[QUOTE="MGibster, post: 8495426, member: 4534"] That's such an overly broad comment I can't agree. I'd need to look at the art in question and decide for myself whether it was wrong for the fandom to argue against changing it. There will no doubt be times where I agree the art should be changed and other times were I do not. I don't think it's necessarily wrong to disagree that something needs to be changed. This isn't true. As I grow older, fewer hobby materials are created to cater to my tastes. And one of the reasons I bring up Avalanche Press in threads about art, is because it's a good example of how I was alienated from a product I actually had an inclination to purchase. I took one look at the covers of their book and decided they weren't interested in me as a customer. I reject the idea that everything I want and like will be catered to. I'm not arguing for the inclusion of pin-up art in game books. Like I said, I avoided some game books specifically because of the cheesecake cover art. I would argue that it's probably appropriate for some products, and it's okay for it to exist even if I don't always care for it. Just because it makes someone uncomfortable is not a good enough reason for the fandom to want to change it. It's okay to like different things. It's okay if something isn't designed for everyone.
