It seems even snowpersons (to to use their correct, non sexist name) are subject to censorship...

A snowlady that Maria Conneran and her family sculpted in front of their home attracted an anonymous complaint to police who had the family cover up the sculpture with clothing.

Hey thanks, A-G - I actually spotted that one myself, while taking my dober-person for a walk (you know - the one I rescued from the .455 kilogram...).

I agree - it's actually false advertising! Someone should complain...

Mr. Berg, I've just commented on the gallery that it's strange the photo wasn't classed as adult content. That was a joke.
Sam-Joseph,

Actually, I had half a mind to tick that very box in the gallery...

This reminds me of some architecture students who created a nude female sand scuplture on the beach below Culzean Castle. All was well until they added some seaweed.

We had similar - a student here was fined £30 for making a 'snow penis'. It was outside the copshop but it did at least prove the police in Cambridgeshire have had a humourectomy.

Please lets no get started on political correctness chaps...

Oh I see we already have, OK guess what really ticks me off:

You may be very pleased to know that, having written nicely to the Photobucket team, they have responded by e-mail, and re-instated the image in question.

Happy days - logic and common sense win the day!

T-T - not aware of the story of that - what happened? I'm not sure I've seen Andrew do any work that may have been seen by some to cause any offence at all... :

If they were the "Leaver's Day" series that I cannot see (have not yet been able to see), then that's interesting...
