Why do I feel all the desktop pictures will have the following...

1) Some hot chick or video game logo as a background
2) The terminal running, 3 quicktimes clips, iTunes and a DVD playing.
3) The hard drive named something after a character in the Matrix
4) A black or silver theme or hacks to make it look like another OS

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

We do not allow nudity because its not a porn site.
It's a mainstream site that everypne can enter, not just 18+.

Many of the great art work contain nudes. My wife and I have two hanging in our house.

Same here, lots of nude artwork in my house (I think many here have seen my mantelpiece). Makes my mom blush every time she comes over to visit. It's great.

I looked at the site and it doesn't impress me. No info on what the screens are there. No separate Mac/Windows versions. No comments.

Sorry, but I've seen a good number of sites doing the same thing, just better.
