Subject: nude art
Hello - I figured I would share my opinion on the subject just so everyone understands what I'm thinking on the subject.

First I wanted to say that I think the pictures that were linked to here were very nice pieces of art. The problem that I see is where do you draw the line to what is art and what is "porn". For example, I have a page of naked girls who were painted on to create works of art. Since it includes nudity, I'm carefull on who sees these pictures so I won't post a link in public. But would something like be acceptable since it is art? Lets take an extreme example, I strip down and take a picture of myself naked. I call it art. Is it? The problem is where do you draw the line on the public board. For that reason, I personally feel it is almost beter to say "no nudity" at all then to have to try to determine where the line is between what is art and what is not.

The second reason I'm concerned is that all public boards on BrainKing are searchable from the outside (non-members). This incudes search engines like Google, and "bad site" blocker sites. [I'm going to use a worse-case senerio] Lets say one of the "bad site" blocker sites decided to scan BrainKing to make sure the site was acceptable, and came across a link to a site which contains nude pictures. Since some of these program are very picky, they may end up putting BrainKing on their blocked site list - which in turn may be a program used by ISP's or work of some of the players, which in turn may lose them access to this game site. Again, I'm using a worse-case type of example, but is another reason why I would worry if links to nude pictures would be allowed on a public board.

Those are my opinions on the subject
