Thinking about posting some pics of what i got growin on but i was wondering if you guys do anything special to help with anonymity when putting them up.
Do you take out metadata and all that? Or is it not worth the hassle? Some sites like this scrub them for you when you upload. Does THCF do that?

I don't know if the site does that but I have never heard anyone talk about this before so it's probably not an issue.

Not trying to fear monger or anything but i remeber back in the day all the old fourms had big PSAs about removing exif data. always made me hesitate to post things. Maybe that is from a differnt era or more for people doing it in non-legal states. Im all legal so im not too woried, I just like to be as safe as possible

Figured as much or the net would be filled with horror stories about people getting busted right and left.

Yes, absolutely. Even on non weed forums.

By default a picture taken with a cellphone includes GPS coordinates. To turn this off in Android:
Go to camera app
Cog icon (top left)
Scroll down to option "Location tags" and turn this off
