Any one feel "weird" about postign pics of DC??
Let me just begin by saying that I absolutely love to look at the pictures everyone post of their DC, if their is a post with baby pics I am sure to open it up. So I am not sure why I feel this way but I feel weird or apprehensive about putting DS pic on the internet. I think its because I feel like once I put it on the internet there is no taking it off, its "floating" around it the internet forever KNWIM. I ask DH how he feels and he is really not for it either.
But the thing is I woudl love, love to share DS pics with all the ladies on here. Am I weird or what, anyone else have reservations about postign Pics??
Is it possible ot post some pics on a post and then take them down???

Re: Any one feel "weird" about postign pics of DC??
no i dont feel strange posting pics i feel its no different than if my child was modelling and had all his pics posted through out stores all through America.
it is a personal choice though and if you dont feel comfortable doing it then i wouldnt.
one thing i do though is after a while i go back and delete all the pics ive posted just so they arent there for long.

That's the thing, I really want to share pics with everyone on here, just not the whole internet world.

No - but I do not post any pics of him naked where you can see his little boy parts. I have always felt weird about that...so I make sure that it is not visible at all.
I don't post pics of my neices and nephew since they aren't my children and I want to respect their privacy. I never asked my SIL about it...just decided against it from the start.

I agree. I just recently posted one pic of DD after being on this site for 6 months. I will probably go back and edit her picture out. It's tough though b/c as you said...you see all these adorable pics and want to share also. I LOVE looking at everyone's cuties!!!

Re: Any one feel "weird" about postign pics of DC??
I feel the same as you.. When i was in the pregnancy chats i was all excitted to be able to post pics.. now that i can i dont lol.. Plus my DH asked me that I do not post any pics of DD on computer. He is afraid someone will do something to pic that isnt nice and afraid of people knowing too much info about her.

This is how I feel... I know we have lurkers... Also just scared someone will save one of my pictures and do who knows what with them..
I have posted a few pics of my DS on here but then taken them down couple hours later.
I guess Im not that scared since I do post pics of him in my avatar.

I have been doing it since day one and have no worries
But you can put them up for a little while and then take them down. Just edit your original post.

Re: Any one feel "weird" about postign pics of DC??
Obviously from the amount of photos I have on the site, I don't have a problem with it.
Every so often I do go back & delete photos but in the end, you are right. Once they're posted, they are out there for anyone to claim that he's their baby on another website, etc.
I supposed you could use a small photo in your avatar if you really felt the need to share.

Re: Any one feel "weird" about postign pics of DC??
Maybe this is something that Ron could do about the pictures that we post. Some websites don't allow you to right click and save a picture. This could be something he could do on this website. At least, if someone is lurking, they can't save the pics on their computer.

I was just going to say, can't they take the option to right click off the site?
I know that alot of sites have that option.... I think its important..
I also think its everyones own personal opinion what to do, but its a sharing website.. I think it shouldn't be PUBLIC..
like the relationship board. the parenting board should be blocked..

what good ideas. Are these things that can be done? I posted pics of DD when she was a month and 2 mths old and then stopped, I got nervous with all of the lurkers and such....

There are ways around that like the "print screen" button on the keyboard.
I have no issues with posting pics. I take them off the site after a while, but I really see posting a pic as no different then someone seeing my children and myself in the grocery store or at the mall.

Re: Any one feel "weird" about postign pics of DC??
I don't have a problem with it. The way I figure it, I don't post our last name or address, so I'm really not able to be identified. If somebody copies a pic of my DD, what is going to happen? I don't see that anything can. If I'm wrong, somebody please tell me so I know to be more careful. I just never really thought twice about it.

Re: Any one feel "weird" about postign pics of DC??
I've experienced cyber-stalking first hand while pg with my DC's.
I have proof as my DH's company has software that allows you to trace hits from the company's website back to the original computer (cookies, etc) that searched. They use it for marketing to potential customers.
W/o going into too much detail he has proof that several people were looking for info on me a few months before I gave birth. In their search they clicked on one of his company's sites. If they do it again, I will persue it.
For that reason, and a few others, I have only posted pics of my DC's a couple of times and NEVER, EVER their names due to the possibility of identity theft. It has happened to people out there. One of the reasons why my IRL friends were shocked when I posted pics of them a few weeks ago.
I will never post their daycare center or where we will be at a certain place or time (unless DH is with me and it's a very large GTG)... there are way too many sickos out there and you never know who is lurking.
You can call me paranoid but after what happened several months ago you might feel the same way.

I post pictures of DS and I don't really have a problem doing it. I feel like we can't "hide" our children. I take him out in public...to me there is no difference. I dont post my address on here or his full name so I don't see there being a problem. To be honest, I am more worried about taking my baby out shopping with me these days with all these crazy people trying to steal kids out of a supermarket.

I felt the same way too, I couldn't wait. And now I don't either. I just don't like the idea of people - who I do not know - looking at my children. Creeps me out.
