There is a differance between child nudity and child porn. People do not post Child Porn on Renderosity. It is pretty sad that people think Nude = Porn. If that were the case, the nude people in the National Geographic Magizines would be porn. So I believe this new TOS is a step in the wrong direction! First of all, if this is because there were complaints - Ummm if you don't like nudity, don't click on the pictures with nude tabs checked! Its sickening that prudes come here - to an ART site, they see a picture marked "Nudity" and are shocked to see a nude fae or a little girl without a shirt on and they go cry about it. What is even more sad is that Renderosity does not tell them to "Grow up and get over it." Instead they give into these people who hate nudity, but try to find it anyhow just to complain. Secondly, Child Porn does mean they have to be nude. They can be fully clothed but in sexual explicite poses which would make the image offencive. If people have been posting boarderline nude child images here, then punish them, not everyone. Turtle and Heartsong, two -- very great artist and by favorties -- have posted nude child images with nothing offensive in them at all. Why are they being punished? Renderosity has forgotten not only that are we artist, but also that artistic images of nudes is not illegal - real or not, weather they are 8 or 80. They have taken a step in the wrong direction and taking away our freedom of expression. They are going to have a lot of angry members. I myself will stop posting updates to my work on this site ang do elsewhere - May I suggest Fairtytop or FairyWylde where you can post anything you want other then torture and porn.
