As I was lead to this post by someone else I think I have to say this and that ...: First of all I don't want to talk about the war going on at the moment in the Iraq. May it be right - may it be wrong - my opinion won't make a change to it anyway. War is war and war does have it's own laws and sense or maybe exactly the difference. But I have to say something about the people here talking about each other and before this continues to some more harsh I please you to stop being personal to each other - and I don't want to hear that "She/he started this all etc. " !! Renderosity - and some other places around the web - is a place to talk about art, 3D-programms or whatever belongs in that direction. If someone has the opinion an image about 'war belongs not to art' this is a statement - so we're here to discuss this - fine. It is normal that art is controversial and sometimes offending - this is also one thing about 'art'. You want examples ?? Read about 'Guernica' from Picasso for example. It is possible to bring the topic 'war' and 'art' together. The problem is: You're walking on a thin line by doing such a thing - but this should be the problem of the people who are trying to handle such a difficult image-topic - finally the comments at their images will show if they reach our hearts or not (in what direction however). I learned in my life that 'repect' is one of the most important things a human being should have - Respect for other people - respect for animals - respect for many things. Think about your words - not once - not twice - if necessary three or more times - and if you said something wrong - correct yourself. In a Forum you've only your written word to tell the others what you want to say - and the other person does only have his/her interpretation of what anotherone have written - this could and this does lead to misinterpretations - especially when English is not your motherlanguage. We're all artists or interested in artist - we share all the same interests here - so, work together, not against each other.
