Exactly. If you receive pictures from "surfers" you have no idea who you are posting and if the person in the picture have given anyone permission to use that picture.

If I had a dollar for every time I got an email saying that Tawnee Fucking Stone was on some site where people can submit pictures - Hotornot.com is a good example. Every time I see my picture on some site used with my permission, I have the right to sue..... And we have in the past. (Usually we just ask to have the picture removed and it's not an issue.)

At the same time, I know of companies that run "wild girls" sites that have been sued because they are posting pictures of girls who haven't give their permission.

And then.... Let a surfer find a topless of picture of someone who "looks" underage. One phone call to a attorney general's office and you might just have a shit load of problems!
