Hmmm. Do they classify as adult images? Maybe. Would I show them to my mother? Well.. if I felt the need, I would. If it somehow came up in conversation...

I think people in general understand the guiding principle of the rules, even if not follow to the letter of the law. The body paint stuff I tend to think is kinda cool and have no issue with it, though by the same token wouldn't want to see it appear in 20 gallery pages in a row. But I feel the same way about landscape pictures etc too. Mostly it's just to avoid being added as an adult site on content filters etc, because then I couldn't even visit my own site from work (the porn one would set alarms off all over the place for many reasons if I went there).

You're right though, I should probably change the rules. This place is meant to be somewhere that adults can hang out (I know that more often than not it's not but you get that). It can be offensive, it can test you, but it can also be quite tame. I guess people fucking or nudes for the sake of being nude belong on the porn site.. but to be honest I don't even mind nude art/etc on this side.

Especially because the word "adult" was added in there to satisfy Google when we were running their ads here, but since they dropped us because of a camel toe pic then I guess it's not particularly important any more.
