When all that an image has got going for it is that there's a nude woman with huge breasts standing or lying there with no expression, then it's boring and prurient to me. I'd like to see better lighting, posing and composition in nudes. However, there is a nudity filter here if one chooses to use it. I don't use it because occasionally I see images with nudity that I do like. Most of the most viewed nude images look boring and banal to my eye, but there are some very good ones in there too. Anything by Toxic Angel for example, and there's one of a nude with interesting venetian blind shadows that add a certain mystery to it. I guess I'm looking for the nude to be integrated into the scene, to look purposeful in some way, rather than just stuck on a background for titillation.
