About NudistStop

Welcome to NudistStop

Welcome to NudistStop

Your one stop destination for information about the

Nudist/Naturist/Clothing Optional Lifestyle.

 

We bring together some of the best best people in the world covering the international nudist/naturist scene.  Here you willl find news, opinions, reviews and a whole boat load of information about the nudist lifestyle.  We add to that information about the best products related to living as a nudist from books to clothing (yes, nudists do buy clothes) to travel and vacation destinations.  If you are long-term nudists like we are, hopefully you will appreciate our broad coverage of the nudist scene.  If you are new to nudism, we can't think of a better place to 'stick your toe in the water' than here.

We believe that family nudism is indeed a great form of recreation for the entire family, regardless of age.  We regret that some people mistakenly confuse family oriented recreational nudity with sexuality and sexual content (which it definitely is not).  For this reason, we must unfortunately require that all visitors to this site be 18 years of age or older.  If you are under 18 and want to use NudistStop to learn about nudism, we encourage you to invite your parents to visit these pages with you.  You'll all learn something fun and interesting together!

Certain portions of the site, particularly those parts that have higher amounts of nudist imagery or video content, require that you be registered and logged into the site.  If you click on a menu item and get a blank page or an access denied message, it probably just means that you need to log in as a registered user.  Registration is always free and easy to do.  If you are not already registered, you can do so at NudistStop User Registration.

Join us.  Enjoy our site.  Tell us what you think.  Help us grow.

New Web Host - Eroute.net - Faster Performance

We have been down for a couple of days while experimenting with and ultimately migrating to a new web hosting company.  We have been hosted on GoDaddy for the last couple of years and there are some problems with the way their servers are configured when it comes to running a large (we have over 22,000 pages of content on this site) Drupal based site (NudistStop is a Drupal based website).  It finally got so bad that I had to hold my breath, take a big dive and figure out if we could get better performances out of another web hosting company.

I moved the site over to Eroute.net, got everything configured up correctly and the results are in ... the site runs MUCH faster.  If you have been the unfortunate recipient of the lovely "Internal Server Error 500" on the old NudistStop site, hopefully such will be a thing of the past.  Pageloads of the main page that took ridiculously long times, now are delivered pretty consistently in the 3 second range (there is an awful lot of stuff on the main page to deliver).

I have used Eroute.net in years past and they are a good, reliable company with good prices and excellent support.  If you are in the market for webhosting, particularly Drupal web hosting, I can strongly recommend them.

And here is to an improved hosting experience for NudistStop into the future!

Nudely yours,

NudistStop

 

UPDATE: 8/9/2011 - This was originally posted on 7/21 and now we have been running almost three weeks on the new host/server and I am happy to report that performance has been flawless and consistently fast.  Why it took so long to take the dive and finally get off GoDaddy I'll never know, but I am glad we finally did.  In all fairness to GoDaddy, I did replace some of the views which were running slowly with custom scripts that speeded things up considerably, but GoDaddy still had some server settings they would not change that made Drupal choke on a regular basis.  So they lost the business as a result.

Site Offline Apologies

June 7, 2010

Anyone who has tried to access the site for the last few days has found the site to be offline.  Something in the Drupal environment that runs the site has been sucking up enormous resources and our hosting company disabled our database until it could be fixed.  On top of that, our lead developer had to leave town for several days for personal reasons.

As of this time we have not been able to replicate the problem reported by our hosting service, but it appears that the problem has something to do with the way the site is indexed for searches.  As a result, we have disabled the search function until we are able to diagnose and correct the problem.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your continued support of NudistStop.

About Our Content Directories

If you look at the left hand navigation bar, you will notice that there are 4 menus to help you find content on the site: Content Menu, Directory Categories, International Menu and Product Menu .  Though they may seem to be redundant at first glance, there is relatively little duplication across the menus.  This section will describe the purpose and function of each of the menus.

 > About Tags

Individual content pages are classified on NudistStop using tags that assign the content to various categories.  Most tags are assigned automatically as the content is fed into the site.  In addition, tags are manually assigned from time to time to add specific content pages to specific categories.

On each content page, the tags are displayed at the bottom of the page.  For example, the tag "About NudistStop" can be found at the bottom of this page.  Clicking on any tag will bring up a list of all content pages that have that particular tag.  All of our content menus essentially bring up content pages based on their tags.  Content pages can have multiple tags, and so they may appear in multiple categories.

Content Menu

The content menu identifies content from blogs and content that is entered into the site by our editors.  Content is broken out by media type, by organization if it is associated with a nudist organization, by subject matter and by blog authors.

 > About Blog Authors

We have identified some of the best and most prolific nudist bloggers on the internet and have included their syndicated (rss) content feeds.  Every content page that comes in via a feed, has a link at the bottom called "Original Article" that leads to the full article at the orginal website.  We encourage our users to visit these nudist bloggers - they have much more content available on their blogs than we are able to preview here and your support helps them continue to provide a vital and important service to the nudist community worldwide.

 > About Registration

Some pages include heavier amounts of nudist imagery and/or videos with nudity.  We require that users be registered and logged in to view these pages.  Registration is also required in order to use the website's search engine.  Registration is free, however we do require that all registered users be 18 years of age or older.  If you click on a link or menu item and get a blank page or a access denied message, you can probably resolve the issue simply by logging in.

Directory Categories

The directory categories menu is essentially a replication of all of the nudist recreation links found in the DMOZ Open Directory Project.  This opens up a wide world of information about international nudist for our visitors.  In addition, it brings in a great deal of content in a wide variety of international languages.

The top categories, Organizations, Personal Pages, Places (which includes beaches and resorts) and Travel are all in english language.  All of the links in the International section lead to sites in various international languages.

International Menu

The international menu helps identify content on the site, regardless of whether it is in the Content area or the Directory area that relates to international countries and languages.  For example, to see all content that is tagged for the country France or for the language Français, simply click on the appropriate menu item.

Product Menu

Our final menu is the product menu where we offer a wide range of products of interest to nudists.  It is sometimes a little difficult to get permission to list products here because some vendors are squeamish about nudity.  However, when we explain our focus on non-sexual, family nudist recreation, it often helps them to view our site in a more positive light.  We are in negotiations with several such vendors at the moment and we hope to be able to introduce their products for your benefit in the very near future.

Nudist Quotes

Why Would They Do That

Why would anyone want to teach their children their bodies are disgusting, unacceptable and offensive to even look at? Why would anyone want to teach their children self shame, self disgust and to despise their body or any one else's body? Why would anyone set a bad example to their children by having a prejudicial bigotry against another group of people?
