Simon Weston is no longer obviously in pain.
If it were a picture of his accident, then yes, it'd probably be off limits.
Maddie jokes are ok because it was clearly the parents that killed her. /probably

I don't think she's in pain any more either.
Terrible justification.
No really. The self righteousness of people justifying where they draw their personal 'line' is piss poor.

It's personal opinion as someone said above.
Quite a few people here don't like that image, thus they're airing their views.
I'm not sure you'd like a picture of you running away naked from bombings clearly in agony would be appreciated by yourself now, would it.

but I think you'll find that everyone's opinion has the same weight on here. Unless you think your belligerence makes you more important. Is this the white van man mentality of 'I can shout louder and thump my chest, ergo people should pay more attention to me'?

but this whole argument is bit moot considering other images on here
I think if someone posts scat porn it's crossed the line
I have no idea where the actual line is though :)

How the fuck do you know weston isn't in pain? Physical or emotional.

Weston comment: my point is that pictures of him now do not show him in pain and anguish. This rests easier with a lot of people's conscience here.

I assume by "anything" you mean images of Paedophilia, Rape, Murder, Bestiality, GBH, etc etc
or are you setting limits too?

everything or nothing.
I haven't read one single persons version of where the line is drawn that stands up.

that you will tie yourself in knots explaining to someone who was on HMS Sheffield or lost a friend in WTC et etc etc why your personal agenda for what pics are acceptable is right.
I don't think this should be rotten.com, merely that its full of self righteous hypocrites

I'm not denying people are hypocrites, but I'm not willing to be targeted as one for something I haven't done.

I don't understand any of that.

Some are hypocryties probably, yes.
I haven't posted pictures like this myself because I feel it's over the line.
I think that's what HappyToast was trying to say.
Don't have a go at those who haven't posted the images. Surely it's better to not post images such as this than to post them.

If you don't agree with that person's opinion, then the argument isn't really going to stand up very well in your eyes...
For what it's worth, my own stand point is that if anyone else is making a picture, I don't have a line to cross - everything's fair game (assuming there's no terrible event in my life I'd rather not be reminded of and it hits a raw nerve, but if that was the case, I'd avoid b3ta for a bit).
If I'm the one making the picture however, I'll take into account the way it might make other people feel, and think about the effect it might have before posting it.

some people make an image for the board as a whole, other make if for themselves, hoping someone else may find it funny.
If you're at a relative 'start' in posting on b3ta, it's often difficult to know where to begin. b3ta is well know for its 'outlandish' humour, so sometimes people jump in with both feet.
You've summed it up quite nicely there :)
