Is always the same, some person that has some problem with nudity want to his point of view or problem must be extended to other people that don't have problem with nudity. Renderosity is an art site, nudity has always existed in art from the begining of "homo sapiens". The art imagens in the gallery can be good, can be bad depending on the artist. In general is an amateur gallery, so don't expect to see master of masters here. Some artists are good, other are excellent, other are bad, some are talented other lack of any talent, ones are beginners other are experienced. Today I can be surrounded by muses and create a master piece, tomorrow I can have a total lack of inspiration and my image can be a mess. Anyway all those artists do the best that are able to do at the moment. I think that is a lack of respect to the artist to blame him that his work contains nudity and that this kind of images are wrong for "family friendly" site. I have no problems with nudity, but I don't go to a church and try to impose that they must be nude in the church. I have respect of what they are doing in their church and expect that they have respect what I am doing in an art gallery! Renderosity is a big site with great amount of members, the question is how representative of the membership are people that have problem with nudity? If you look at the facts you will see: 1) The most popular image in the galleries is a nude Vicky. What does it mean?, it means that most of the artists has no problem of making nude pictures. 2) For the same artist an image with nudity gets much more hits than an image without nudity. What does it mean?, it means that members who view the pictures prefer more images with nudity than without. Conclusion, the majority and silent one has no problems with nudity and enjoy , and only a screaming minority has problems trying to impose their will to the majority. Don't forget that Renderosity gave to the minority the option of nudity flag, so also the minority's point of view was taken into consideration! I belong to the majority, but I am not a silent one and I am able to scream too and very loud! End of testament.
Stupidity also evolves!
