Quote - I dont even bother going to the galleries. Im sick of Vickie renders with big, ugly boobs. All they do is slap a texture on it and dial in the chest as high as it can go. No wonder why Poser is frowned upon. Just rate the gallery XXX and have done with it seeing thats all anyone uploads anyway.

 

I look at it on occasion, but seldom comment on nudes.
Perhaps I should start commenting on some images with something to the effect to "I don't see why nudity was necessary to tell this story" or saying that nudity detracts from it.
Or, what's the point to it....   Of course, before too long I'd end up being accused of being a major grumpy prude, and that would make it uncomfortable to hang out around here. 
I have all the conflict and arguing I can tolerate already.
So... I dunno what to do... :(

I dio think if nudes and sexually provocative images were stigmatized a little bit more then they are, it may push some people into little more artistic growth, and would change the overall atmospehere a tad, and perhaps gain Poser some respect.

Poser is a rather versatile tool, but as long as it has a reputation of being popular in low quality CG porn (or borderline porn) creation, it will not get the respect it deserves.
I mean look at the wikipedia's description of Poser... One of the three major related subjects to Poser is Poser Porn.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against Porn. But, I am aware of the fact that in most of the societies around the world, when regular daily things, ats, politics, sciences etc... are too closely related to pornography, nost people stop taking them very seriously.

Sure, nudes can be artful, but not every nude is art, and also, looking at rendo's galleties on would be left under the impression that most pieces have to have nudity in them to be art. Well, that's bass ackwards. If one looks at art at large, nudity is not the majority of art, and most artistic nudes in general have a very subtle understated sexual component.
