Fixer,

It will not be allowed since the New thumbnail guidelines became effective on Jan 24th.  Yours is not the only one that has been asked to modify their thumb for this reason. You may have seen some from the past before the new thumbnail guidelines were in place. As I stated, the wording was tweaked to be MORE clear but the as stated in my previous post, the meaning was the genital area and your thumb is not acceptable as is.  

I didn't say the wording wasn't "correct", I said that we would make it MORE clear so it would be easier to not mistake the meaning in that statement in the guidelines.

I apologize for the confusion in reading the meaning of that statement and the need to be exactly specific on what the "genital area" consist of when applying the guidelines to thumbnail images.
