Challenge 84 - Disclaimer Required?

I'm a little worried where this one could go. Is there a rating that is suggested for this challenge? I think that all of the challenge entries prior to this challenge have been PG (Can't Remember any PG-13). But if it is open to any and all photographs of the human body, do we need to put a disclaimer on the thread to warn those in the office place of potential issues? I checked the rules of the Photo Challenge and there isn't any statement preventing the provocative.

I'm not suggesting that this contest be Censored in any way, and in the same token I'm not suggesting that the entries should be pornographic, I was just hoping (Possibly) for some clarification in the event that the entries are Promiscuous.

What are the intents of the D-Grin Gods?

    The same rules apply to this challenge as apply to all of dgrin. PG only. I'll let Doc clarify further.

    Let me clarify even further - there are not in fact specific "rating" rules on the challenges. So Jamoke, you are right, you didn't read about anything in the immediate challenge rules. However, there are site-wide rules, and those state that dgrin is a "family-friendly" place.

    That being said, think in the mindset of a photographer and artist when you ask yourself the "would I let my kids see this" question.

    Clear as mud? :D

    Clear as ever. So it is up to the photographer as to what they would 'let [their] kids see'? I guess Site wide I've wondered about those standards, but as far as this Challenge, it does seem clear.
