if it's too
much work to write a message for every killed file, because so many pictures
have to be removed, maybe the criteria are too hard. I am really afraid the
censorship is killing the community. I have to repeat this again and again.
Some of us are already thinking loudly about alternatives.

Thanks for that. I hope Brickshelf will become a cozy place for me to store
newer pictures, again.

I would prefer to be treated in justice. "Everybody is unguilty until the
opposite is proofed." Make all old files available for public, verify them
and then deny access to those that are breaking your rules. And please: Make
those rules public.
Thanks for the feedback,
