Impossible to upload images during Spanish evenings
For the past few weeks, there have been specific times when it’s impossible to upload images to Primfeed. It has happened twice this week (to my knowledge). When you try to upload a photo for a post, it gets stuck loadingmaking no progress and eventually, the image just disappears. This happens while other users are successfully uploading their posts, so I’m not sure what might be causing the error. I’ve asked others, and they are experiencing the same issue.
A thought on the Policy on AI use in primfeed.
To whom it may concern, I'm just writing to give my feed back on the the current rules for AI use in primfeed. At current, sellers are allowed to use AI to advertise their products but users are not allowed to for their pics. In all honesty, I think this is backwards. Sellers should not be allowed to use AI because it misrepresents the product they are selling. This is VERY critical because the texture, shape, color and build of the object are an intrinsic part of what sells a product. I had a friend that bought something based on the advertisement of the product inworld and the actual item did not look like the image. I've even had the same thing happen to me already where critical details like the panty straps were actually missing on the mesh but shown in image. It was more of a strapless crotch cover than it was a panty. These very small details are super important. As a person that deals with 3d modeling, so much lazy work can be hidden with Ai and can disappoint when the actual model is seen. Polygon smoothness, polygon count, visible geometry edges, bad texture mapping etc. All are things that AI hides. Even worse it can add a look that the real model may not have like details to a texture map that are not actually there. same goes for lighting, specular highlights and the like. Now, although I don't use Ai in my posts, I'm not against the use of AI at all. Like I think advertising for a party or an event is fine so long as it's not misrepresenting the actual look of the venue. As for personal accounts I think creators should have the freedom to use mild Ai for backgrounds, pose corrections, lighting corrections etc. So long as it just doesn't look like a straight ai render. As a thought, maybe have a feature on submissions that use AI where they can post the original shot. Sort of like a little meta data image so if people want to see the original they can click a button and see it. This way the art shines first but still shows SL as it's base. OR Have a completely different gallery for AI. OR An AI filter and let the people decide if they want to see it or not. I think there are options here. People want to create in what ever their capacity is. Some like traditional and some like new technology. I'm sure there are more considerations to be had, but letting sellers use Ai definitely is not it, cause money is involved. People are paying for what is advertised and not getting what was advertised. That's bad in EVERY book. Thank you for your time in reading this and I hope it inspires more thought on the matter for Primfeed rules. Best, Icon Allen
The AI Debate.
This is not really a request but more a note of caution regarding the AI moderation. Recently there have been a spate of posts and comments about whether AI should be allowed or not and every variation in between. Personally I am not a fan of AI with the possible exception of AI generated background but where the principal character is recognizable as a Second Life avatar. That is one debate but not the one that I want to focus on. Recently I have read and heard complaints from SL photographers both professional and hobby photographers who have had there pictures either rejected as being AI assisted or have had their accounts suspended. Often no AI has been used but they have been put through various picture software such as Photoshop, Gimp etc, etc. This is to me and to so many others artistic freedom and should in my view and of others be encouraged and certainly is no grounds for suspending accounts and rejecting pictures. I also know of many accounts who use AI a lot and have been let through the net. This inconsistency on making arbitrary decisions whether by the mark one eyeball or with a bot is hurting the Primfeed’ reputation. It is something that really needs addressing and as a matter of urgency. When Primfeed first came to light it was promoted as an alternative and dedicated SL picture/photo repository and had what can only be described as a meteoric rise, and grew rapidly. It came at a time when Flickr was having ants in its pants about Second Life photography and what was acceptable or not and the rise was in part due to this reason. And now it seems the Primfeed is acting in exactly the same way. I note with interest that Flickr are now more accommodating and that other photographic repositories dedicated to Second Life are starting to emerge. If this is not addressed, I can see a situation where that meteoric rise could turn into the equivalent descent as content producers switch off from Primfeed in search of a more reasonable provider for their works. Remember also, that we pay subscriptions to Primfeed. And in the words of Richard Branson, the ‘Customer is King’. Sincerely Crash Landers - Photographer (No AI used) .
Slurl Bug Again - Long String
Last time I made a post about this, I made the mistake of making it a feature request. No one replied to my post from admin that it had been fixed. I had to see other people’s posts that the slurl had gone back to working and not showing “location”. Well today, the slurl says location. When I share my post to discord, it shows a very long string of letters and numbers, which wipes out all the info in my post preview. Please fix this asap. Now I have to manually upload my image and paste in the information on discord.
Question, about uploading.
I’m 100% within the MB and Length, but i been hour glassing for over 15 mins trying to post a video, this has been happening for a bit now, and from what i gather from FB i am not the only one with this issue, is there a problem going on that’s not posted?
