PerfectN: Forgot to add.   This is not meant as an insult in any way, and I do feel for your predicament.   However, considering the TOS regularions, and you have argued them before, I have to ask, seriously, how did you manage to not meet the regulations?     The TOS from my recollection states that covering up the nudity on a thumb is not allowed.

I've seen that happen to a few artists now, and I am left pondering if it didnt work the first time, why would it work a second?  (not saying you personally did this twice).   If I recall as well, from other arguments back and fourth with mods, it was stated somewhere there was no "grandfather clause" and all gallery images (even past ones), needed modified thumbs.

Again, I am sorry for your predicament.
