Well, I'm not staff, but I know from before they changed the thumbnail policy to not allow nudity in thumbnails, the gallery pages with the thumbnails were looking like ads found in the back of porn magazines. All you saw were tits and ass. Unless you have the nudity filter checked, there is no reason that we should be seeing the number of Renderosity "Content Advisory" thumbnails that we are seeing. The reason that there are so many even when you don't have the nudity filter checked in your options, is because some people either don't know how to make a cropped thumbnail, or just don't want to take the 1 minute that it takes to make one indicative of their actual image, so they throw up the default Renderosity one instead. Personally I think that's even more ugly than seeing a page of tits and ass. If I wanted to see pages of "Content Advisory" when I went into the gallery, I'd change my gallery options to "don't show nudity".

others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we
are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not
angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to
say." - Ghandi