Delete old notifications
I’ve always wanted to know when primfeed will allow users to wipe out and clean your notifications. Like on SL when you no longer want to see someones name inside a inbox you click clear notifications. It sort of drives me insane that there is no ability to do that on primfeed yet. I’d love it to be a thing a primfeed. Where you have the option to delete one by one or delete all notifications.
Embedded HTML
Now, hear me out on an idea. Perhaps you can create an embedded HTML coding so those of us whom have blog sites, can embed an image from primfeed. Flickr as of now is having nothing but issues (surprise) for months and photos are not being embedded, hence bloggers with Blogs have to end up paying for storage space to upload their photos. Just a thought, maybe make it a pro user utilization only. I’ve included photo examples of flickr/blog embedded html codings for reference
Add the ability to request collaborations for videos and photos.
Add the ability to put out a collaboration ping, for people who make vidoes or photo. So they can click it or do whatever, to say they want to be a part of said Collab. And on top of that, add the ability when creating this ping. To allow you to explain for what and how many people are needed.
Video Playing Issue
Whenever I try to play my video from the feed, it will play and then stop immediately. It plays thoroughly when I view it from my gallery and click to watch it though. My friend has also tried from their end as well and says it’s the same.
Autofill for some posts
As a blogger it would be nice if there was a feature save and toggle post description. Would be nice to not have to copy paste for every blog post, while keeping non blog post description free.
Feature Suggestion: More Creative Control Over Profile Aesthetics 🎨
It would be amazing to have more customization options on Primfeed, especially when it comes to colors and overall aesthetics! The ability to customize text colors, fonts, background colors, accent colors, and other visual elements would make profiles feel much more personal and unique. A little more creative freedom would allow users to better express their individual styles, coordinate their profiles with their personal brands, and create more cohesive, visually appealing feeds. Primfeed already has so much potential, and adding more aesthetic customization options would make the experience even better for creators and users who love personalizing their spaces! ♡
Suggestions to improve Albums: rearrange, select, and pin.
It would be SO helpful to have the ability to pin a photo to an album, rearrange photos within an album, and select either all photos or individual photos from a multi image post to add to an album!
More favorite Destinations
We need as Blogger more favorite Destinations. We can only add 3 favorite Destinations. In my point, i added 2 Stores i Blog for and my own Store. We need more favorite Destinations, i will make one for all Stores i Blog for. So just 3 aren’t enough.
Formatting fails on responding to post comment
Step 1: Make a Primfeed post Step 2: Someone makes a comment on your post Step 3: You want to format your response to their post in italics and color. The very first letter cannot be formatted. The second and other letters/numbers can be formatted. A bug or feature ? Thanks.
Ability to sort Older photos into Albums
Not sure if it has already been mentioned or not, but with the new Albums feature it would be nice to be able to go back to our older photos and sort them into the albums. I understand not wanting us to edit old posts but at least setting an option to allow us to add/remove from albums would be much appreciated. Currently it appears that Pro users can edit posts up to 90 days after creations, however if it’s older even Pro cannot. “The time to modify your post has expired. If it's not already the case, consider upgrading to Primfeed Pro to edit your post up to 90 days after its creation.”
Improve Text Posts & Social Connections
I’d love to suggest a couple of improvements that could make Primfeed feel even more complete as a social platform, particularly when it comes to conversation, community building, and discovering people beyond visual content. At the moment, Primfeed works incredibly well as a visual platform. Photos naturally receive a lot of visibility and engagement, while text-only posts can feel considerably less integrated into the overall feed experience. I think giving text posts more presence; whether through improved feed distribution, dedicated formatting, previews, or simply making them feel like a more native part of the platform could encourage more discussions, storytelling, announcements, roleplay-related content, and community interaction. The second suggestion would be expanding the way users connect with one another. Currently, following someone works very well for consuming their content, but there is a difference between following a creator and building a social connection. A system that allowed users to send a connection/friend request, or perhaps invite existing contacts from Second Life to connect on Primfeed, could make discovering and maintaining relationships much easier. This could potentially include: Better integration and visibility for text-only posts, so they can participate in the feed more naturally alongside photos. A Connect / Add Friend system, separate from Following if desired. The ability to invite existing Second Life contacts/friends to Primfeed. Better tools for discovering people you already know in-world. Continued development of private messaging, making Primfeed not only a place to publish content, but also somewhere communities can actually interact. I don’t think Primfeed needs to become “Facebook for Second Life”; its visual identity is one of its strongest qualities. But adding stronger social-networking features on top of what already exists could bridge the gap between a photo-sharing platform and a true Second Life social network. For communities, roleplay regions, event organizers, creators, clubs, and businesses, I think this could be particularly valuable because a large part of Second Life happens through conversation and relationships, not only through photography. Primfeed already has the audience and the visual side of the experience. Strengthening the social layer could make people spend more time interacting inside Primfeed, rather than using it primarily as a gallery and then moving conversations elsewhere.
