I have the same problem at my work (actually, I've pretty much stopped
looking at photo.net photos because of this) - I think the workaround
might be to just give them the link to the photo. For example, I can't
view your page, but I can view this link to your first photo:
http://gallery.photo.net/photo/6115807-md.jpg

So there you go - your page is categorized as nudity but the
individual photos may be fine.

Yes, censorware generally gets it wrong. One famous example was
blocking the American Cancer Society because some of their pages
use the word breast fairly often.

Here in China, all of Flickr has been blocked recently. Someone
probably posted photos there that are not acceptable to the Chinese
government.

Lets see now, Smart Filter forces you to look at Internet Porn, (and 
some other sites that it stupidly filters), at home.  Adol Filter seems 
to have started a Second World War, megalomaniacaly, attacked the still 
Mighty British Empire, and the Soviet Union, (the country with the 
largest army in the world), at the same time, and to top it all off 
declare war on the then highly isolationist, but righteously pissed off 
USA somewhat later, all the while systematically murdering 90% of the 
Jews in Europe and any other group that the Nazis thought of as 
undesirable.  So, not so much.

Now I hereby invoke Godwin's Law and declare this thread dead.

Well, it would seem then, employers are easily satisfied with pro-forma 
compliance. I've yet to see one of these filters that can prevent 
someone from getting to pornography if they really want to.

OTOH, I have seen them block innocuous sites simply because the site 
included the wrong word. And I have seen them block work related sites, 
resulting in the Network Administrator having to do extra work to bypass 
the filter for those necessary, work-related sites.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away...  Sorry wrong story.  A long 
time ago when I still wrote communications software, I was sitting at my 
desk and one of our companies salesmen called to get my assurance that a 
particular board would plug into the system bus of the Small System 
Controller, (it wouldn't the SSC was based on an IBM PC ISA bus the card 
in question was S100).  I asked why?  Apparently he'd sold a SSC with 
one of those cards and the customer was complaining that it wouldn't 
fit.  He wanted me to tell them that they were wrong.  I literally, fell 
off my chair, and after I picked myself up off the floor, told him to 
take is problem to the hardware engineering group.
