At SHF the cover above was erased because "nudity" was shown in the opinion of the moderators ???? Fotographer is Sam Haskins.

So I created this one below which went through ;-]]

Never understood that cover anyway... maybe if the woman was smiling.

Well  are such pictures  art or not? Could be a new thread?

Similar attitude on the Sam Haskins side at Instagram??

What do you say to my own "creation"?

I'm sure you'll recall the "sexiest album cover" thread that got deleted a while back.

I don't get what that has to do with my comment. I was not commenting about the nudity. I was commenting that an album titled "All Smiles" has a woman clearly not smiling.

And we all know why that thread was pulled. It got out of hand and people wouldn't reign it in.

Never mind. I wasn't cranky when I posted. Maybe now I am. Didn't mean to offend you. I'm almost certain that cover was in the deleted thread.

The last few batch of covers posted to that "Sexiest Covers" thread were not anything like "All Smiles". They were soft core porn shots from Jane Birkin LPs - cover shots that they don't even show on discogs.com. On top of that, as I understand it, the mods had to delete a bunch more like these earlier.

If that thread hadn't gone that route, who knows if it would have been dumped? In the end, moderating it became a PIA and it wasn't worth the hassle.

And I would note that neither Jim S nor I deleted the unmodified cover of "All Smiles" posted in this thread.

FWIW, That thread was "hidden" by ownership, not deleted. At least initially. No idea what it's status is today.

I think?

But yes, it did get to be a PITA. But as always, life goes on.

it was a bit heteronormative for me. That's all. NAGL.

All Smiles is a strong record; the cover never did anything for me either way.