Events and Flyers Gallery
I'd love to suggest adding a dedicated Events Gallery or an option for event organizers to upload promotional flyers directly to their existing event listings. Currently, Primfeed allows users to create events, but promoting those events through flyers or promotional posts requires a paid commercial account. Flyers or promotional content gets taken down on the main gallery even if it has a commercial content tag on it. As someone who co-owns a small community events venue, I find this a little limiting. We aren't a retail store, nor are we advertising products for sale. We organize social gatherings, themed events, live music, and community experiences. I understand the need for commercial accounts and advertising restrictions, but I think there should be a distinction between businesses promoting products and community venues promoting activities that bring people together. A dedicated Events Gallery could allow organizers to share flyers, event information, and upcoming activities without requiring a commercial subscription. This could also benefit Primfeed by encouraging community engagement, helping residents discover events, and giving smaller venues more visibility. I'd love to see Primfeed offer more support for the communities and creators who contribute to Second Life's social experiences.
A Fair and Consistent Approach to AI & Greenscreen Content
Dear Luke, I completely respect the choice of those who don't wish to see photographs using greenscreen or AI-generated backgrounds, and I understand that Primfeed needs rules. At the same time, I wonder whether there could be a way to respect those who do enjoy this type of creative work as well... perhaps through a simple choice or setting that allows people to decide what they wish to see. What concerns me most is consistency. AI-generated backgrounds are sold as Second Life products in-world and on the Marketplace, and we can also see examples of AI backgrounds and composited images appearing in the Public Gallery. I completely understand that the rules may still be under discussion, but I hope there can ultimately be a clear and consistent approach that applies equally to everyone. I also hope that the impact on bloggers and the creators who sponsor them can be taken into consideration. Perhaps this is something that could be put to the community through a vote or poll, so that different perspectives can be heard? You've created something with enormous potential Luke, and I genuinely believe it could become something truly magical. I would simply love to see that potential embraced in a way that gives people as much creative freedom and choice as possible. ❤️

Default rating in their account settings
I was thinking about possible ways to help with the content rating issue, and something Flickr has been doing for a long time came to mind. On Flickr, users can set a default content rating for all their posts instead of having to select it every time they upload something. In my case, for example, Moderate is always my default. When I know a post can be General, I simply change it manually. Maybe Primfeed could implement something similar — allowing each user to choose their default rating in their account settings. I think this could help prevent accidental rating mistakes and, at the same time, reduce some of the moderation workload for your team. Additionally, I’d like to suggest less restrictive content ratings and more consideration of the actual context of an image. For example, I find it difficult to understand why a casual photo of me and my friends at a swimming pool should automatically be considered Moderate simply because we’re wearing swim briefs. There is nothing inherently sexual about that context. In my country, we have a saying: “If you don’t want to see the stars, don’t look at the sky.” I don’t know how large the portion of the community that feels uncomfortable with this kind of content actually is, but I do know that a significant part of the SL community sees swimwear, underwear, and the human body very naturally and enjoys expressing themselves that way. So perhaps the question is: should we cover the entire sky simply because some people are uncomfortable looking up and seeing the stars? I believe there’s room for a better balance — protecting people who don’t want to see certain content without unnecessarily restricting everyone else. Just an idea that I thought might be useful.
Child Avatar Account Tag With a Two-Way Filter
I’d like to see PrimFeed give users the option to designate their account as a child-avatar or child-roleplay account, with a visible tag. Once designated, those accounts would only be able to view and interact with General-rated (G) content, keeping 18+ posts off limits. For those of us who aren’t involved in child-avatar RP, there should also be an optional filter that works both ways. We wouldn’t see those accounts or related content in our feeds and recommendations, including child-avatar store items and ads. They also wouldn’t be able to view our profiles or posts, like, comment, follow, or message us. Second Life already doesn’t allow child avatars in Adult-rated regions, so I’d like to see a similar boundary here. My posts can be 18+, and I’m not comfortable with child-avatar accounts interacting with that content. Other people may feel the same way and should have the option to set that boundary too. The tag is about the avatar and the roleplay, not the person’s real age. People can enjoy their RP, and those of us who don’t want to be involved can keep it separate without having to block every account individually.
