The approval system does exist in CD-Media, just like it did in the older system -- I was just curious to see what would happen if we tried things differently and turned it off. We don't moderate all new threads or posts, and most members know what threads to start, and what threads not to start, so I was hoping we could get the same results with photos. For the most part, it's worked, but there are a few photos here & there that are getting close to crossing the line.
There have been many photos uploaded lately that probably don't belong on ChiefDelphi; CD-Media isn't your MySpace or personal photo gallery -- it is a photo gallery for FIRST-related robotics photos. The only exception to this is your Who-Am-I picture, which could be from a vacation, or doing something other than FIRST .. but think about the purpose it serves and like Kathie said .. do you really need another WAI photo?
I'll try to come up with something to fix these issues in the next few days. Photo approval most likely will be turned back on.
