Mature Content Feature



As can happen as time passes, I've recently found my artistic tastes growing in new directions. I am very thankful that deviantART can satisfy my desires to enjoy images of this style, as this kind of work can be challenging to locate elsewhere.

I know that not everyone shares my tastes, but particular thanks to ^arachnid15 for his support of self-expression.

I'm debating doing a news article to feature some of these images as well!

As a rule i try not to give negative feedback, but i really don't find any of these artistic or news worthy, so i guess i just broke my own rule.

I'm with you on this one... close-ups of genitals are usually just attention-whore shots. If you're not including a face (or any other part of the body) you're usually only asking for one thing.

But, knowing Wynnesome like I do, and seeing as how quite a few of these aren't even good *photography* (poor lighting, poor processing, bad or distracting backgrounds) I suspect she is leading up to a point.

Fair comment, i had thought there must be a point to it as it seems most unlikely.

I would be thrilled to have the site admins hear the negative feedback loudly. Understanding that the negative feedback isn't toward me, but toward the works presented here, from our own Artistic Nude gallery. My very favorite is the last one on the bottom, which is artistic enough to apparently warrant an exception to the pornography prohibition against manual genital spreading written in the site faq.
Outstanding!

It occurs to me that by featuring these images in a satiric manor you'll have the inverse of desired effect, making people just think you actually support this kind of work.

And really, why take attention from features that people took time and effort to build, to bring attention to GOOD work? Propagating the bad doesn't help anyone.

I think if you make this a news article, it will get a ton of faves. It will get you a hundred new watchers who will put you work into collections called "I wak to thiz" and "boobs" and none of the pieces will get removed any faster. They'll just get more favorites, and people will know that when Wendy's in a bad mood, she gives out free porn.
I cited a piece which CLEARLY, UNEQUIVOCALLY shows both "mouth to breast" contact (the licking of a nipple and it's clearly touching) AND "hand to genital" contact (a girl with her hand on the others crotch *while licking her nipple" which would certainly imply fondling/masturbation and not a demure covering) both of which are in super-clear violation of FAQ 565, and I got back the following note:
A member of staff has reviewed this deviation and has judged that it is within the current limits set by official policy.

I don't call out publicly, but anyone interested is certainly welcome to note me and I'll send them a link.

I've found that very little of the so called "art" here is any better than lazy snapshots. Of course, I've also found that tits and ass = favs and awards here, while some of the actually talented artists have their work pulled down for random reasons. It's part of why many people have left or are leaving and why I've pulled my own nude work from here, and am debating pulling the rest.


On another note....some of those pics must have been shot on very cold days......

A canvas and a mind must start empty in order to fill with color and magic.

Should spread-legged nudes and genital closeup images be subject to "artistic review" and removal?
