- About:
If you are tired of having to create accounts to put your pictures online this is the place for you. Just upload your pictures and name them with special keywords, and link to them from your other sites.
If you just like to randomly look at pictures online then this is also the place for you, and if you're looking for something in particular you might find it here sooner.
PictureXS, the Tiny Picture Warehouse, is an online public space for anonymous expression. It enables the creation of a collective network of pictures and names, exploring the potential value of services that neither enforce property or require identification.

- Legal:
PictureXS, the Tiny Picture Warehouse, was created by Luis Blackaller for the PLW in the Spring of 2007. The images collected in it are in no way related to the MIT, the MIT Media Laboratory, or the PLW. PictureXS does not hold copyright responsability for any of the images collected in it.

- PictureXS Public Censorship Policy:

After a series of pictures of questionable nature have been added to the PictureXS collection, it became necessary to enforce control on the content submitted by the people. It has been decided that the people will be responsible for censoring each other, and the tools for enabling the people to do so will be deployed shortly. People will be able to block from view specific regions of a picture, this way enabling people to visually express what they dislike of a picture by censoring it forever. A simple way to remove any controversial picture will be provided until the more sophisticated censorship tool is developed.
