Ok, a few people have asked questions and I am goin to try and answer them. Kelderek: No, children will not blow up in tinney little atoms nor will they be warped and in need of mental health counseling for eternity. I, though, as a parent feel it is my responsibility to raise my son in the best way I know how, this means that if I feel that he shouldnt view nudity in certain ways then that is my right as a parent. Seeing a nude woman or man is, IMHO different than seeing people in sexually oriented positions and such. TOS states that you should mark images with the appropriate flags, what, might I ask is so difficult about doing that? Nevermore: Sorry to say this but you are dead wrong Nevermore, its not a two way street. The ToS is a set of rules. Rules we all agree to when we click that little button. I do have the filters checked when browsing and as such, should not have to view the images I am trying to filter. As for browsing at work, I cant and dont, no computer in a glass shop with Internet, as for school I am there from 6-12 midnight and like to read the forums, show my newly posted work to friends at school that dont have computers and so on. Merlin: Unfortunately if you have Nudity blocked and someone doesnt check the nudity in picture box, then you still see the nudity. That is what this is mainly about. Why have filters if no one is going to use them and worse off, no one cares that rules are broken. Phantast: At six, my son is hardly concerned with the Dallas Art Museum, nor would I take him there, not because of the nudity, but because Six Flags, Football and playing in the swimming pool are more his forte. As far as sheltering him from nudity? He does not get to watch sex on the tele, nor do we allow overly violent movies at our apartment. Moonbiter: First off, I havent seen daily reminders about using the flags for I am new to the forums. Second off, you said dont view it when my son is in the room, Ok, Ill send him outside or lock him in the closet as I live in a small one bedroom apartment where my computer is also in the family room. partly due to where the plug ins are and partly due to no room in the bedroom I take the time to set my filters what is censored about asking others to set their filters? Or am I wrong in asking people to follow the rules set forth by this community? Hauksdottir: Its not the fact that their is nudity here, nor is it weather I have my filters set, its that people are having thumbnails with nudes in them that are not blocked, and pictures that are not marked as having nudity in them. Graviton: While not a question, what you stated was excellent, thank you. So many people seem to think that I am against nudity. I am not. I dont have a problem with a picture of a man or a woman posed nude to convey artwork or a message sent forth by the artist. When done right, it can be truely outstanding. Oh, and I never stated I viewed it at work, I cant view it there. I view it at school during my breaks as When I am home, I would rather be working on my art cuz I have a LONG way to go I dont want to upset anyone, this isnt about infringing on anyones rights. Its about just common curtesy and clicking a button that is required by the TOS anyway to be clicked. I really dont want everyone blowing up and getting mad. I look at everyone here as mentors, people that I learn from and admire very much so. Each artist at renderosity has their own style and I love them all.
