PG13 or Too Adult?

I just submitted a portfolio for consideration, and I didn't include this piece because I wasn't sure if it would be considered PG13. When I showed it at FC07, I was told that it could be displayed in either the all-ages auction, or the adult auction, but I am aware that opinions about what sort of nude is youth-viewable varies from person to person and place to place.

I am fond of drawing nudes, and I was hoping for clarification on exactly what is considered appropriate for this site. I also have a couple other pieces featuring males with sheath and balls visible, but that is merely a result of the character being nude, not a feature of the drawing. I, personally, find it quite disturbing when realistically rendered characters are missing essential anatomical bits for the sake of "decency", and so I always include those bits when the pose is such that they should be visible.

I would personally consider that PG-13. Plus, tasteful nudity is allowed on ArtSpots, with the appropriate rating. :)

no nipples!
no genitalia!
no mature themes (sexuality, drug use, violence)

I'd agree with Mauricia, that this is totally okay with JaxPad/Artspots, if rated appropriately.
To me it's PG-13 but very close to PG because the darkness hides pretty much of the figure.

NO CROWN! ONLY THE HARVEST!

Thanks for the feedback and clarification. After looking further into the rules both here and via JaxPad, I finally found some more specific guidelines as well. A lot of my nudes will not be allowed, and that's just fine as long as I understand where the line is drawn. I like this site the way it is, and a number of artists I admire greatly maintain galleries here.

Nipples are allowed.

Thanks, I wasn't sure about that. There weren't any on the pic anyway.
