For example, nearly every person on Lush has photos uploaded to this site for various uses -- wallpaper, photo albums, avatar, story covers, etc. Now unless you hold the copyright to those photos, you are breaking copyright laws by posting someone else's work on a different site without the copyright holders' permission.

I'm sure this site has received hundreds, if not thousands, of take down notices over the years for copyright infringement regarding photos.

So are certain people being a little bit hypocritical?

I might be wrong. Please put me straight if I've made a mistake.


Your avatar is a painting called 'Just A Moment Please' by Stefan Kuhn.

There's a difference between using an image as a background on a profile page or avatar, and deliberately passing off other people's written work as your own or deliberately stealing it with the intent of using it to generate money via traffic and ads.

It's a real shame. I thought we'd all put it behind us and moved on.


Ditto. I thought this was all resolved back in June.

I'm not sure how 'Lush' came off as the bad guy in this. We get a lot of criticism on the forums from members about the impartiality of the mod team when awarding RR's. It doesn't look good when a long-serving, senior moderator is the sole person to award of all of his girlfriend's six or seven RR's. We're supposed to be fair and impartial. Public perception is important.

It would be sad to see him go but it sounds like he has made up his mind.

Nicola or gav (actually, the mods probably know, too) would probably have to confirm, but I think it's just some kind of rotation.


I think the members displayed in that box are based on the number of visitors their profiles receive in a given period.

The new Seymour Duncan Chorus looks very good.


I've heard Joe Bonamassa uses one of those Seymour Duncan Catalina Chorus pedals. Not sure I could afford to drop £250 on one though, lol. I use a Corona Chorus by TC Electronics.

I was debating picking up a classic Ibanez Tube Screamer TS9 or TS808 the other day and I saw a YouTube review of a Chinese 'copy' which was actually pretty fantastic sounding. Whereas a TS9 will set you back circa £120 and a TS808 reissue about £175, I just picked up this pedal for £12 including shipping from Alibaba.com!

Just waiting on delivery now. Can't wait to plug it in and give it a go.

I'm very proud to have been the destructive force behind the shutdown of several major copyright infringing websites recently.

The two biggest scrapers of Lush content were these two and they are both down for the count after strongly-worded emails to their web hosts and domain registrars. Hopefully, they will stay that way.

Both have been removed from here being inappropriate..... but can you also remove them from Lush Ads ?


It would be exceptionally bad business practice for any online ad company to use images of girls who were underage, therefore I think it is safe to assume that they were legal. Whether or not they appeared of questionable age is now not possible to ascertain as we (the moderators and Nicola, the owner) cannot see an example. As and when the advert banner appears again, Myamibi is welcome to take a screenshot and send it Nicola for her to take a look at. If it is deemed inappropriate, she can then take the matter up with the ad company.

You don't realise how important backing up your data is until something like that happens. I learned the hard way, too.

I have several cloud storage accounts now for the essential files I couldn't afford to lose, plus I run an automated backup to external storage periodically using Synkron (free app):

http://synkron.sourceforge.net/

You just select the folders/file locations on your Mac you want to back up, then a destination (external hard drive), and a single click will do the rest for you. Has a huge array of options for tailoring the app to your specific requirements, for example, you can exclude specific file types, or choose what the app does if it comes across files you have previously deleted.

Worth checking out as a time-saver. smile

Edited. It's busted hardware


Sorry to hear that. I had a logic board replaced in my MacBook Pro a while back and it cost me £400+

Downside of owning any Apple product.

Did you mean 'How about a couple's profile setting?'

Can you give an example of how a 'couple' profile would be different to a regular profile? What additional functionality would be required?

faster verification

when moderator makes small corrections before posting, I would like to easily correct my master. but not being able to cut and paste off lush renders that all but impossible.


The verification time of your last story was five days, probably because the queue is so busy at the moment, but the two previous to that were approved in 19 minutes and 18 minutes from when you submitted them. That's a record.

As for copying from Lush to update your master copy, you can still go into the story edit screen and copy it from there. You can also download a complete copy of all of your Lush stories in a zip file by clicking the following symbol on the top right-hand corner of your story list page.

To be able to insert pics into the text of stories like in Publisher and Word. This would greatly enhance storytelling by providing immediate visualization of lovemaking and other provocative graphics. I understand we are able to insert a pic at the top of a story, but its impact becomes lost as the reader scrolls down. Please consider this suggestion and give it a priority! Thank you! Thanks to all Lush staff for all that they do!! Love to all, Andi xxxooo


Speaking just for myself, I actually hate this idea. I think it would make the stories look cheap and tacky. I wouldn't want to read any story that was filled with pictures of tits and ass. The whole point of writing is to paint the images with your words.

I would really like it if I could sign up to receive notifications for when there was a new contest entry.


Great idea. The competitions are relatively few and far between so I don't see why a notification couldn't go out globally to all members as a PM.

My initial thought was that the spaces were causing it, but it may be colons or dashes instead.


It is the colons. If you re-upload the image without the colons in the filename it should work.

(Could be to do with URL encoding. Certain characters need to be encoded/substituted for a URL to work correctly. Spaces, for example, are shown as '%20'. That is a percentage sign followed by the hex code for the ASCII space character.)

Not as many guitar lovers on Lush as I thought, lol.

I've just added a Digitech Polara to my pedal board and I absolutely love it.

Commit additional resources to better maintain servers and other equipment from going down and bouncing members from chat rooms and other conversations for no reason..!!


It costs a lot of money to keep a website like this up and running. It survives on the money generated from things like ad revenue and membership fees. If you enjoy Lush so much, perhaps you would be willing to show your support and purchase a premium membership?

Every little helps.

Would the story involve someone having a fling?


Extra points for avoiding the obvious 'tossing the caber', lol.

He was probably talking about those rippling abs.
