The downside? The courts have yet to rule on the concept of image hosting and the normal innocent host exemptions, especially if the images are presented on pages with advertising or otherwise edited or grouped by software or a third party. The whole question of model releases and (in the case of porn) 2257 still sits out there as well.
But in the style of the internet, go out there and make money and hope like hell that you aren't the 0.001% of the world that gets selected for that special lawsuit or legal action.
