Yeah I don't get it, either. @TTRPG_Player entered an NSFW image for the Cyber Girl contest and said it got clobbered. I don't pretend to understand why, but we'll likely continue to submit SFW when we do enter haha.

Well, similar to NC, our "group" here of "Adult/Mature" liking people, is not that big really, compared to the whole. That might be part of it.

Well, people are people and they like what they like. Often, that does not coincide with my own preferences - I can't tell you how many "no-theme" challenges I have taken place on NC, plotting some action-oriented story-telling image, thinking and thinking about the story "directing" the scene, and again and again first 50 places go to potrtraits of little birds or landscapes. But if that's whtat the majority likes... well, that's what it likes.... As far as the "you pay - you get to see Mature+ images" policy, that plays a major role why I don't post those few I make. I guess half users will just not see them. So far 3 of my images got rated - unexpectedly - as mature and I 'm not at all happy about that! There is a huge plus for BP over NC as far as I'm concerned though. "You have the credz - you use whatever you want" That's why i'm here more than anything else. I was salivating over at NC looking mainly at GPT images - a model which I had no way to use myself.

That there are more of the "whimsical" image fan around everywhere is clear. And sure, my NC CD success rate(Top 5%-20%) is low; I fare better in the NSFW challenges; still run my own Heels/Feet related one weekly on NC. Otherwise I am here too, more model choices etc. and now the blog stories, that becomes important to me. Let'see what the next DC will bring. 😀

Thanks. You are right I know, (or at least I should know). In this image obviously the classic concept works very well. Recently I started a similar thing; I call it "protest entry"; for the "Cute Dog" I added the "hot" girl to the dog, my "Unicorn" entry was a "war unicorn and a queen". Some of the challenges remind me too much of NC, "cute dog", "mermaid" etc.

Aw, that does not mean much! You obviously put much thought and love to your creation and that's what matters much more! I made an entry knowing full well it would propably finish last - being so out of the box, but I can't stop staring at it, becouse it means much to me personally. (and anyway, I was wrong - it ended up SECOND-to-last1🤣)

germancowboy

Yes, I noticed the same concept, but it is already given based on my ideals, men for me are literally "out of the picture". Explicit? Maybe. But then AI understands me with giving this image a "Teen+" rating, and the BP members must be different people than he DC voters.

That's interesting, we both had the same idea for the contest (female vampire, female victim). The only difference is the image style and the fact your version places her hand on the victim's breast. Perhaps DC voters penalize such explicit sensuality?

germancowboy

True, far more openminded, no doubt; but I assume that the overall spectrum in regards to the members is still pretty much the same, not to mention that "non-paying" members do not see "Mature" items.

panos

😃😃 I quite understand! However, outre variants to the theme of the DC, I don't think they are frowned on here on BP, I believe they are encouraged
