Renderosity is in a list of sites that are being blocked from library access in Phoenix, Arizona, under a recent city statute that even the ACLU isn't sure they'll be able to stop. The reason for it is not the naked pictures, oddly enough. It is solely based on the "adult" product offerings in the marketplace (all that erotica and bondage stuffs) that the site's filters do not block even when you are not a member. Based on that, and that alone, the site is classified as an adult site. Now, before anyone says Phoenix is full of prudes, bear in mind that 90% of the people currently in Phoenix came from somewhere else in the country, and that Phoenix is used heavily as a test market because it tends to represent the general public better. The standard also lists other sites, such as renderotica, and again is based on "adult content", not nudity, per se. I only mention this to point out that the viewpoints of many artists are in the minority.
