A no contact order can also include posting items of that particular person on the internet. It sounds mundane, but the reason the no contact order extends to posting photos on the internet is to prevent any form of harassment or intimidation that may be directed at the child by posting the photos. If there is a no contact order, I would play it safe and not post any photos at all until the no contact order is lifted.
