I fully get the point you are making and I agree with you.
Photographers are people, and people enjoy sharing humour. I believe this photo was posted innocently in the spirit of sharing humour, not with the intent of stealing or implying ownership. Without getting into a long discussion of what UHH is and is not about, this situation almost begs the question of whether the Chit-Chat Section needs a subsection for risqué humour, as that is where I think this photo would have been posted had such a section existed.
Ultimately it is up to Admin to manage the focus and content of the various UHH sections. But I also think it is up the members to express their views on how the sections are being managed.
That said, I have no objection to the posting of this image with the caveat that the poster makes clear, as he now has, that it was not his image. But I think it could have used a better "home" than the Nude Section where the primary focus should be photographers sharing THEIR work.
I also do not want UHH to become a site simply for posting interesting photos; that is already the domain of Google Images.
