I went through the site briefly. 90% of bikini and beach pictures were taken and posted without permission of the person. This, I agree with Jeff, is offensive. There is a picture of the back of a rather overweight lady at beach section. Oh man! If I am her and know that my body is viewed freely in the internet without permission like this, I will have to track down Frances and kill him. But, I think Frances knows what he is doing, he loves all the traffic to see his pictures.

I guess it's of no consequence now but having taken a look at the "bikini" link I think I understand why he was so upset about the 5000's lack of zoom capability. In one of my posts suggesting he was overreacting I mentioned that it appeared that Nikon's choice of the 5000 configuration violated some sort of expectation of his. Perhaps it did. Go figure....

Apparently Frances signed up as a spoof person 'Lisa' and posted
hardcore porno live on the forum.

Frances clearly didn´t take these pictures himself, but ripped them
from a hardcore XXX site. There was nothing artistic about these
images, trust me.

I am not as much offended by the graphic nature of those images as
I am of the act itself. It´s childish behaviour at its worst.

I repeat: This was not the candid bikini shots you see in Frances
gallery. This post was a troll attack.

Phil: I appreciate your decision. I didn't see any of Frances' porno posts, but if it was as bad as it's been described here (not even considering the threat!), I don't think he should be allowed back, no matter what. That kind of behavior is unexcuseable. Thank you for all the time you put into running this forum.

Frances: You need help, man. It's one thing to be inconsiderate of others by posting trash, but then you have to top it off with a threat?! Get help. Really.

I've been visiting this site long enough to know one thing: Frances will be back. No matter what, he'll find a way to post again. Even it if means moving from Hawaii to another place. He is addicted to this site and particularly to the forums.

Well I saw the post this morning and my girlfriend happened to be looking over my shoulder as I was trying to show her an interesting post (not frances'). I was appauled and embarrased that someone posted such a thing. I reassured my girlfriend that this forum is clean and very informative and mature.

Well Jarrell I don't find them offensive I suppose because I would
not bother me to view them on the appropriate site however I
suppose I do find it a bit disturbing to take a photo of someone
who has no idea that they are being photographed. What I am trying
to say is that I do not really find nudes or pornography offensive
if it is kept in an appropriate and controlled environment. I would
not want my kids to see it and I would be upset if I saw someone
taking pictures of my teenage daughter without permission.

Exactly Jarrel. My girlfriend was sitting next to me. I quickly hit the back button before it loaded and explained to her this site is not like that.

Thanks Phil. I've always been uncomfortable with Frances' postings. They've always seemed to me to be a hair breadth's away from the work of a stalker.

If not been on this forum for a couple of days.

Where the pics he posted real XXX rated stuff? Did he make the photo's or were it links to adult sites?

That kind of stuff is not in it's place here.

Well my 11 year old son usually looks with me. He would have gotten his eyes full. Also my wife would have been shocked if she had walked in. There was no excuse for doing this .

The worst thing is that the photos that were posted today were downright disgusting, totally xxx pics that have no relation to photography, just to create a real stir and maybe even get Phil into a lot of trouble. And maybe even a lot of the readers of this forum.

And if it was Frances I am even more disgusted because no matter how he may think Phil 'mistreats' him, there is no point in posting highly offensive content such as it was. There are much more diplomatic ways of sorting out your problems, (although I can't really see that there was a real problem) I thought that Frances would use more sense than was used today, that's if it was truly Frances who posted them.

Yours sincerely,
Michael Offe,
South Australia.

P.S. I e-mail Phil the minute I saw them so he could remove the thread, believe me they were bad!

i would like to know who were the pictures supose to be directed to or to get back at

i dont understand if they werefor Phil chances are he may never have seen them unless one of us told him about the post

the people who saw the pictures posted were all of us the readers of the forum our family members and children

the people that frances talked to everyday are the ones who saw the pictures and to me it seems like an attack on us to risk having friends and family view filthy porn instead of the world of digital phtography that we love and have told them about a few hundred times or more

he may thought he was getting even with phil but he got us instead which i dont understand

That seems confusing, doesn't it? It did to me to. Until you realise that Frances also threatened Phil! That makes me think Frances needs some serious help. He can't be thinking straight.

I've been reading the forum long enough to realize Frances is not a well man. He suffers from rigid thinking, is self-aggrandizing and narrow-minded. Although he is a very good photographer he is rarely able to contribute meaningfully to any discussion without starting something or disparaging someone. Or both.

One thing's for certain:

When he returns, he will be instantly recognized by his atrocious spelling!!!

Of course, he is wrong. The 5000 should be able to hook up to a small 8x spotting scope or something as large as a telescope. It would be able to much better images than just a straight 990 or 995. Or simply get a D1 with a sigma 50-500 lens. Much simplier.

The photographer needs to get better though, most of the shots posted on pbase were terrible and not worth posting at all.
