I intended to post both of these images on DA to announce a new gallery here; Beach sunset. The image first was flagged and removed by DA before I could post it! I removed the second image myself. I am always cautious when posting on DA. I am not sure how to go forward, I need DA to promote this blog, I was really frightened that my account would have been terminated.
From P on DA: Their policy is really vague and makes NO sense! There are DA accounts that have been up for a while, which I think should be pulled. Yet when I posted a short story with a pic, where a Reptilian alien said their species laid eggs, the post was pulled and I got a warning. Several other images were pulled. One story said something like: "This suit is organic - it only lasts 8 hours, then it dissolves!" That one got pulled. Then all the pics of those characters got pulled. I hesitate to post anything there that shows a "child" who is NOT a real child, that is not fully dressed! I don't get it. Yet there are blogs with images that I would not tolerate, but... those are highest tier CORE+Pro members or whatever they call it. Just be careful.

Thank you P for taking the time from your very clever, expansive and beautiful DA page to post your supportive comment here. I am sincerely grateful.
DeleteI see nothing wrong with these pictures . . .
DeleteThank you Jameson. I think that an average person would complete the picture mentally and dress the boys in a bathing suit or shorts. I can see now that the algorithm, which has no experience, sees nude boys, hence a content violation!
DeleteThese pictures are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'm very pleased that you like them.
DeleteBTW I'm especially pleased because I had given up on using the OpenArt SDXL "model" for my renderings. It was creating too many disappointing images; these came out really well, so I'll try it again for a future project.
Deletere P on DA, now we know the repto/clones are the one's running DA and you got too close to their secret.
ReplyDeleteWhat you say makes sense; I don't believe any human is making or reviewing the flagging and removal of images or accounts.
DeleteHi Warren,
ReplyDeleteI aso see nothing wrong with these pics.
They are great.
I see worse pics on DA from young lads that are allowed.
Anyway I like to thank you for your regular posts on this blog.
I love them.

Hi Alex. You're right about questionable content posted by others, I have no explanation for the discrepancy, but I feel that I have to be extremely careful. I'm happy to have this platform to post my renderings as long as I have ideas worth posting. I appreciate your kind support and encouragement.
DeleteI have enjoyed these pics and your pages. Wow!! You're so talented and you have to show more. Thank you. xx
ReplyDeleteThank you Friend. I'll keep posting as long as I have ideas, I'm very pleased that you enjoy my efforts.
DeleteHey, Warren, Paolox3 here. I agree with other commenters that it's probably the AI "seeing" them model with no shirt, and figuring that it's a nude image. Nudity has its place in fine art, of course. Then there's the usual weekend spate of outright vulgarity that gets right into DA's main feeds almost every weekend, as it seems that no one is monitoring that. There's a huge difference. For example, the statue "Boy with Frog" I think it is called, is tasteful art, while images of abuse are another thing entirely. It's probably going to be a while longer before AI can tell the difference. Then again, as I've said, just talking about reproduction in a scifi story ("We lay eggs.") is enough to get one censored at DA. I see nothing wrong with these images.
ReplyDeleteHey Paolox. I appreciate your lucid explanation of your point of view with I completely agree and thank you for your support.
