I don't think I'd do it again without the proper licenses & releases - even then we found we were getting submits of content that was not "amateur"
And that is the real problem. A site owner can never be sure that the images that are submitted really are submitted with the permission of the person who appears in the photo.

At the legal seminar at Internext I understand that the experts there told those present that link list owners were now likely to be held liable for the content on the sites that they linked to.

If that applies to link list owners how much more will it apply to site owners who display images sent in by faceless, nameless surfers.

Disclaimers probably won't protect you from anything and the only attorneys you should be consulting are those with a solid background in internet law as it applies to the adult area.
