Well in surfing the galleries I came across a wonderful image of christ on the cross http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=833345&Start=1&Sectionid=0&filter_genre_id=0&Form.Search=jesus&Form.Criteria=Name done by Avengia this image was also rejected from rendos huge christmas contest. i wanted to share this with everyone here, and get some thoughts and imput. i think my mom said it best..... Seeing as Christmas is the birth of Christ, no matter how we commercialize it, ignore it or deny it, the whole reason behind it is Christ. the fact they said it was to violent was a joke as she actually did a very clean simple image. take this image back in the contest. it deserves it and it shows the true meaning of christmas.
