The simple fact is you won't see a nude thumbnail here, whether or not you have the Nudity filter set.  This happened because enough people didn't bother to set the filter and then complained about the thumbnails showing things that weren't appropriate for either a: work or b: kids.

I realise your opinion that "Cropped and altered thumbnails are basically a deception" is valid for you but face the fact that you don't control the site and most of us just try to get by.

A lot of us have posted our reasons for cropping thumbnails.  They don't apply to you, of course, but they do apply to us.  For you to issue a blanket statement like the one I quoted is far from tolerant.  My impression, and this is MY impression of your statement, is that you want to convince every artist here that what we've been doing for years is wrong simply because you say so.

This will be my last post on this subject and I will no longer receive the e-bots about it because, patently, no-one is going to answer your question to your satisfaction.  I suggest you read the TOS for Renderosity as concerns the thumbnails.  This is why many of us crop them and why many rely on the system generated ones.
