off topic - flash kit calender

[FLASHPULSE]

Just looking at the flash kit calender and noticed my avatar on the front page all the way down the bottom. Pretty kool, looks like the calender I'll be buying for 2006. I was trying to find other familiar avatars but there's 520 (fully viewable) of them on there. http://www.cafepress.com/flashkit.41587647

Saw your avatar, but I also saw that the theme considers we're all 15 year old gamers,, pretty awful calender in my opinion. It has no thread at all. My daughter just did one for her biology class (frog intestines and copulating butterflys,,,,yeughhh) and to be honest,, it's a hell of a lot better than that effort , for the strong of stomach of course.
Nice avatar though.

I'am jealous, mine isn't there. Hey, great job flashpulse! :cool:

[FLASHPULSE]

I beleive it is luck on getting an avatar on the front cover. I'm sure they just picked random avatars. I think for 2007 they should use flash art for each of the months.

[gerbick]

That's a good idea for the next calendar... I'm up for it.

My entry which I never finished was built solely in Illustrator, all vector.

If you would divide that landscape oriented cover into two portrait oriented pages mine would be at the center of the left page. :)

I see it. ;)

....there's some nice art work in there, don't know how they did it but wish i could. guess it's just practice, practice, practice. lol
Think maybe there could have been a little more festivities on december as i get the impression someone doesn't think highly of christmas with the dead tree and grey background. lol :cap:

[gusmus]

The art work is really good. I just wished they'd found a theme for the whole thing. Looks like a car boot sale of unwanted pictures from your grown up sons bedroom.

I know exactly what you mean, most of the pictures don't even really have anything to do with the month they're on

[gusmus]

Next Year,,,, The KOOl Kalendar. We can tie Bob to the front page and write action script all over him.

[tmoore935]

Here is my super flash reply

[FLASHPULSE]

Rock on tmoore! you're quick. Nice sig by the way. ;)

[blanius]

Deadline uh.... Jan 15th sound ok?

[tmoore935]

Rock on tmoore! you're quick. Nice sig by the way. ;)
this has to be be fast to be for the next year. Next to Impossible I think, but Blanius is pretty quick on his feet.

[FLASHPULSE]

I'll be done with mine in a couple days. But whatever deadline you say is good. Just hoping to get enough KM user to submit. So the 15th sounds good. :D

[blanius]

william don't think we can use a nude

[gusmus]

That's not a nude,,, it's Michelin 5 star.

Darn,, I spent hours on her ,,, eeeerm That,, and she never complaiiii,,, ohhh dear,,, she ermm gave me permission,,,,, for the calander that is and,,, ahhh to hell with it,,, sec,, I'll do a masectomy.

PS.. Will a photo of a castrated duck be ok???

[blanius]

That's not a nude,,, it's Michelin,,, sec,, I'll do a masectomy.
Just remember this is a Public forum and there are many teen and younger members, as well as those that would not like to stumble on a nude photo. I hate to delete a post but I'm compelled to do so here. I think it was a pretty good image otherwise just not for the forum or calendar.

[gusmus]

There you go.. Should please everyone in the Republican party. (Bush is the one in the middle).

[gusmus]

Blanius. I take offence at the prohibition of nudity. This is not sunday school. Sexual exhibition I will always understand and will back you up 100%,, but nudity is something natural and beatiful if treated tastefully as I think my entry was. Please think again before becoming the next homeland security agent and let the general public decide.

Will you really work for anyone?? I tend to pick and choose.

[blanius]

Dude it has nothing to do with my opinion. It is flashkit rules.
This is the hard part of being a MOD I have to take heat for inforcing the rules.

I would presume you are referring to this


You will not use profanity in our forums, and will neither post with language or content that is obscene, sexually oriented, or sexually suggestive nor link to sites that contain such content.

included in http://www.jupitermedia.com/corporate/privacy/aup.html

I'd suggest that you are running very close to cencorship here Blanius. There was nothing sexually orientated nor suggestive in my post and I would ask you politely to please replace it as it is offensive to nobody until someone says so.
Question:
Did you find it offensive?
Is it corruptive in a perversive way?
Will the juniors amongst us be corrupted by it?
Is anyone likely to complain about it?
Have you ever been to an art gallery?
Are children prohibited from entering an art gallery in case they become corrupted by viewing nude ladies, men, or giraffes?

Answer those questions truthfully, assimilate your interpretation of the flaskkit rules and then compare your conclusions with what the rules actually say.
The forum is an open space where we post whatever we want (always respecting each other, with a few exceptions "Guilty mi lord") but in general without censorship. WE (communally) have never been censored, and WE (Communally) don't want to start being censored now. Your interpretation of the flashkit rules may differ from others but in the past I have seen much more sexually explicit material on the forum as a whole and no actoin has ever been taken.
Why now??
Why Me??
Answers on a postcard please.

PS: Vestri latino vendo vos , Meus sanctimonialis lingua est español quod EGO hablar latino valde puteus

[docree]

Didn't get to see it...
Of course, I'm anti-censorship, too.

Now, I'm contemplating submiting this KM art.

[gusmus]

too risky mate,, her lips are red

[gusmus]

I think what is being said is that the forum needs a headmaster to run the school but if the pupils run amock then surely one or other of the head teachers will deal with it. have a look at your other head teachers posts over the last year or so,,,, pertinant replies only,,, no censorship ever and certainly no personal foibles ever entered the forum. Christian, Hindu, Muslim, Judeo, Buddist, Agnostic nor Athiest, Naturalist or Lover of the dark side of life. I understand that as a new admin of the forum you would wish to make your stamp and mark but please realise that this is not a boot camp and we are all free to post wherever and whatever we want within reason. For this reason I ask you to be our appreciated forum member as always you have been and not our new Sergeant Major . Happy New Year from all.

[blanius]

Dude don't bust my chops! I've been Moderating for over a year on FK. I'm one of the easiest to get along with. The site Admin's have been known to BAN users for less. So just get over it. If you post images will nudity they will get deleted if not by me Then the Admin's and they kick my butt for not having already done so.

That's it conversation is over Please lets drop it. I'm not trying to Stamp my mark or any such and you are free to express your self any way you see fit but, This is a public forum and as such just as you could not display nudity on the public streets you cannot here. It's pretty simple and yes it Censorship you betcha. Censorship appropriate for the owners of a forum. This is not the free press nor are you entitled to do or say anything here. You want total freedom that's what you own site or blog is for. So cut me some slack.

[JPnyc]

The image was inappropriate and in violation of the acceptable use policy. Any member of the crew that saw it would've removed it, including myself.

[blanius]

I like your new 3d Avatar.

Someone pointed out my old "K" avatar is on the FlashKit calender cover.
