2. Reposts will be deleted. Use the search engine before posting to avoid reposts.

3. This is the place for requests and "who is this"- inquiries. No individual threads.

4. Do Not Direct Link or hyperlink pics from another site or forum.

5. Thread Titles: Use the celebrities' full name, event and/or short description of pic, and date (of the pic, NOT the date you posted) in the title when starting a thread. For further info on thread titles and what the best way is to not corrupt the search, please see this thread.

PROPER: "Hayden Panettiere - 2007 Emmy Awards - Sep 16" OR "Hayden Panettiere - pink thongs in Barbados - Sep 18"

IMPROPER: "Hayden Panettiere" OR "Hayden Panettiere - Fucking AWESOME CLEAVAGE!!!!"

(You may put additional comments in the title as long as the basic info stated in the 'Proper Thread Title' above are included. If you do not know the date when the pic was taken, then don't put a date on the thread title.)

6. Do NOT use imagecodes from other people/sites. Download and Upload them on your own.

7. Pictures should be posted as clickable thumbnails, the pictures having been uploaded to an approved imagehost.

8. We prefer that HQ or UHQ pictures are posted but if you are going to post LQ or MQ or Tagged pictures you must note 'LQ' or 'MQ' or 'Tagged' in your thread title. Further to that, don't bother posting here if you're pinching pics from other sources/sites and tagging them yourself to post here, thus attracting undeserved attention to your site/blog. It won't be tolerated and you will be banned.

9. Do not post 'collection of..' pics. Or 'Mix pics...' either.

10. Video Clips go here

11. Do NOT bump old threads, unless it's for the purpose of adding new pics (see rule 2 here for further details). Otherwise, please let old threads stay where they are. Need an explanation as to why? Click here.

12. If you're posting old pics that are either a re-up of dead pics or a shoot/candids that isn't recent, please limit it to 3 threads maximum of that particular celeb per day, out of respect to those who post new pics and don't want to see their threads disapear down to page 3 within hours. For further info in this, please see this thread.

13. We have a new procedure for stickying threads. Please see this thread.

New threads dedicated to images from "social media" sites. I.E., Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, etc. will now be posted EXCLUSIVELY** in the Celebrity Extra Forum. Any such threads found in Celebrity Photos will be moved or trashed depending on staff discretion.

** An exception will be made for social media images posted as ADDS to an existing CP thread as long as the images are clearly event related. Any social media images included in the creation of an official event thread should be segregated in an ensuing post following the OP.

Tai has updated the approved single, hotlinked, and cover pics host list.

[Salty Longshanks]

Just a wee bit of a refresher, and a note to save some typing/editing time gents.

If the images you're posting are HQ, you don't need to make mention of the fact. It's assumed/expected. Only when you're posting MQ, or LQ images is that necessary. Also, it's not necessary to show the number of pics posted. If you, or another phun bro puts adds in the thread, the initial snap count will be scrubbed from the title anyway.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend guys.

Updated.

DO NOT POST PICS OF KYLIE JENNER OR ANY OTHER UNDERAGE CELEB OR FEMALE OF NOTE, WHETHER THEY ARE ALONE OR POSING WITH THE ARCHDIOCESE OF NEW YORK CITY, ETC... OR YOUR TIME OFF FROM PHUN WILL BE EXTENSIVE. IS THIS SIMPLE EDICT UNDERSTOOD? CLICK THANKS.

There is no so-called "loophole." For those of you unfamiliar with the original debate, the matter was settled once and for all in this thread: http://forum.phun.org/showthread.php?t=312208 and in fact can be found at the very beginning of the CELEB FORUM RULES right under #1 at the top of the first post.

[S-type]

Amended under-16yo rule to prohibit pictures of celebs' under-16yo children either on their own or as the focus of attention.
