How on earth is that art?



I'm fed up having to report deviations like this one and getting a note back like this one:

devart said the following:

Your Prohibited Content Violation Report on Venus 12 was reviewed by a member of the staff and action was taken, marking the report as Invalid.

Additionally, the following comment was provided:

No action taken.

---------------------------

This isn't art, this is pornography. This particular deviant already suffered a couple of his shots being taken down after I asked one of the GMs for advice and she agreed with my view that it isn't art.

So what does one need to do to make dA's rules regarding nudity and pornography be applied by its own staff?

FAQ #565: You prohibit the submission of 'pornographic imagery'; what do you consider this to be?

FAQ #60: Do you allow "Adult", explicit sexual or pornographic content on deviantART? How about linking off site?

FAQ #305: Is posting 'Adult' oriented artwork alright if I censor it first?

FAQ #23: What are deviantART's policies on nudity?

Happy New Year everyone, let's make deviantART 100% pr0n-free in 2009!

On this subject, people in the Complaints forum had very little intelligence about. My feeling this photo isn't artistic has nothing to do with being a prude and I will only be a bitch if provoked. Seriously, people, get real. I'm in my 30s, I am too old and I have had some sexual experiences I could've done without to be even slightly prudish, also hoping for intelligible conversation doesn't make me high & mighty, it makes me opinionated. That's a difficult concept to some but that's the truth. I now understand that this particular bunch cannot reason or be reasoned with and it is futile trying to make sense with its population.

So, if you don't like me being outspoken, don't come and shit in my boots. If you haven't got anything clever to add to the debate, just be quiet. And get it right please, I'm not British, or just European, I'm French. From France. The Hexagonal Country, just off Australia in case you want to find it on a map. :sarcasticclap:

Time to crack open the champagne! Happy New Year everyone! :party:

its not against the rules babe. its against decency and fine art and my poor eyes, but there no penetration or anything like that, its just a close-up vag shot. `Pelicanh has loads of them, its just that his look tasteful.

apparantly there is going to be something announced in the new year regarding moderating the AN gallery more strictly and to separate true artistic nude from the badly shot crap like this. i dont know about you, but i cant WAIT for that!

Yeah, according to the rules it fits

"Vaginal or Anal Spreading
Female subjects should not be depicted with their vaginal area manually spread open by hand or manipulated open by any other artificial means. Neither sex should show the anus manually opened in a similar fashion."

Doesn't say you can't show it.

However I agree that it's not artistic. It's nasty, and foul. But it doesn't break the rules :(

:no: it's hard to believe that the upper/senior end of the dA staff think that allowing this sort of stuff is making dA a better nicer place to be - and as they allow kids here (over 13?) this is morally fucked up .... I know of kids MUCH younger than that who spend all day browsing this place even while they're at school ....:confused: ...

...& not to mention it makes me wonder of the mental state of someone who submits an image like that to a site like this .... maybe it's the staff who get the kicks out of a prossies stretched pussy parts , that are putting everyone who isn't a weirdo off their food, because the mods seem to be the only people who don't object. :lmao:
(and whoever that flap belongs to needs cosmetic surgery to 'right the wrong' - an elephant would have a hard time getting a snug fit in THAT. =P )

:iconpeacelovechange:
see, im kind of conflicted on this matter... i agree in the sense that this is not my personal taste of art that i would support and follow.. BUT i think the point of art is that it can not be defined, anything can be art, and if that person considers his work art, well, thats his perception.
:icongigi-fenixphoenix:
I believe that there should be stricter regulations for nudity art. Key word here being 'art' and not just nudity.
