Art [ FAQ ] - DragonFire - 09-29-2002
Quote:Hi ya,
Welcome to the board "art".
I ( DragonFire ) am your host for today.
Lets start by explaining this board.
Here you can post anything art related. So if you want to show of your latest rpg sprites or if you need help with a 3D scene, this is the place to be.
Just a few stuff I will not tollerate:
- Porn. ( Allthough nude would be some kind of art.. I Will not tollerate much on this subject. There are childeren under 18 visiting this board. Please keep that in mind. )
- Rasism of any kind.
- Nasty dirty stuff. ( Please do not post something like guts hanging all over the place. Or a pile of barf. This is NOT art in my oppinion! )
- Any thing else that I find not suitable.
Thanks for visiting this board.

Why are you quoting yourself?
Another thing that I am curious about... I understood that, for you, nude and pornography are the same thing. Then, for you, artists like Michaelangelo are phornographers?

I Was quoting myself sins the old faq was a message and this is a sticky message. Ill remove the old one. And as far as the nude thing I find a lot of things art but im just saying it because I don't want qbasicnews to get problems for showing stuff that is rated 18+ that all..

na_th_an: Although its an art section, it should still fit inline with the rest of the site which I want to keep for all ages. I hope you understand.

That is true of course :-). I know, Na Than, that you like drawing some kinda almost-nude pictures for your programs (like Lala hehe ;-) I like it btw). But I agree with WildCard that too much of it shown here would really make this site for 18 years or older ;-).
Thus I'm not saying you should stop drawing those pics (I actually say you should go on, caus I like the pics ;-) ). As long as too high-rated pictures are not shown on the site.
(btw, how do you make those pictures? ;-))

I understand and agree but I don't consider some of my drawings (I.E. Lala's cover) harmful in any way for people under 18. Anyhow, I think I've been respectful with the forum and I don't understand the rants.

I Never said anyone did anything wrong... I Just put the old faq in a sticky message so it says on top...

Cool.

well, there is a fine line between artistic nudity and pornography. for instance, michaelangelo was dipicting david in the buff, but its a very formal pose, nothing suggesting (thank god) and used to imitate an ancient greeks style. just drawing anime girls lacking any kind of covering in a happy, sexy, nonpurposeful naked scene is most definately, pornography. also, the more realistic (that is, detailed and human-like) you go nudity becomes less and less acceptable for an under-18/sensitive audience because it becomes closer and closer to a nude photograph, which, unless in a very, very blue-moon case, is forbidden.
i know spain, as well as most of the world is less conservative on the topic, but since this is an international forum it has to appeal to a broad american audience too, which includes me (i find nudity unnerving in art, and it becomes something of a turn-off, ironically).

So you consider a naked drawing of a girl pornography? I was thinking on eroticism. Pornography has to involve explicit sexual action, if we attend to its definition.
In my opinion, I consider the nude body beautiful (when it is
) and non-offending in any way. But I respect you.
