Pics for the gallery have to be submitted and approved.

People get their pix from other sources such as google and their own pix vault.

I don't see the posting of pix in the P:M&M forum as unnecessary and excessive.

Besides the org gallery had a slew of fabulous Prince pix submitted by orgers and then Websheriff came along and demanded this and that pix be taken down in the org gallery sigh

neutral I remember the Gallery being huge (thanks in large part to BananaCologne's efforts - what happened to that guy, by the way?).
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

What I don't get is why people are allowed to post all those pics in the first place. How is it different than having all those pictures in the gallery?

shhh lol

Good question. Maybe because the org isn't hosting them and mods have no way to know which pics Prince has the legal rights to? In the case of YouTube vids vs static images, obviously videos usually have copyrighted music attached to them. Interview videos should technically be allowed, but I think the mods err on the side of safety.

^Prince doesn't care who has copyright. If he doesn't like a pic he let his people send letters. Especially before he is doing a big tour or so. That is what happened all the time on HQ.
(But in the first edition of the 21 Nights tourbook he used a scan from HQ for which he/his people didn't ask permission to the photographer.)
Formerly known as Parade @ HQ and formerly proud owner of www.paradetour.com

Pretty much it in a nutshell.
Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it.
