Uploading backdrops result in Error NSFW Content detected
posted by Jefff_73STAFFMOD on October 14, 2024 at 2:34 AM
I've been able to upload backdrops without issues until recently, Now all I get is an Error NSFW Content Detected I am doing this through my browsers on my desktop, I've been doing it the same way for about a month without issues until this week. I am trying to edit the TV Series Naked and Afraid https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/58832-naked-and-afraid/seasons?language=en-US The images I am using and trying to upload have no nudity, All nudity is blurred out or pixelated, Yet still getting a NSFW Content Detected. Any ideas or help would be appreciated, Thanks

a) where did you get it b) its can be an official image and still be low quality (and if its low quality it should be deleted even if its an official image)

It's not low quality it's just blurred. It's also the artists' choice and the official high-quality image so it should remain.

That's just soft focus. It's a technique used in film and photography sometimes.

Do you have a direct link to the image on that site cause for some reason I cant find it on there.
Also Ive reported thousands of images across many years on this site (since like 2018) and usually 90-95% of them get deleted from my estimations. From how it looks like to me on my laptop screen it looks a tad low quality- not because its blurry but because its a bit pixelated/aterfact-y. But its not horrible so maybe a mod wouldnt delete it. So I could be wrong and maybe its good enough. but imo its low quality, but I'm not a mod so well see if they agree or disagree.
Yeah but it also looks a tad pixelated/artifact-y to me.
EDIT: wait did you edit (remove the text from) this image: https://kobis.or.kr/common/mast/movie/2013/01/dcaf27593d004b6e8d788a397a4f8ba8.jpg ?
Also notice how theres a noticeable difference in quality in between that image and yours? (often image quality decreases a bit when you upload images- the image uploaded to tmdb is often slightly lower quality than it was before uploading it- it may also be possible you did something to the image unknowingly that decreased its quality prior to uploading).

The difference is that one is cropped and thus more zoomed in, and the original isn't. The quality of the photo is still roughly the same and the image quality is high enough.

imo the difference is one is noticeably lower quality than the other, and that the uploaded one might be too low quality for the site (theres nothing wrong with cropping and thats not what I was referring to just for the record). but its up to the mods Ive already reported it.
Im not always correct so maybe it wont be deleted. (and also i do believe mods have different degrees of strictness/leniency in terms of their judgement of image quality). it might take forever though for the report to be dealt with/seen 
(Additionally I think if you look closely you can see a noticeable effect of someone making an attempt to remove the text from this iamge: https://kobis.or.kr/common/mast/movie/2013/01/dcaf27593d004b6e8d788a397a4f8ba8.jpg for example if you look closely to the left of the closed fist you can see an unnatural sharp vertical line going doing straight down against the leaves in the background)
