HubMob Weekly Topic: Body art

1. 82

   Princessaposted 14 years ago

   
   
   
   Last week we broke records, it was the HubMob week with most hubs ever in the history of the HubMobs: 98 published hubs !!!
   
   A big thanks to all the HubMobsters who made the Toys HubMob possible.  A special mention to our most prolific HubMobster of the week, Simple Tim who submitted an amazing 22 hubs
   
   Simple Tim!
   
   And this week we are going to hubmob about Body Art. 
   Body art is one of the earliest forms of artistic expression known to humankind. Since very early times, body art has been used to indicate status, religious devotion and desired protection.  Nowadays body art is a form of expression; people get tattooed and pierced as a way to express their individuality.
   
   Some ideas for a body art hub this week can draw on the most common forms of body art:  tattoos and body piercings.  If you are a bit more daring you might want to try other types of body art which include scarification, branding, shaping and body painting.  Those of you not familiar with the subject might want to explore Museums & Exhibits of Body Art in your city/country, the history of body art, body art conventions and other related events calendar in your area.  Those of you with a religious interest could explore the relationship between body art and religion and tribal body art. 
   
   Whatever subject you choose for your HubMob hub this week just make sure that you are having fun writing about it; after all that is one of the basic principles of hubmobbing: to enjoy writing!
   
   To join this week's HubMob please follow the steps below:
   
   1. YOU MUST START YOUR HUB CLICKING THIS LINK.  Choose the Answer the Request green button.  Choose the MAKE A HUB ABOUT IT option. 
   
   2. Choose a relevant title for your Hub to get a good ranking in the search engines, AVOID starting your title with "Weekly HubMob"
   
   3. Include the HubMob RSS Feed in your hub: http://hubpages.com/question/24106/hubm … ew&rss
   
   4. Add the HubMob graphic to your hub so that everyone who reads it will know that it is part of the official HubMob topic of the week.
   
   5. After you publish your HubMob Hub, come back to the forum and post a link to your hub with a brief description of what you wrote about and why.  Take advantage of the free publicity!
   
   
   If you are still not sure about what is a HubMob and the benefits of taking part in one I created this guide http://hubpages.com/hub/What-is-a-HubMo … o-join-one  please feel free to come up with any questions if you have any doubts left.

    I have a question concerning adult content. I know we can't do it, but are there any rules or guidelines anywhere? 
    
    I have a picture of a woman that is showing one breast with her areola tattooed and her fingers covering her nipples.  I think it's tasteful, however, I am afraid HubPages might not like it.
    So, I left it off my hub.
    
    Any suggestions and or comments?

       I had before and after photos in my breast augmentation hub.  The photos were very medical the typical before and after pics taken but the hub was flagged, I had to unpublish it and remove the photos.  After I removed the photos the hub was accepted for publication again.

          Yes it helps Anath! I recalled reading one of  your hubs in which you describe that you had to close the first couple of hubs you had written because it was review to have adult content. That's why I thought I better ask.  Thanks for the response!

    I also wrote a hub on mastectomy, breast surgery and used some pics but I have not been flagged because the pics are not totally nude at all.
    
    So my idea is to prevent uploading these types of pics for any reason because prevention is better than cure.

       I checked out your hubs and my picture would be alone the line of the ones that you have published. However, soni2006 you've been around for a while and have 300 great hubs so chances are "Big Brother" is not watching you as closely as they are us "newbies." 
       
       So I guess I will just leave the picture off and wait until I get more hubs... As Mom use to say, "When in doubt, leave it out."

    I was absolutely convinced I had no interest at all in this week's topic, and would just have a nice breather after last week's Toy HubMob.  Then about Wednesday I got a possible idea.  Now I have about 5 ideas and a stack of reading and research.  My goal is to get 2 done by Monday. 
    
    I still have at least 4 ideas left over from the healthcare HM and the Toys HM.  I love HubMob in so many ways!

          Some are flat out scoundrels.  I got a comment to my Breast Cancer hub with a link.  Yes against the rules.  Clicking on the link or the sender name took me to a blog on big breasted women.  The woman on the opening page had breasts as big as my head.  This was when I learned that you can specify about comments in edit mode on each hub.  I decided to restrict to registered users only to eliminate the possiblity that someone might link to a malicious site.  I experienced such an event after someone hacked the site of a San Antonio business that serves those with breast cancer for compression garments, prostheses, wigs etc.  The trojan/malware disabled my Spysweeper and Kaspersky. It took a couple weeks restoring, including research and having to bypass Windows with an external hard drive.

       Interesting, and highly suspect. We can flag it for review by HubPages staff. 
       
       Official HubMob "questions" are asked by Princessa.  New topic each Monday.  The current HubMob thread is always at the top on the Hubbers Hangout forum.

    Sorry, Kids!  Work has been interfering with my hubbing the last few weeks.  I've added the hubs that have come along since my last time here.
