I visit three different Forums here, the Macintosh, the Carrara and the Painter. I think this web site is invaluable to the 3D artist and CG in general. I also find the discussions and the people involved in them have great disposition to truly help each other. I personally have never found nudity offensive if it is done in good taste. I have never seen anything that has offended me here. But I do understand that probably I have a very relaxed view on this matter and that my way of seen this is probably not shared by many. I also understand that some my find some of the ads offensive. I have been approached by people at work that have questioned me about the nature of his site, probably thinking that it was a porn site. I simply show them part of the gallery en explain what it really is all about. I believe that art. since it is the expression of the artist, can be considered offensive to some. My wife dose not like any abstract pice of art, not even the masters. Hell she doesn't even like Dali, but I respect that because she was not exposed to art when she was young. So she only understands classic paintings or photo realism. My point is that I believe that every body has the right to express them selves through art the way they choose. I also see that sex sells and a banner might entice some one to check out what's selling. I personally don't currently use poser, and I have never purchase any of this stuff but I have visited all the gallery and the nudity, although some times tacky dose not offend me. I share the point of view with others that more than offensive, it might be childish, but this just might be there target market to begin with.
