Swapping nudes while staying anonymous: the guide

The idea: give to receive

You can only see photos after posting some. Each photo you post instantly unlocks 5 photos to discover. This keeps out pure lurkers: everyone takes part.

Every photo you discover must be rated 0 to 10 before you move on. A perfect 10/10 on one of your photos unlocks 5 bonus photos.

Elo: post better photos, see better photos

The ratings you receive change your elo, like in chess: 5/10 is neutral, 10/10 raises it, 0/10 lowers it. You are shown photos from authors close to your level first.

If your average stays low, each photo unlocks fewer discoveries. The best way to climb: good light, careful framing, originality.

Tags: optional, never blocking

You can add up to 3 tags per upload, picked from the list or your own. They help show you photos close to your taste first, but never hide a photo: anyone can come across anything.

Some tags are refused automatically: anything suggesting a minor, a stolen photo or a picture taken without someone knowing.

Staying truly anonymous

AnonShot automatically strips metadata (EXIF), including GPS location and phone model. But the picture itself can give you away. Before posting, check:

• your face or a reflection (mirror, screen, glasses);
• recognisable tattoos, moles or scars;
• the background: decor, window, mail, badge, personal items;
• notifications or names visible on a screenshot.

Consent and rules

The Exchange is for adults only. By posting you confirm you are 18 or older and the person pictured, or have their explicit consent. Any photo of a minor, stolen photo or revenge porn is forbidden and leads to a ban.

Photos go live as soon as they are posted and moderation checks them afterwards. If you see a photo that doesn't belong, the "Report" button asks for it to be removed; after three reports it is hidden until moderation decides.

What you control

Your photos have no public link and are never indexed by search engines. They are only shown to Exchange participants, one at a time. Remember that anyone can take a screenshot: only post what you are comfortable seeing shared.
