Tony, my point is that I was and am fully aware of the range the romance/erotica genre covers (I just recently participated in a contest at renderotica, for example, where there were all types of submissions: hard core/sensual, male/female, f/f, m/m, and groups). Furthermore, my sister writes historical romances, and the contest is to honour her passion in life. Both she and I have always loved the artwork featured on them. That's the bottom line. And the final word. :)

Armorbeast, if that is in fact illegal (I wasn't aware, can anyone else confirm this?), then the contest can be modified (obviously) to NOT require a purchase of a Cimerone product, and therefore her item in free stuff would be ok. And Gina has already graciously agreed to give the winner his/her choice of 5 items from her store, so... :)

Hopefully this clears things up. :O) ***Adding this in edit: I forgot to write this earlier, but artwork must be new and not previously posted anywhere... sorry, that was in the last contest I did, and I've taken it for granted. And Cylithera: that's TRUE -- the contest I entered at renderotica required the use of one character from DTG studios, and thankfully I had one, otherwise I wouldn't have entered... so if my contest can be seen in the same light, I'd prefer it be left as is... if not, it will be modified... *** OK, here endeth the monologue. LOL
