Margo - if you go to "The Wall" on the M.I.L.C. site, and then 'see all' 
on the posts, you will find a smattering of woman who've posted with a 
"See how nice my photo is" sort of post.. and the 'blank default' is all 
you can see.  The majority of them, have no 'hit' link either, which 
suggests their account is probably frozen.  I noticed it as I had read a 
post, and then looked for it again, and found the photo gone! 

It was really obvious when the Wall page had three of them up in one 
page, less obvious as the pages move up, and others post.

There is also a post quoting Facebook has stated...

"To decide what's appropriate, the company had to decide "how much of 
someone's butt must be showing or, in this case, how much of the breast. 
We've made a visible areola the determining factor. It is a common 
standard," said spokesman Barry Schnitt."

So, if you can see areola, it's out!  Presumably, this is a search 
engine things, as many photos not displaying areola have been taken out, 
and many with areola clearly shown, are still there!

As an aside, before reading this, my hubby had posted a Spanish language 
breastfeeding promotion poster as his profile photo for today.  It has a 
full breast on show.. so, presumably, it's obscene!  Even 'tho it went 
up on billboards...

I posted some breastfeeding pics last night - found some professional pics taken at a LLL conference in 2006 - me tandem nursing my 5 yr 10 mos old boy and 2 yr 8 mos old girl while 32 weeks pregnant with my third child.  Facebook has deleted photos and frozen some people's accounts, according to Morgan Gallagher.
