If ImageCash stopped paying users to post, would they be acceptable in your opinion?

I'm not familiar with many of the other ones the other ones that you listed, so I don't know who pays and who doesn't. But if an image host is paying for image views, then I believe they're indirectly encouraging content theft. And to further my point about ImageCash encouraging content theft, they have a an entire section reserved for adult images. I doubt content providers are posting their photosets there.
If ImageCash stopped paying out, they'd be more acceptable in my eyes as the amound of stolen content posted for the sole purpose of getting paid would drop significantly. However, until they actively try to prevent stolen content from being posted, they'll still be unacceptable in my opinion.
