Sorry to bust in here, since I hardly post at the forums.

For me, this is a great rule. Why? I mainly post in the C4D galleries, because I use that program to render and model clothes, hair and props for my imported Poser figures. I would like to have more people from the C4D section to see my images, because I consider them artistic nudity and would like critisism on my lighting and modeling.

But I don't get critisism, because most of them have the nuditiy filter on to avoid facing Z-cups and other tasteless shit while their 10-year-olds are playing in the back of the room. Very understandable.

That's why I think this is a good rule. People can turn off the nudity filter, and view images that they find interesting that DO contain nudity, only they have a CHOICE which is not the case when nudity is allowed in thumbnails.

I'm actually quite sick and tired of people mocking this new rule, without considering that this is an ART gallery, not a Poser community. What harm would it do to give a little, to gain considerably more. Damn, this might even get you to receive comments from talented and renowned artists that right now still have their nudity filter on!

So...end of rant. Sorry about this, just had to share my opinion. Please do understand that 95% of gallery is nude, and so are my thumbs. It will take some time to adjust, but I do believe that it's in the best interest of this versatile community and that's what really matters.

Take care,
Sabra
