Subject: Gallery thumbnail censoring

How can I set my username so that I see all the gallery thumbnails instead of this? I am not afraid of a bit of nudity or violence.

I don't think there is such a thing as "a  little bit of nudity" when it comes to the censor options. 

I too don't mind a little bit of nudity so I don't turn on the nudity filter.  However, today I went to check out the gallery since the changes and in the first page of 18  thumbnails there was a close up of a woman's butt, 2 close ups  of a woman's pubic area (one was quite suggestive), an S&M image and various naked boobs. 

There was also a cute faery/angel image that was tagged "nudity", but there wasn't any nudity in the image.  If I had the nudity filter on I'd have missed that image, which I liked enough to leave a comment.

Instead of nudity filters, they should have a 'ratings' filter.  Anything nude or violent is "R" rated, while scantly clad but no nudity could be "PG", anything else "General".  That way you can filter out based on rating and have more of a choice.

A rating system sounds like a plausible idea. I'm by no means a prude but I do resent having closeups  thrust in my face the minute I open the gallery. I recently posted an image with the figure wearing a 'sheer' 2nd skin outfit but  her nipple area is covered and she's wearing panties and received a 'nudity' warning because it 'suggested' nudity. If a rating system were in place I could have simply rated it PG without fear of it being ranked.

Well, they have that feature now of having "most recent', "most viewed or most commented" on the very first page now.  And we all know what types of images get the most views in these galleries....images that show lots of  "TPA" (I'll leave you to figure out what the letters stand for :P).  And I suspect that the reason I saw what I saw yesterday afternoon was because the nudies had the most hits and were pushed up front and centre.

I personally would prefer to have the opening page be as it was.  Showing the most recently uploaded images.  The way it is now you get hit with the "most popular" which is predominantly nudes or fetish type stuff, and you have to click another link to be able to view the rest of the images.

IMHO if people want to see the most viewed or the most commented on images, there could be a link that would take them to those areas. I personally don't care to look at images that are only 'hot" because some people felt compelled  to click on a nude image out of curiousity sake.

I too am not interested in going to the gallery and having an image of a naked woman laying spread eagled facing the camera showing off  her "stuff" like I saw yesterday afternoon,  or a thumbnail that showed nothing but the woman's pubic hair.  Nor am I interested in seeing a close up of a woman's chest while she's tied up S&M style with tight ropes. 

Yes, I know there is a nudity filter that I can use, but I am not a prude and don't mind seeing tasteful nudes, but I'd rather decid for myself what  that means, and not have it shoved in my face when I first go to the gallery. Nor do I want to see a screen of "Content Advisory" thumbs like shown above.

Since when has "suggested" nudity required the nudity warning? I was under the impression that nude meant "sans" clothing. Exposed nipples, or genitals is nudity, scantilly clad is not! That just boggles my mind!

It's all fun and games...

I did an experiment and turned on the nudity filter.  I then went back to the Poser gallery and clicked on most viewed.  Out of 18 images on the first page, only 5 thumbnails appeared (they didn't have nudity).  The second page wasn't much better, with 7 out of 18 having no nudity.  The "most comments" and "best rated" did much better though.  I guess people want to look at the nudes, they just don't like to comment or rate them!  LMAO!!!

My idea of rebooting is kicking somebody in the butt twice!
