I 've been sitting here toying with the idea of rendering
something that would be considered "sexual" in nature.  I was
wondering,  is there anyone else out there done anything like that?
(obviously not a topic for the IRTC!!)   I mean,  let's face it...
almost everything has been rendered that there is to see in the known
universe.  (and something we'll never see!)  But I have never came
across this "topic" before when it pertained to raytracing.  So how
about it folks?  Would it be considered bad/offensive taste to create
something like this?

P.S  When I say "sexual" in nature... I had nothing particular in mind.

Have a look at the entries for the irtc round topic - night.

There have been some post at binary.images featuring Lara Croft in a
more ... hmmmm ... open style of clothing. If I remember it it got
started by the admin. 

Offensive ... I don't think so. It's still part of life ... an important
one also. 
Just try to keep something that can be called good taste if you want to
show in public and want to get flamed all over.
I guess nobody would have called the naked greek statues offensive (well
you will never know!).

  I think that one is easy to answer. Yes there have been images produced
tht displayed human nudity. Of those that I have seen each was presented
as art. There is one Pov artist using poser to create some very classy
looking imagery that uses nude female poser people. One tht comes to mind
is her version of the classic chess board scene using nude females as
the playing pieces. It is in the binaries images group poted sometime between
9-98 and 1-99. The artist is name is Jenny Williams if I recall correctly.

 The point to remember is that if it is presented as art and not as
perversion few will regard it as offensive. You can't of course please
everybody so act with a reasonable amount of moral restraint. Detailed
close-ups of male and femail pelvic regions would probably be frowned
upon by most people and the details of these areas should be kept to a
minimum when included at all.

 Whatever you do -  DO NOT publicly post graphic images of blatant sex acts,
natural or unatural, to the images group here. It will most likely, on this
server anyway, be removed and might cause your access to the server to become
restricted or removed completely.

Yes, there was one particular image in there (and I'm sure everyone knows
which one!) which I would NOT consider tasteful for such public display...

But, of course as long as you display it as a work of art I'm sure not too
many people will be offended... I'm sure that what you have in mind is not
like that of the now famous IRTC entry... (badly composed that image too...)

The current hangout for poser-people in interesting positions
is alt.binaries.3d.poser.  Some of that stuff gets pretty ugly
and I am glad it hasn't spilled over onto this server.

The quality of the postings and the helpful attitudes (along
with a little friendly competition :-) make povray.org groups
something special.

Being spam-free doesn't hurt either!

Telling me!  Go over to alt.3d.studio and it's like you've just mailed your
email address to every spammer in the USA!!!

WOOHOO to the news.povray.org server!!!

As for the Poser pics, I'm glad that none have been posted here either...

The stuff people have done with Character Studio and that damn Viewpoint
Digital model (that's become so sickly popular) is just disgusting...

 Oh come on now. Is everything you model so virtious that you can say that
with a straight face. After all we only see the public side of Lance and not
the private possibly darker side of Lance. You maybe sitting there right now
modeling voodoo dolls for each our names posted here and stabing them with
virtual pins and setting them aflame with virtual fire without us knowing it.

About the most violent thing I've modelled is a bottle of pills and some
cigarettes, which can be found at:

BTW, the project is finished now... (the one on the site)  If anyone wants
to see the animation of it, tell me and I'll post a version for download.

What you create is up to you.  What you *post* is up to your ISP and the
server that stores your data.

However, please keep in mind that some people who read the povray.org
server are doing so from their workplace, where they are subject to
monitoring, and could get in trouble if the monitor noted something
being downloaded.  Other people might wish to not download pictures
of naked people for some other reason.  I work in the Pentagon, for
instance, and we have an office of a dozen or so people whose job
is to monitor the traffic on the network; mostly they're looking for
hackers, but they also keep an eye out for smut.

As a service to people like these, you should put a warning in the
subject line of the message.  Something like:

  Subject:  [NUDITY] Xena v1.1

and those who for some reason or another don't want to download
anything sexual will be warned and can skip over it.

Regards,
John

hmm, imho raytracing is not a good medium for eroticism. Porn, titilation,
nude tomb-raiders maybe - anything that requires acres of smooth flesh and
small quantities of clothing.

But eroticism requires something a little less "perfect". I guess raytracing
will be able to do convincing erotic art about the same time it can do a
convincing close-up of an old man/woman's face (or has someone done this?)

The close-up of the clown in "Bingo" is, methinks, pretty convincing. Maybe
it's the heavy makeup that does it... Bare skin have always been very
difficult to get exactly, exactly right, and it always looks very phony
whenever it isn't exactly, exactly right.

Hmm, and I thought it would have reinforced where you came from ;-)
