There are two other issues to think about: 1) The hypocracy of the current TOS. It's perfectly fine to sell adult poses and products, but you can't upload an image using those same products? Why? Non-official reason: products bring in money, images make the site look like an "adult" site. How many times have people posted a message complaining about how their images were removed because of a TOS violation... even though they were using products found in the Marketplace? 2) "Renderosity is a porn site" reputation. The conversation goes something like this: "I sell 3d models." "Really? Where?" "Renderosity.com." (pause) "Um, is that a porn site?" "No, of course not. Why do even ask?" "Well, when I went to the Marketplace page to look for your stuff, I saw that the top selling items were naked women, lingerie products, fetish outfits." Then you have to go into a big explanation that these things are only 3d objects. And, no, I don't know why these things are so popular. Fine, I'll find another way to show my models to Grandma and my 5-year-old nephew, Timmy. --John
