"What's wrong with "old naked hags"??? Wheren't we all born naked (as you stated)?? Why is it that only the so-called "perfect" body has the right to be shown naked??" First off I believe art is about beauty, and so I personally won't be rendering, painting, or drawing, any "old hags" but to each their own. Secondly I was only trying to add some humor to this pixel war. Being abused as a child myself, I realize the seriousness of the whole child abuse subject, but I think you are all straying away from what this is really about. I'm sure that most of your parents probably have nude pictures of you playing in the bathtub when you were children, and I'm sure they have shown it to your friends and loved ones, and I'm also pretty sure that it never crossed their mind that it could be somehow misconstrued as being pornographic. That is one of the many points I'm trying to get across. What I still don't understand is how this topic has turned into being about abuse when I've yet to see any pictures on renderosity, or renderotica that depict ANY sort of lewdness, pornography, or abuse of children. All I'm saying is that if I want to make a texture for a nude child I should be able to do so without going to jail, or having to look over my shoulder for the angry villagers with pitchforks. Also I would like to add that I totally agree with fozzibear for saying "As far as I think, people who defile and abuse children should be branded and thrown naked into the street."

Just wanted to add that a nude render is not abuse, defilement, or anything else. It's a ( non-pornographic )picture that's all. I guess if you think about it the way some of you are then discovery channel should be banned because somebody may consider it lascivious, not to mention National Geographic magazine, and several NEWSPAPER and TV advertisments I've seen with naked baby rears in them.

Wow, all this controversy over some binary code - how utterly sad that we are all discussing the state of some electronic signals that we have manipulated, and made skins for. Naked is not porn, giving my 1 year old son a bath is not stimulating to me,( if it is to anyone else then I agree they need help ) I suppose some people think that a child nursing is CP, but I certinally don't.We are all born nude and most of us look much better nude than we do with our ratty shirts and baggy pants falling off our rears. If this was to be passed how many artists ( famous or not ) would then be considered Child Pornographers simply because they drew a nude child or teen in a natural non-lewd setting? - or drew sketches of such? Porn on the other hand - the showing of the actual acts - is disgusting and should be stopped. But, to make all people suffer a penalty because one person in a thousand got offended is rediculous. It sad when we are all so politacally correct that we feel we must bend over backwards so as not to offend even the slightest little bit any person, creature or idea. I wonder when the coaltion for the rights of roaches is going to start protesting Raid commercials?? As for the looks like children or teens thing, come on who wants to render old naked hags?? I've seen some 30 year olds that looked younger than my 7 year old. And fairys?? come on- they are mythical and almost always portrayed as nude females, how can you possibly feel that is CP, did we have some bad experiences with out fairy tale books?? And for that matter how many people have downloaded Thorne's models, and then want to complain about his work, and work derived from his work, thats hypocritical and ungrateful and if I were him I would consider pulling my work from here and giving/selling it on my own site. Seems to me some people out there saw something that made them have a errant thought and they felt guilty for having it and now must wage a holy war against the evils of colored pixils.
