My use of the term "Tiny Tot" was to cover young children.
Don't know the age range but 18 is probably the upper limit.
There are concerned parents who worry about their kids and what they see on the internet.
Can't fault them for their concerns. I don't like the folks who use these concerns as a springboard to fame.

Well if Renderosity is flodded with kids it's more than understandable that the rules are as they are. But even kids are potential customers. If they beg their parents, and kids do.
I guess the parents would buy what the kids want. So i can understand that it would be a shame to loose the huge amount of money parents spend on their kids.
Money is money after all :)

But with all the revealing clothes and sexy underwear in the vendors, it was my impression that Renderosity was not a place for children. Im actually surprised that people below 18 is allowed here at all.

Not sure that the Prudery will be fixable here in the US, maybe 20 or 10 years ago but not now.
The pendulum is swinging back the other way. In the 50's people were more optimistic about science but now its a different story. Too many busybodies and Folks that want control here.

Control... strange that worldwide politicians havn't learned yet that people can't be controlled.
The more politicians try to control people the worse things get.
But unfortunately our terrible government lead by the fascist Anders Fogh Rasmussen throughout the last 7 years is control freaks too. Violence and crime has really gotten worse in the last 7 years i Denmark. The more rules and laws they make, the worse things get here.
Too bad.

Why not make a simple system where people click in their profile "I dont want to se ANY nudity at all"? And when artists upload a picture and a thumbnail, AND tag the upload nudity.
The upload SIMPLY dont show to those who has tagged their profile with the "I dont want to see ANY nudity at all" tag?

Why not make it simple? The excisting low-IQ censorship system makes fools of people.
Especially the thumbnail. They are so small that noone can see any details on them anyway.

Why should people be nude or half nude to sell non sex related items?
"

That would be good but some folks are going to not follow the rules.
You can bank on it.

True people won't follow the rules. Modertors would be unemployed if the did :)

But it would protect the kids and the prudes much better, if art tagged with "nudity" did NOT show in their browser at all.

And if prudes feel harm by seeing nudity.
WHY even show them a icon saying CONTENT ADVISORY.. DONT LOOK HERE.. NUDITY IS RIGHT BEHIND THIS ICON.

Why?

If they have selected in their Renderosity interface, "Dont show me nudity".
Why not filter all Nudity and Violence, so they dont see it?

Then the only stuff that would show in their web browser would be..
Old cars, landscapes, flowers, child photos, and soft stuff like that.

Then everyone would be happy. And the moderators would have an easier life.

Unless of course prudes are more worried about their neighbor(that ole swine) is watching it :)
