no, i'm not changing.  you asked what would be clearer.  in a sentence, clearer would be something consistent with the rulings of other bodies.

That's what I said. You're saying you're unhappy with the rules. You don't want us to rephrase them, you want them to be different.

The owners of the site and the admin of the site have decided on what they want displayed, or not displayed, in thumbnails. Hence, the rules are what they are. If you can suggest some wording which you feel would more clearly explain the rules that are in place, please do.

I understand that not everybody can agree on this topic. (Me, today, personally I would like to ban every image in this gallery that features a cross-eyed model.) If there is confusion, then I will try to allay it. If you're asking for the rules to be changed, then you're more than welcome to post in the Suggestions forum.

pjz - thank you, I'm flattered, but I wouldn't be comfortable with that. Being on staff here unfortunately makes one a target for certain groups, and I would be nervous of waking up one morning to find my likeness frankensteined onto Mike's body, or dismembered in buckets, or violating a goat wearing a strap-on, or... well you get the picture. (Or not, I hope, hahaha!)

Of course if you want to create a character which is inspired by my cheery grin then please do, but if it bears a good resemblance then I would ask you not to share that morph. [Although legally I probably couldn't stop you, which is another topic entirely, but I'm sure you'd behave ethically :-) ]
