She had her pictures for sale there and she appeared in some art films on Vimeo. So the question that I really meant to askearlier is if I posted her pictures that I got from tumblr and model mayhem and also posted the links to the videos on vimeo would that be considered okay?
I will post the pictures regardless, but wanted to surround them with some context and do it in one post. So posting the pictures with links to vimeo should be fine according to the rules, the question then becomes can one post the link to the model mayhem page as well since its part of the public domain, and the model herself had in the past advertised it?

Let's read Rule 15 without the last sentence and let that stand alone:
"You may not post personal information about anyone seen here. No last names! Please do not post links to a person's profile on a social networking site."
I consider Model Mayhem a social networking site because the site plainly says, "Where Professional Models Meet Model Photographers."
For years, for some reason, links were allowed to be posted (or just ignored) in the non-link sections (Photos and Movies) even though we had a separate Links section. The Links section is only accessable by paying members, so when you post a link in the Photo section, you're essentially giving something away for free, which in turn can be construed as stealing money from the site owner. I mean, why buy a membership when you can get most of the stuff for free?
