As far as me listing this as a request. A have a few questions if anyone would like to comment. I see that Nudes a Popping is still going on and that there are photos of people in the crowd. Do photographers still aggressively chase the girls in the crowd? At one point I had people all around me and security came and chased them away. Do they still do this?
Do you think anyone that is nude in the crowd got there without know too much about the event and just decided to go for it? Or are the people in the crowd current and former dancers who really are use to being nude in front of others? My experience was pretty intense. I remember it very well. I cannot believe how intense it would feel to be of college age now and attending the event knowing that all the photos and videos would be on the internet and most likely tagged back to me. Like I said above I do not think I could do it now.
If you have taken photos at nudes a Popping during the per-internet film days what did or are you going to do with the photos? What do you think will happen to old or for that matter digital photos? Do most of them just fade from existence? Again I am not asking anyone to help me find photos. I just have mixed feelings that I have never seen any of me. A few times I have thought about trying to locate my friend who took the photos. But every time I decided against it.
Anyway, hopefully this is an ok post for this forum. If not I am sorry.

I've been to NAP twice, but just the last 2 years. Nowadays I don't see anyone being photographed that doesn't want to be - there are lots of cameras around, and some people ask explicitly while others are quiet, but I haven't seen anyone getting shot who didn't want to - everyone is pretty polite now, knowing that they can shoot someone else and they don't want to either get kicked out or ruin the atmosphere.
I didn't see anyone nude who didn't want to be, or who was surprised by the attention. Some were excited, some were bored, but I didn't see anyone try to run away or duck behind a boyfriend or seem upset in any way.
I went with my girl and her friend, and the friend stripped down and has already appeared herein other people's shots - she's definitely not a stripper, but she's an exhibitionist and loved the attention! She got very horny later and I even benefited from that

Both of these girls are keepers!
I'm not saying that no-one has had a bad experience there, but I think that it's not common nowadays, and I hope that's been true for some time.
I would LOVE to see your pics, or any from former years. I hope your memories were mostly good, and still get you going, but thank you for sharing your thoughts here either way!
