Never heard of superfitness, girls of pump, michael scott. Fit Squad is long gone. The Valkyrie owner passed away some months ago and I don't think the site is up anymore. I wasn't aware that J.P. Erickson had stopped doing Athletic Women Magazine and Her Flex Appeal. I visited AWM in late winter; maybe February; and it was still up.
Remember that our moderators are volunteers with active personal lives beyond this site. Members continue to post pictures from dormant, but still up and selling stuff, paysites like WPW and Premier Productions. It may be easier to just keep a ban on paysite uploads.
Perhaps you could volunteer to do some research on the topic.
I see that you have Connie Gallo posts from AWM and Fit Squad still up.
Right, though I had a couple Min Yung Kim images deleted for "paysite" reason, even though they were from the defunct Michael-Scott. It's like, should I try again and get a different result? https://www.girlswithmuscle.com/images/thumbs... https://www.girlswithmuscle.com/images/thumbs...
Sorry you haven't had a response from management. To add , the huge site Diana the Valkyrie just went down recently. But even if a site closes, I expect they don't want a flood of pics from some defunct sites. Also licensing/copyright would still stand as pics may be still protected or can turn up later officially republished as it were.
There are undoubtedly still a lot of paysite or ex paysite sites still on here but I think the Mods aren't so bothered about most older pics, unless they are reported retrospectively eg that are from WPW. There still too many of them, strictly speaking but impossible to detect and report them all.
However for new pics posted, As you may have found, even the practice as supposed to the policy is inconsistent. Sometimes a free pay site sample pic from a certain sites (eg Premium Physiques) is allowed even after reporting it , sometimes not. It's not consistent there either.

thank you for letting me know about the Valkyrie owner passing away .I used to have a load of sweatshirts
does any one remember the video company mass muscle I think it was that some times did fantasy videos of women bodybuilders ..
by the time they did a video with Michelle Ivers I was out of money I used to have ray martin videos too
I tried loading on an image from seductive studios of the bodybuilder Serena Steel sadly it would not do it as there are not enough photos of her ..

Mass Muscle Videos is still around, they actually have 4 sites:
https://www.massmuscle.com (mostly only useful for their old catalog pages, which are sometimes more detailed than the ones on the new store sites)
https://massmusclevideos.mybigcommerce.com (lets you order full DVDs, or some full videos as digital files)
Then there's the 2 clips4sale stores-
https://www.clips4sale.com/studio/28137/mass-... (full videos)
https://www.clips4sale.com/studio/17340/mass-... (partial clips)
If you know how to rip DVDs losslessly, I'd usually recommend getting those from the mybigcommerce store for the best video quality.
For the question in the opening post, it varies. If it's a few pics from a site that's known to be long-gone, like half a decade or more, we'll often let those slide, but we still don't want a huge flood of them like PP1000 surmised.
As an example, I'd say it's too early for any stuff that went down in recent years like thevalkyrie.com or any of the sites that went down with it, since there's still a chance they could be resurrected or have their catalogs bought by another site owner (assuming everything still exists on disk).
For older stuff, you might increase the chances of them staying up by noting in the comments that the site in question is defunct, but it's still a grey area, so you don't get to complain if they get taken down.

The shirts from back in the day were from a different website/guy. I think his company was The Valkyries vs Diana the Valkyrie. They were linked from Diana the Valkyrie's site and featured similar artwork which confused me as well.
This was a good reminder that I'd been meaning to organize the images I pulled down through the Internet Archive of thevalkyries.com (the shirt site) of their shirt designs, since there was a lot of nice art in those.
I've posted all the ones I could find in decent quality here: https://www.girlswithmuscle.com/forum/thread/...
I've had a few images recently removed because they originate from paysites; however, these paysites have not been active - or even accessible - in soom time.

To be fair, not all of those site images have been taken down from my gallery. At least not yet. But why forbid these kinds of images if they'd be lost to the ether with their dead brand sites?
Unless maybe the site creators are still around and forbid their posting?
