While you may not think so Acadia (and I don't think it was your intention), the above sentence implies that people who do nudes are unprofessional and probably better off posting on some 3rd rate XXX porn site.

So you may not have said it outright, but it does look like you're implying it.

That was NOT my intention.

I was simply trying to get my personal point of view across about how the gallery thumbnail pages (as a whole) were looking like the back pages of sex magazines.

I never ever said or implied  that the people who are creating nude images in the gallery or the old types of nude thumbnails were 3rd rate, unprofessional or anything else for that matter, and I'm very dismayed and disgusted  that you think that I had implied such a thing. My comments were confined to the appearance of the gallery thumbnail pages as a whole, not to the individual thumbnails of the artists or any artist in particular.

It's not in my nature to be malicious or intentionally hurt or malign anyone, and I'm deeply upset and rather angry that you or anyone else would even suggest that I was capable of such a thing!

Acadia, I'm not trying to be malicious or to malign you, but the fact of the matter is that your sentence can be taken as implying that the people who post the images that the thumbnails are attached to are unprofessional.

Because the person did create the "unprofessional" looking thumbnail to go with their picture, and because the thumbnail is showing part of (or all of) the image, then what's so different about the image that it isn't 'unprofessional"?

And before you get upset again, let me make it clear that I know you didn't intend that, but not everyone will, intent is notoriously difficult to get across in purely written word. So don't pitch a fit at me for pointing out how something in your post could be taken differently from what you intended.
