About the frequency of this thread-type. I checked prior to the making of it, probably not as thoroughly as I could have. Mostly the threads of this type were about "prog covers". I did find one thread, dating back to 2006, but the topic was closed.

You can't really see them is not at all the phrase I would choose to describe that image.

Well, as I recall (I'm also too lazy to go check), people always also post bad non-prog covers because they can't resist. The prog part is just so people can inline NSFW album covers without warning with the dubious justification that they're hosted on PA.

Really, I got curious and googled the abbreviation to find out that it means not safe/suitable for work, which in itself is very funny, I had no idea such a category existed.
I see now that the two naked German hippies, a picture I surely wouldn't consider sexually explicit or an instance of profanity, have disappeared. I'll not protest, but seriously, I think it's a bit uptight.

Well, it's evolved from the original definition of "This could be considered pornography and may get you fired" to a courtesy warning for any explicit content that someone might not want to see (or have others see them see).

Not even remotely uptight. Do you consider it normal to surprise people with pictures of penises without their consent? Perhaps while they're in a public place and it might be embarrassing. If you are fine with that then I have plenty of websites I can suggest you browse instead. Ok sure, maybe it's "art" and not "pornography" (that is not a distinction I care about or wish to discuss) but there are plenty of legitimate reasons for someone to not want to see a penis (much less a dirty German hippy penis) and you have no right to force it upon them.
If you'd linked to it with a warning I wouldn't have said anything, I've certainly seen worse on the internet, but have some courtesy for other forum members.

Psh, I thought it was pretty clear I did not mean right in the legal sense. ;-) Although there are laws about showing pornography to minors. There was one case in my area of a guy going up to girls at a school bus stop with porn playing on his laptop. I think they eventually got him, it was so long ago I can't clearly remember. I always wondered what type of porn it was that he thought was so important that he had to share.

Real world legislation and forum rules are basically the same, at the level we're talking here. I'm sure the image was not pornographic; penis or boob does not necessarely pornography make, which means (according to the "site rules and regulations") the image went under "offensive images", which makes my point. You officially hate it when laws (rules) come to the rescue of people feeling offended, yet you reported an "offensive" image.
Of course if it actually was a pornographic image then I wrongly interpreted the situation.

I am sure you would not consider it pornography. But there is a huge difference between rules against tasteless content being enforced by a private organization on their own property and by the government.
The reasons nudity without a warning should not be allowed on a forum that is intended to be welcoming to everyone seem fairly obvious to me.

I disagree on the first count, our forum rules and moderation pretty much mirror the way society regulates itself in the "traditional" public space. But I agree on the second count, and I think the only difference between us is where we draw the line between appropriate and unappropriate - which makes the whole issue a completely subjective one, i.e. a case where no rules should be set, according to you from our "Coran burning and free speach" debate.

I can't share your interpretation of the series of events. I was not in any way out to surprise people with pictures of penises. I was posting what I considered an instance of very bad cover art - It didn't enter my mind that the naked people in the picture could be offensive to anyone here (then I learned something). It was not a picture of penises, it was a picture of two naked men, of course having penises. If you were to cut out the penis-areas of the picture and isolate them, you'd probably not be able to recognize what you'd see as penises.

I think most people can differentiate nudity from titilation from pornography and as a moderator here I apply my personal view of these when deciding to hide or allow images of human nudity on the forum until someone reports the image for whatever reason. If it gets reported I will generally hide it without question or debate.
But sure as eggs are eggs, when it comes to album covers of nudity or bad art, some clown will eventually post the Millie Jackson cover and someother clown will post the Blind Faith cover.

I must admit that I fail to understand why it's clownish behavior to post the covers I assume you're talking about in this thread which is about ugly, distasteful and otherwise bad cover art. I acknowledge the NSFW restriction, I know my own boundary (Virgin Killer for instance), but the Blind Faith cover? It's very distasteful, yes, but I surely would identify a prohibition against it as an instance of being way too uptight, and if someone were to post a picture of it, I'd certainly feel that it would be an appropriate addition.

The cover itself is not the reason for me to regard it as clownish behaviour, what is clownish is reason behind the desire to post it. People post that cover for the reaction, not for the image itself.

Isn't that a little too speculative? I mean, guesswork concerning what kind of intention(s) people have while posting a picture, well, does it matter? And why should anyone engage themselves with such kind of speculations when there is no way one can adequately and reasonably be aware of the actual intentions? Surely one can make qualified guesses, but I couldn't care less about intentions behind making a post, I only pay attention to what is actually posted.

Of course. Forum moderation is not an exact science and personally I would not act as a result of anyone posting the image - believe it or not - I don't act on hunches and guess work. As you say, I cannot read minds, however, my personal opinion of why the person posted it and my opinion of that person as a result will forever remain unchanged - they are a clown.

I'd like to attach a few notes:
It's the cover of a spectacular Danish left-wing gay-activisme record from 1975, presumeably the very first of its kind in the world.
'Bøsse' means "gay," and 'bøssernes befrielses front' means "the gays' liberation front".
The record basically believes that we are born with the same degree of likelihood of turning either hetero- or homosexual. The society is the main problem, it promotes a suppressing hetero-normality and marks homosexuality a deviant disease.
I don't agree that hetero-sexuality exclusively is brought upon by the society, I'm not gay, but I have much sympathy for this record, it's very courageous and the lyrics are very straight-forward in your face accounts of gay-activities as well as attempts at converting the listener: How do you know you aren't gay if you have never tried kissing a man? is a rhetorical question repeated in various alternations in one of the most remarkable songs on the record, How do you know?
But the cover is horrible.

There are a few really bad sleeve designs from the Scorpions catalog, at least 3-4 that I can remember. I think they had legal issues with one of them in that it was similar to the Blind Faith cover art (except way more graphic), and it had to be recalled. I don't have time to get the links up right now, but try a Google search for "Animal Magnetism," and see what you come up with.

I will not post the so-called "Virgin Killer" original cover art either, or ever look at it again, but I have seen it once. For those who have not: Trust me, it is horrendous enough that I would not be surprised if simply owning it is grounds for a warrant of arrest in certain jurisdictions of the USA, based on current child protection laws. Child porn is NOT acceptable under any circumstances, which probably explains why one of the guys from the Scorpions ended up living broke and homeless in the 90's.
