Pixel Joint Forum: Nudity in the Gallery?

Message

   It is entirely possible I missed the section where this was explained, so please forgive me if I did just overlook it.

What is the policy on artistic/tasteful nudity in the gallery? I have
several pieces I'd consider submitting that have bare breasts, varying
from photo realism to single pink pixels for nipples on a cartony
figure. 

They're not pornographic or sexual but they are naked, and I don't want
to offend anyones' sensibilities by submitting inappropriate subject
matter. 

I guess while I'm here... one of the pieces I'd like to submit is a
photo realistic "doll base" - no hair, no clothes. Would it be
considered too much of a WIP to be accepted? I'm loath to put clothing
and hair on it since to me, it's a finished piece of artwork, but I
don't know if anyone approving artwork would view it as a stand-alone
piece.

	Well if the acceptation of this, this, this, this and a load of others are anything to go by, I'd say go ahead and submit them. If you had set out to make an actual 'real-life' type of doll, I don't see any reason it shouldn't be accepted, it sounds like a perfectly reasonable subject to pixel just as any other is. If I were you, I'd just submit it anyway; members over level 2 vote on which pieces are allowed in, you won't be punished if pieces are rejected, so you don't have much to lose.
