Submitting pictures from surfers is foolish at best at worse down right dangerous. Without full 2257 documentation and a maodel release you are putting yourself in line to get sued.
For instance a couple are going along great and taking some erotic pictures of each other in private. One dumps the other who decides to get even they send the private pictures to you.
You put them on the net they get noticed and the aggrieved party goes to see their lawyer who sues you. Your defense is
"We did EVERYTHING necessary to ensure the pictures were being sent by the model"
Their reply is "You got 2257 documents and a model release?
You "No"
Them "Isn't that nomal in your industry?"
You "Yes, but it's not required in law according to a court in Georgia"
Them "So you did not do everything possible?"
Great defense, how much do you have to lose in damages?
And all the while their are lots of content providers supplying amateur pictures that can be made to look grainy or worse.
