Chrisa.. i agree. After finally seeing Your image i found nothing objectionable about it. Suggestive maybe but nothing that should have been pulled a challenge everyone look in the gallery.. i dare anyone to say that they don't find a single picture in there that they don't take offense at. that's not saying that any of the images are bad or that they should be removed.. it just says that we all have different tastes and different ideas of art and porno, and good taste. what my idea of art is not your idea of art. I hold the idea that this forum this "arena" is the poser communities. Simply because if you removed everything we have put here there would only be a few blank pages here. Nothing like it is right now. So why shouldn't it be us who decides what should stay and what should go? Management has said that they don't want to censor. Which was a fantastic departure from Willow's rule but now they are censoring (under the pressure of members or whatever.) Someone said if you can show an image to your mother and call it art then post it. I can show my mom any piece i have done (from the lifestyle images, gorean poses, Hawk's slave, and more. ) and tell her mom this is art. She may not agree but she accepts it. I haven't posted it here because i beleive it isn't nearly good enough yet. but i do feel that either the management comes up with clear concise rules regarding posting images or let the membership rule on "controversial" images as You said. This is as much our forum as it was when willow ran it. We should have the ability to rule on images. Let the majority decide. Stormrage's 2cents
