You're quick, Kim. I just added it a few hours ago. You're welcome.

I'm with you, Kim. I thought the same thing just now. "How did I miss this?"

Glad to know it is the opposite........we are actually on the ball!!

I think this is going to be a nice addition.

I just looked at it a little closer.

Don't you think a better title would be "Kimberly's section?"

Hee hee

I'm sure there are some figuratives from earlier times that should be moved here. However, finding them could be daunting. I just happened to remember that Kim had done a lot of figuratives and that's why she currently dominates the section.

Cynthia-
What about story telling/figurative works that include nudes/partial nudes, can they be discussed here under Figurative Critiques?

Thank you for adding this section.

October,

Thank you for asking the question.

The Board has discussed nudes and that may come in the future. But for now, no nudes. It always comes down to the issue of the monitoring it requires because there will always be those that push the envelope and display something that is inappropriate on this site - either because it's overtly sexual or has an over-glamorized Harlequin look. Also, there are members who would be offended by this. Maybe in the future, we might add a password protected area for nudes and a sample nude would have to be submitted before the person was allowed to post.

Oops, the No Nude rule is clearly stated under section title. I failed to read it all the way to the end. Thanks for the clarification.
