As a matter of interest to you, Saudi Arabia has your MarketPlace behind their Kingdomwide firewall and there is no way products can be reviewed or ordered as a result. The freebie section is still open so far. I assume the Saudis have done this due to the amount of nudity displayed in character advertisement. Personally, if I need to order something I will just have to wait every six months when I return to the US on leave....such is life in the desert...

So this URL is blocked?

As a related point of interest, someone in Qatar posted a fascinating message to the Poser newsgroup a few months ago. He claimed that the purchase of Poser was illegal in his country due to "the nudes," and that the Curious Labs website was blocked by the Qatari government. Renderosity wasn't mentioned. He didn't say how he'd obtained his copy, but that's beside the point. He was clearly frustrated with being creatively limited by his government. I daily count my blessings for being in a relatively free country, however there were rumblings some months ago that Mr. Ashcroft's DOJ is unhappy with the very existence of Poser, due to the potential for creating illegal imagery. A ridiculous argument, IMO, since all one needs is a pencil to make images that will seem immoral to someone, somewhere. Sorry if this is off topic for this forum. Keep the faith, vanezz2.
