@cruzin:
despite her off-proportions she still looks like 12-14 to me - and btw. I am a big manga and anime fan myself - so I am quite familiar with this art style.
Perhabs if the whole picture would be mange style, or would be part of a manga scene/context then it would adjust a bit more, but she still would look awefully young. I am no expert in hentai, but afaik most of them don't depict minors- could be wrong tough.

awwww sooooo cute :wub:
and such a beautiful tricolor (which btw. is quite uncommon and actually a kind of interesting genetic phenomenon)

ok commercial break is over - now back to the arena :D

But if one of the mods can explain what's the deal?  I'm not saying you guys can see everything but with this many views...hard to believe.  I'm working on a render for the fairy gallery so if they are bare chested is that good as long as no one else is touching her?

please use some common sense here - have a look into the galleries - per default you'll see  "what's new" , I am sure you have been there before, and perhabs you may have noticed that there are SEVERAL HUNDRED PAGES which sum up to to SEVERAL THOUSAND new pictures each and every month - and let's not forget the MILLIONS of pictures that are already uploaded - it's unavoidable that images get overseen with this amount of stuff and the size of the team (of which a lot of people voluntueer and sacrifice their sparetime for free to help), even pictures you may deem "highly visible" - for this reason the "report" button was created in the first place - so YOU too can help in a constructive way - isn't this a good thing to acknowledge?

And concerning fairies, they don't have  bonus as you hinted. It might seem, that in this category are more questionable pictures, but this lays within the very nature of this category, because most people imagine and therefore depict fairies as (ever)younglooking, petite creatures.
Concering your WIP: she can be barechested as long as she is does not appear underaged; additionaly she is of course allowed to be touched but not in genital area or on her breast other then covering (see TOS - it's actually quite explicitly described). If you have any doubts or questions as it is the case now, then you and everybody else is welcome to contact us and we will seriously work we with you to achieve a solution which is confortable for both sides - we always tell and emphasize this to members, because naturally we too prefer, as CrimsonDesire wished for**, ** a constructive dialog in order to avoid bad feelings...

Congrats to the winners !! Some cool work here!

actually I posted this contest already some time ago, but never mind :)

Congrats to all the winners and good luck for the next time to all the other participants !
It was a real pleasure to browse through all these great pictures!

ya elfwood is a great site - was one the first big galleries I found in the www, and the entry test took more then one time to pass :)
I personally find this test hard but correct - it should avoid a lot of complications from the start. Also the preapproving system has it's advantages (although i think it would not be realizable at Rendo because of the amount), but depsite the strict hanling there afaik there is no such ranting like here -  they just accept the judgement of their handlers.
btw. epilogou is quite similar in that matter (as I already mentioned in primaltrucks venting-thread)

@Khai
did you upload only one pic ? then I know why it's not  public yet because you have to have at least 4 pics in your gallery before it actually "opens"

According to Disney, Mickey Mouse is some 60 year old Rodent - pretty good plastic surgery if you ask me ;) Although if you ask me, I wouldn't want to see Mickey Mouse nudie either LOL

:lol: nice play of words !!

@jevans69:
THX I already can feel how it takes effect - I start to feel more an more relaxed.... siiiigh
Thank you very much - your picture is very much appreciated for it gave me quite a laugh - I really needed that - you saved my day buddy :D !!

oh and Jack, while you are at it, could you bring me some tranquilizer please ;D
btw. popcorn is a good idea indeed - have to test my new popcorn machine :)

Everybody in enrighted and encouraged to their opinion and so am I, but why are you guys always mix facts with opinions, guesswork and twisted half-trues? Start learning to argument based on facts (called reasoning) and not on individual experiences and opinion that might be in contrast with the rest of the world. Leave senseless destrucitve blaming behind and make productive  suggestion of improvements - as I do! I also like quite some things not about this site here, but what I do, is I tell them in a neutral way what problem there is, why I think it is a problem (note "I" - this is subjective matter - and I am aware of it, and I don't think the whole world revolves around me and I learned to cope with it), and then - and now comes the most important part - I make suggestions, give ideas,hints and inspiration on how to solve  this matter. Of course I also express my anger and concern to e.g. speed things up BUT in a civil, mature and unpersonal way AND my focus and main goal is always to find the SOLUTION!
Here a little example: you buy a car which is real lemon, but statistics show that this car is actually quite reliable - then the owner of that lemon is very much is angry and starts ranting about how bad this car company's cars are when in fact his experience was an exception. So he needs to put his experience into the whole context! He is entitled to be angry (and compensation in this case), but not to defame the company!

