Stupid Question Time
2 years ago
Yeah, I've seen the FA Announcement/FAQ/Clarification and reactions to such.... and, while I understand the concern, I find myself not terribly moved. Really, so many earlier policy changes or "clarifications" were MUCH more worrisome. If(f) it's just "don't show KIDS in sexual situations" I'm fine with that. If it's "anyone under X height is a kid" well, that's mighty damned stupid. Hell, consider fae - ANCIENT, long lived, TINY... so... the metric would be garbage (HINT: ANY metric, once published WILL {not 'can be' but WILL!} be gamed.). I get that 'chibi' is a weird border case, but...to be honest, "chibi" squicks me out. I've rejected commissions that tried to go that way.
That said, I do have some concern. While I have NO interest in "kiddie" anything that isn't "Could be shown on TV in the 1950's." there is the POSSIBILITY some doofus could get confused and see things that are not there. Thus I ask:
Is there ANY image in my gallery that might, if looked at sideways and squinting, be a possible violation of this (newly enforced) policy?
I do not believe so, but... I am biased. What say YOU?
I would FAR rather delete an item here (and keep it on my local drives - yes, plural... backups are your friends. Restores are even better friends!) than lose the account or such. For one, as crap as FA can be, it's still the best choice as far as I can tell. DA is... well... how do I put this... insane. And that's on the good days. Other places seem to be screwier still.
So... anything I ought worry about?

Im pretty confident you're safe. Just had a quick look and there is nothing that would make me even entertain the idea that its supposed to be a cub or have the wrong proportions.
