Hmmm,
Not only photos but certain members have their own page with a link back to pbase to search for more photos.
That's interesting. From what I take out of it, polyvore is advertising that you can pick a photo out of pbase and use it.
Here is what polyvore says:
How can I get my images removed from Polyvore?