some points:
1.) this might bruise some egos here BUT when a TOS Violation letter is sent out then this is standard form! So noone is harrased more then someone else!
2.) These letters are in no way personal nor do they judge the work technically, artistically or in any other way - they just state the fact that an TOS violation has occured - so why do you always take it personally???
3.) Why do you always kill the messengers? That's absolutely UNFAIR! We only do our job as good and torough as possible, trying to apply and enforce the rules and procedures the company gave us.
4.) when TOS letters are sent then this is never done on the judgement/opinion of one single staff member but on the consensus of at least half a dozen staff members - so the results should be consequent and equal.
5.) when a child nudity violation we NEVER accused anybody of doing child porn in any way - that's the sole and subjective impression (or perhabs bad conscience?) of this guys complaing in that way - so I really can't understand how they get this idea - also see point 2.)
we actually often say it is a pity that a picture has to go because it is good or something fresh BUT if it is against the TOS then we have follow procedure
6.) this is a private site allowing you to post your images for free IF you follow the owners rules -
this is not a public place where you can enforce and enttitle to govermantaly laws ! When you visit a friend and he denies you the entry of his bedroom, then you have to accept it, even if you think he is prude or wrong or whatever - but it is his decision to make!

So I hope this little insight helps you understand the processes here at Rendo

oh and ignis:

Quote - And no, you guys dont educate anyone about the child nudity guidelines. Ive read the rules themselves and they are quite vague (not to mention nearly impossible to locate, esp to someone who is new) There is too much room for error and admin/mod opinions. On the other hand, making no nude aiko across the board would be much more simple methinks... and would also leave no room for error.

The TOS named clearly "Terms of Service" containing the child nudity guidelines is directly on the front page - how much easier can we locate - please make a valid realizable suggestion to solve this matter!
WHAT in these rules is vague? Which points needs clarification on what ??? That's what the staff needs to know in order to change something for the better?

and to prevent some people specualting I am telling this only because I am a staff member: here some points you might consider:

• I am a mere coordinator - I have no special rights and no priviliges - I am just a voluntary helper, because I think Rendo is awesome place which can be improved even more, and I thinkI I can help with that
• I am no friend of the child nudity guide line myself; when it was announced I was one of the members crying out loudest BUT I accepted&ackowledged that this is not an judgement but just a rule the sites owner likes to have realized. When I have something which I can't post here then i post it on my private homepage or other galleries and often vice versa.
• There a lot of other big and good galleries with their own restrictions but they might be different from ours fitting their own mission/agenda. E.g. Epilogue only accepts picture of a certain quality standard at their own final discretion; before you can register on Elfwood you first have to pass a test on their TOS and posting guidelines - and there you are only allowed to post SciFi & Fantasy images - everyting else is denied - there EVERY picture needs approvement before it actually appears in the gallery!!!; over at CGTalk - a highly professional art site - there are galleries where pictures can only be posted if they meet certain quality criteria again at the discretion of the staff; at renderotica you can post erotic art but even there not everything is allowed; over at SciFi-meshes you can only post SciFi pictures. So you see these are just (impersonal) rules to define a place - nothing more, nothing less.

@RosemaryR: have downloaded the most tutorials and most of them are really awesome - exactly what I had in mind/ what I was looking for !!! Hugs for this !!! Now the only thing left I need is some effects for thrusters and weapons... I would search myself but I am only on dial up which is slow and expensice as hell sigh well, have to try somehow such FX on my own... learning by doing and experimenting g

@chuck! ah - d'oh - didn't see that !!! THX for the tip! @RosemaryR: THX for the search results - I think that's more what I was was seeking - will look through them immediatly!!!

aaaargh - THX for the tips folks, but actually I tried to avoid plugins, because a curch mouse is wealthy compared to me g - besides doing it manually leaves open more options... but perhabs I will try them...

I think uploading 1 image a day (to gain speed performance) is fine, but I also understand peoples' need to upload more pics a day as they can't spread their upload over several days. So a 7-pics/week limitation would be much more practical then 1-pic/day. Folks think about it: this is 365 pics per year - and now think honest and reasonable - who produces so much ???!!! Nobody - at least not if that stuff is at least mediocre... Paying for extras is ok for me (although I have no way to do so via internet), but I think it's the wrong direction to limit the number of gallery images, cuz art is not measureable an we would loose a lot of art, ideas, impressions and inspirations !!!
