O.K. GUYS- I'M OFF. DA REMOVED 'CENSORED BY DEVIANT ART' MY FREEDOM OF EXPRESSON HAS BEEN ATTACKED. THERE WAS NOTHING TO BOTHER ANYONE IN THAT PICTURE, EXCEPT DEVIANT ART.

I'VE HAD ENOUGH. YOU CAN READ MY MESSAGE TO DA BELOW....

IT'LL PROBABLY BE MY LAST ONE HERE UNDER THIS GUISE... BUT I'LL BE BACK FOR REVENGE. (OR MAYBE I'M ALREADY HERE)

o.k. I've read the policy, but you still haven't offered a clear reason as to why this picture is objectionable. I did submit the same picture, but with a white patch over part of the picture saying ' censored by deviantart'- it was not possible to see any face or genitalia, or breasts, or any kind of nudity whatsoever, but you still removed it- saying now that you need a model release- again- I ask- (bearing in mind that i am a professional photographer, so model releases are not new to me) why does this picture need a model release when others from the same shoot have not needed one? why? because you cannot see the face- therefore- why is a model release needed? the person was not identifiable! ( by the way the model is my wife- the same 30 year old model that I have used in all my pictures! and in none of them can you see her face. )


in no other site on the internet, and in no other media will you need a model release if you cannot identify the person- example- you don't need a model release for an arse, or breasts, or even eyes.

Basially, you can do what ever you like, but it seems to me that deviant art is too keen to accept payment for a subscription, but is unable to follow this with acceptable standards of service, so I'm out of here. I'm taking all my pictures down and leaving deviant art. it seems to me that if you treat serious subscribers the way you have treated me, you won't be around for long, so nevermind. good luck.
