The gallery and the marketplace have two different sets of TOS. In the gallery, nudity of figures that seem to be underage are not allowed, for fear of cries of child porn. However, because people make textures for all figures, including those who look underage, images are needed to show off those textures. Since this involves skin, then the images tend to be (gasp!) nude. however, thse naked images, whether of adults or otherwise, are not allowed to be the front page image of the marketplace item, and are placed as the second or third image, with the clear warning that the images may contain material that some might consider offensive. There's simply no other way to market a skin texture. It's not a case of money greasing the wheel, it's simply the only fair way to let people sell their wares.
Talking of violating TOS, however... you have twice now linked to images or sites which contain nudity, without any flag or warning within either your post or the thread itself. Please, if you're going to use a site, learn ALL of its rules before condemning people's practices.
