Adult Art banned?
...No big surprise there.

Gonna make a big huff?
...Nah, not really. I'd rather see this gallery site grow without those little lawsuits.

Why? It's such an injustice!!
...We don't ALL draw porn ALL of the time. It's not the only thing people post on Sheezy. It's not the only thing they should be producing either.

But! But! NO PORN!?
...Yup. (Haha you said 'butt')

What shall I do!?
...Draw your own. Socialize with the artists you like...you can contact them other ways. There's LJs, personal sites and their real-deal portfolios to admire. Plus other fun stuff to look into as well. It only takes an extra minute of web-surfing...an extra minute I'm sure you can spare.

But! INJUSTICE!?
...Welcome to the real world. This house has rules. It also has a basement if you're not afraid to look.

But its not just porn, it's erotic and mature art too!
...If its sexual, its most likey all going to be lumped in the same category...PORN. Not because we want to, but because the rules say so, because the TOS says so, because the mother with the 'scarred for life' 5 year-old says so, and because the lawyers say so. Same story at DA, just Sheezy is being better about it IMO.

I want to 'express myself' so badly though!!
...Then go masterbate. Er. I mean, art is about expressing yourself, yes? Does that mean everyone has to see every piece of work you put out? Naw, but you do get a fun feeling when someone comments on your work with a little ditty or critique with some ''s' and ':)'s' It is a good feeling, and I can't deny that. Adult/erotic/mature/porn isn't the only part of 'expressing' that expressing yourself entices. Look at all the other emotions human beings possess! I mean, WOW!! Lookit! Lookit! Go draw it! Quick before your mood changes!!

I want to leave Sheezy cause I can't express myself the way I want to.
...Have fun, and remember to read TOS's.

This has been a conversation with myself.

Sheezy's fun, and I'm here to stay. Good times, good options, good browsing, and fresh, excellent artists all around.

Adult art is only a fraction of what I do, so deleting it wouldn't kill my gallery of old-as-fart fanart shit anyway. So I'm not horribly saddened.

When it happened at DA I just went with the crowd for the most part. A stupid move, but hey, it was still a fun ride and I made some talented friends along the way. I hated to see these friends upset by bannings and deletions, thats why I helped in the ways that I did.

I love all you guys. Never stop producing artwork. If its your way of expressing yourself through that charred piece of wood or that plastic stylus, by all means keep doing it if it makes you happy. YOU. Not your fans. YOU.
