Don't mistake the intent of this, my thumbnail was pulled ages ago. I'm just making a comparision in the interest that the rules are applied fairly to all.
This image is from the original front page article showing the required clothed areas for the "new" thumbnail policy:
However, the actual description in the rules only states:
No nudity in thumbnails. This means no clothes, clothes that are transparent or blurring of nude images.
No areola or nipple exposure, and no transparent fabric.
Here is a comparison of a thumbnail I've had pulled in the past for, and I quote, "A lot more Boob then needed in the thumbnail."
Any amount of boob was too much for the specific moderator at the time. Here's another iteration that was also rejected for the same reason:
It ended up having to be changed to a headshot. That thumbnail in the marketplace shows more boob than either of the two thumbnail iterations I have presented, and both pictures unarguably expose far more than the guideline image. But I will admit, according to a narrow interpretation of the rules, only nipple & areola expposure is prohibited.
So, still I ask, why the different standard?
