Slut in the screenshots... -Sigh-

Saturday, May 24, 2003 by EventHorizon | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I hate to do this, but....

I have noticed lately, that there have been a lot of unsavory additions to the screenshots library. I emailed Jafo about this and he deleted a number of them, but of course, they still keep comin' in. B1uesummers in particular with some others coming SS Goku etc. I am wondering if maybe screenshots arent obliged to go through moderation...That could be a prob.

To see what im talkin about go to... https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=13&SkinID=1973 Ok fine, thats just one, but ive been watchin the screenshots for a while and I dont like what I see...One IS worth removing so that we dont have little kids paying visits to the screenshots and saying, "Mommy, mommy, look at that!..."

Now some of you may not agree with me...(People's moral standards being different and all)...but I dont think its right for a "family site" to be displaying this kind of crap. Basically what Im asking is, could someone please remove the ones you see fit and to make sure these people dont do it again.

Joetheblow: if it was a real woman and not a cartoon, it would still be accepted in the screenshot section. Of course if it were submited as a wallpaper, as a cartoon or as a picture, it would greatly depend on the actual quality of the artwork itself and how valid we feel it is as a wallpaper.

Yes, indeed, there are some porn cartoons. And they wouldn't be accepted here. But frankly, personnally, I find cartoon pron as exciting as a car engine.  And I actually find totally funny that some guys fantacize on a cartoon character. But then again, it seems some guys like are into shoes, socks, or all sorts of funny things.  But anyway, we're not even close to that here. Heck, Disney shows more curves in their female characters than this one. Esmeralda or Pochahontas have a figure almost impossible for a normal woman. Even Barbie's figure is more a male dream than any child's. Yet nobody seems to be outraged by it.

Not true paxx...I'm sure there is an active anti-Barbie cult...

 

BTW....I often find car engines 'exciting'....

I thought Pochahontas was pretty curve too... and Disney's little mirmaid caught my eye... but it was within a specific context and other than that it was mostly covered curves or beach like covering curves.

you know what I mean???

like the image in question is bigger, showing more and Disney would not have her in a cartoon for a PG rating.

But since it is a cartoon and has a context of being within a catogoey and it is not actually showing any specific acts or parts I say its ok... but borderline because of how much is showing and the proximity of breast hanging and possible closness to, dare i say, nipps



And I don't like Barbie. what is that? 36 12 26??? give me a brake.


I think its ok to have it here. but its really borderline.

ooohhh let not talk about artist!!! I forget his name but basically he went to Barbados to paint the 'natives' and explore the healthy tresurs of the islands



the paintings wouldn't be considered p0rn today, but it was defianatly p0rn then. Only fit to be bought by men who put it in the private rooms.

Gosh I wish I could remember who that guy is. One painting had a native holding a platter and her breasts where sitting on it with fruits and vegetables.

For the time it was clearly erotic in nature and for mostly one purpose.. nudey stuffus.

MHO? Using the word "slut" in the title of this thread is more offensive than any drawing displayed here.


Agree 100% with Knattz. When I visited the message board earlier, the subject title on this thread stuck out like a sore thumb

And by the way, I understand what you mean by the lack of clothing, but this is the 21st century. I've seen women walk down the street with less cloths than that cartoon girl.
It's the Miss Universe contest next week. Prime time on national TV, and throughout the world. Watch their bikini's and come back saying that the cartoon is borderline for kids and the pageant is family entertainment...
Just gotta put things in perpective sometimes.

But I must admit, there is one little thing that bothers me about that picture, and it has nothing to do with the amount of clothes she has. It's the fact that she is crying. Can't help but wonder: what is she crying about? Something in me can't help thinking of maybe abuse. Then again, it's only cartoon, so nobody was actually harmed as a model. But still, it's a bit disturbing.

Just two little water drops in her eyes make me much more uneasy than if she was showing off her breasts completely.

no it wasn't Van Gogh. some other artist cat. I have to look in my art history book. when the class saw the images it was clearly art... and also a nudy picture. to sell back home as a sort of penthouse magazine for the 1700's

it's sad to say, but I agree that in this day and age that cartoon like that is nothing... Try walking around my school and [almost] no matter how perverted you may be you'll have seen enough. (which is a lot more than those cartoons show)

(paxx doesn't mind is there were breasts showing???)



I wouldn't mind to much myself. But the position, context, and other factors would play into my desition.

and yes that iMac girl was borderline too Doomgaze. Borderline but allowable.

That's not what I said, joe. Please re-read my post.
The thought of a woman being abused is worse to me.

I see those tears in the eyes as an extremely common element in Anime pics........
