I, personally, would like to see more fine art nudes.

Classy, original works and I wouldn't want them to take over. But a few to inspire those of us that wish to shoot nudes....

I, too, would like to see more Artistic Nudes. Other than that, I'm not really sure.

One day, someone showed me a glass of water that was half full. And he said, "Is it half full or half empty?" So I drank the water. No more problem. ~Alexander Jodorowsky

i wouldn't want to see nudes at all to be honest. But it's a portrait club and i'm not calling the shots on it

I'd like to see portraits separated into genres so people can find what they want in each portrait genre. There's actually so many... Street portraits, Documentary and photojourn, Gig portraits, fashion, fetish (if you go into nudes) and the like...

It'll also be great to put top portraits of the week based on genres so respective people can appreciate them

Artistic nudes, they are an important aspect of portraiture. Other than that I'm fine with the way things are!

Under the current guidelines: "Artistic nudity will be accept at the sole discretion of the administrator." The reasons you don't see any is that no one submit them.

However having said that, they would have to be exceptionally good to be accepted. Personally I don't find 99% of artistic nudes that interesting, which is no reflection on the photographer/artist. Generally they don't appeal to my asthetic, and the majority of them in my opinion, are less about the portrait and all about the nude.

How do you all feel about conceptual portraiture? About horror portraiture? Or other genres? I'm interested in your opinions.
