Well recently i've been recieving messages on myspace requesting male usable layouts. You know at first I figured well maybe this would be easy, but it actually is easier to create the usual girly ones. I'm sure color choice can play a major role when designing layouts for guys, but finding suitable images can become a problem. Some of these requests were wanting the usual half naked females, but how bare is too bare? I'm not sure if there is a thread on bikini pics or anything that may create the illusion of nudity. How do you go about designing layouts for guys?

This is my opinion on swimsuits and layouts....

It really depends. We don't exactly have a written rule against it but I don't really think its good to have "explicit" type material out there because of the age the people that view our layouts. Really people can disagree but there is nothing wrong with some clothing.

If its like this , there isn't really anything wrong with it:

http://www.sxc.hu/photo/436437
http://www.sxc.hu/photo/346345

Those are pretty conservative images. I'm not saying it has to be like that, but as long as the people are somewhat covered up and the motive of the layout isn't "yay sex party on the beach" or stuff of that nature, I don't see why not. We'd rather not have boobs sticking out all over the place.

I think we should pass on stuff like this, other mods may disagree.
