I would like LQ to be very careful and mindful about non- G rated images.

I completely agree...

I know (most) of us are adults here...but I don't think that this is a forum for non G-rated pics.

I think that the thumbnails/screenshots will be a good addition to the forum. Of course with good things come some bad things as well.

Although I agree that a strict policy will come with the screenshot thing (as it should); I see the benefits outweigh a few bad apples.

The policy should be the same as for any linked images or any post - if the image appears malicious or NSFW, report it and the link will be removed.

Any option available to show text uploads in an LQ web page rather than just a standard open with / save? Or maybe they could be automatically in line with a collapsible table? While the images will open in a new tab under firefox, text will need an external application.
