*One of our goals is to promote artists and show the world the wonderfully creative art work that is expressed through digital mediums. Another goal is to have consistency of the rules and presentation across all areas of our site: Galleries, Free Stuff, Tutorials, Blogs, Homepages and the MarketPlace. 

**In order to reach both these goals, we need to change the way thumbnail images appear to match the rules in the MarketPlace and the weekly newsletter. Thumbnail images across Renderosity will no longer contain nudity or graphic violence going forward

*In addition, we want to feature artists from the Art Charts in the weekly newsletter. However, since we don't allow nude thumbnails in our weekly newsletter, we can't do that until after we make this change. 

*The point was it was not listed as the ONLY reason and I have stated that numerous times

 

And the point the ptb are missing is that it should not have been a consideration to begin with, as there are filters already installed for free for users to use should they wish not to see that sort of artwork. As I already pointed out, if someone chooses not to use those filters, and then they see shiney hiney, its their own fault. If parents don't use them, and their children see some shiney hiney, again its the parents fault. 

It is not my responsibility or that of any other member too run around making sure someone elses child does't get their little hands or eyeballs on some shiney hiney, that is their parents job. And I for one do not appreciate Renderosity telling me or the other members here, that it now is our responsibility. Whats next, Rosity going to start charging us all a fee for child support payments too?

 

It was a consideration because it was one of the top complaints from the Community Survey (this past year and the year before it)by members and that is what the survey is for, to see thoughts/suggestions of members taking the survey. 
And if you want to pull that consideration out of the mix for arguements sake, there were still enough important factors involved so the decision to make the changes would have been the same.
