"Renderosity is taking the same policy as the Movie Industry." You know, you could be on to something. Though federal law has nothing to do with it. The movie industry polices itself. And filmmakers are always complaining that they have no idea why one film gets an NC-17 while another gets an R. It's all subjective, and often, they aren't even given any hints about how to fix it. They just have to keep re-editing and submitting their movies until they get the rating they want. However, it might be helpful if we knew what MPAA "rating" Renderosity was supposed to have. Even PG movies have "sexual acts," so is this site supposed to be G-rated? That's the kiss of death for even a Disney movie these days, so I suspect not. Is it supposed to be R-rated? That's not what I call a family-friendly site. But IMO, that makes more sense for an artistic site, not to mention one selling S&M gear in the MP. But in that case, I would expect, to use DarkElegance's phrase, "more breathing room" for the artists. Honestly, I don't think Melory's image would be more than R-rated. As an example, "Oz," the HBO prison drama, featured far more explicit scenes (yes, including male nudity and m/m sex), and it got a TM-MA rating, which I think is the equivalent of an R. But it certainly was not porn. And it's not against "federal law."
