On the subject of age, in many countries (the USA being the prime, but not the only subject) societies cannot easily differentiate between nudity and sex. Just look at the film industies of the US and Europe to see what I mean, not to mention TV!
I intend to start my own forum that will deal with ONLY public (non-pro) nudity, I want to concentrate on 'real people' enjoying the 'thrill' of non-sexual nudity. Topics will feature Nudism, WNBR's, Solstice naked bikers, Tunick shoots, that sort of thing. Events like NAP have no appeal to me, these girls are just working!
I hope to call it something like 'Oh Wow I am Naked!' as that pretty much sums up what it is like to find yourself stark naked in public! I will continue to post here, as normal, but feel the need to specialize a bit!
I will (if allowed) make an announcement in the links section when it is ready, work at the moment (and the beach) may delay it a few weeks. All my stuff will be available to new forum members (free) that sign up.
If any real 'Public Nudity' contributors or fans want to join forces or help out, please PM me.
I cannot get to the beach today  , but here is an example of luck (or lack of it), this was my only chance (one frame, as my camera has no continuous shoot mood) to get the younger office girl! Talk about self censorship! 
I think she was a little shy, as she returned to lying down down ASAP after her swim and her entry into the water was so quick, I missed that too! BTW, she wore spectacles most of the time (not in these pics) and looked even sexier for it! What is it about girls with glasses?

As I mentioned in my pm to you, I fully support your efforts to start a forum of your own. However, the prospects makes me a little sad, though, too - because OCC is an internet institution now and I have always encouraged its growth in the past. I kind of don't want to lose that. You realize I have hundreds of threads here and have made a major commitment to making OCC THE forum for the types of pics you and I both enjoy. This past spring, with you on board as well as Crispus, Flanker7, Stevin6 et all, I actually felt for the first time as though all of my efforts had finally paid off, and the "exhibitionist" forum (a little misnomer there) had become what I had always envisioned it should be.
So Pedro - as you can see, I do have some mixed emotions here regarding your decision. On the one hand, your idea is not too unlike ones I have had myself from time to time in the past. On the otherhand, I worry that this might spell the beginning of the end for the exhibitionist forum at OCC I worked so hard to make what it is today.
But maybe i am overestimating your computer skills, commitment, etc to this new forum?
EDIT: Also, I did just read that you will still be posting pics here as well, so what am I worried about...
Also, how will you determine what are appropriate posts, and what are not? Its not always easy to decide what is "sexualized" or "exhibitionist" PN and what is not. You are going to find there is a big grey area, and that a lot of events fall in the cracks. Folsom Street Fair? Technology Show nudity? Theatre or performance nudity? And if you try to impose a lot of rules on posting, you may turn some people off. Anyway, not to discourage your efforts, but just so that you realize there may be no perfect solution or forum, and this one here at OCC has served folks well.
Anyway, do keep us all informed as to what is going on. And remember - WHEREVER you post your great pics, Pedro - I will BE THERE!! I will remain a huge fan of your work no matter what you decide. But to everyone else here, I for one will not be exiting OCC anytime soon. OCC's huge membership, its legion of loyal, intelligent posters, etc, etc are all things going for it few if any forums can match now or in the future.
cheers,
