You will need to supply your own pictures for wholesomebot. Thankfully this is as easy as grabbing some wholesome pictures you like, and dropping them in the pictures folder. Added more pictures while the bot was running and dont want to restart the bot to use them? Just type !updateLists and the lists will then include them.
Unlike the pictures, wholesome messages are provided. There are quite a few and more are added every so often. Feel free to give suggestions to be added.
