"will you people be happy with just this banner decision?" yes "I think the banner decision is fine, although I would prefer an overall filter for nudity that affects the entire site, including banners" That was all I was asking for. "Its the larger agenda here I have a problem with, though. " What larger agenda would that be? I know i have no agenda- but was personally tired of having to apologize for certain banners when coming here. Now the banners are taken care of, i know personally 5 people i am going to recommend to come here for information in the vector and photoshop forums. Before i could not do that because of the reactions i have received in the past about certain ads. "I hope Renderosity understands this - the majority of their active members don't support this minority Puritan agenda." And you know this how? "And I hope they understand, artistic nudity is not pornography." As we hope you understand that nudity for the sake of nudity is not art. " I think you need to look at nudity divorced from the sexual content question. Like the pole dancing Vicky ads? "But big sellers such as Billy-T would have a real problem advertising their lingerie work over the banners. Yet Victoria Secret seems to have no trouble doing the same thing in Elle magazine. Do you see the real world irony here folks?!" Go to the Victoria's secret site- they do not show nipples nor do they show genital hair. "cherubs, angles, nativity scenes) on a porn site for obvious reasons. Renderotica is not the place to post your baby angel pictures. You should be able to post such innocent work, the stuff of Romanticism, Renaissance and classical art, HERE." I have never disagreed with that, but no one here really does that type of art. "seems to me some people won't be happy until some vendors are completely thrown out of the store for even daring to sell things like genital morphs" And those would be used in "...innocent work, the stuff of Romanticism, Renaissance and classical art...," how?
