He tries to email them to my site ( I had no idea he was a fan and he had no idea I ran the site). For some reason the email bounced the first time he tried to send it. He knew enough about the internet to do a whois so he did to see if he could find another email address to send the pics to and he finds my name. The next day he calls me into his office and asks if I run the site. I tell him yes. He tells me that he can't allow me to run the site while I work there since some of the clients of this company had websites and were big name, well known companies and they would be pissed if they found out someone affiliated with them was running a porn site. I'm sure it was BS, but he was probably scared for his job if people found out he was trying to submit pics LOL. Anyway, he fires me. I devote myself to this full time and in about 6 months was making twice what I was at my old job so it was actually a great thing he did for me.
I found out a few months after I got fired how he found out about the site and I sent him an email telling him he could just email all his porn directly if he really wanted to.
