Nude photo tasteful, but some readers still appalled (http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/editorial/outlook/4374098.html)
Even when its censored, some people still lose their minds over nudity. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/no.gif I don't get the Chronicle, so can someone whose has seen the picture please tell us about it.

I have been in the graphic design/advertising business for more than 30 years. It is clear to me that when it comes to marketing and promotion, there are those who think within the box and those who think outside the box.
Regardless of your perspective, the bottom line is sales. The question is, have you separated your product or message beyond the expectations of your audience and potentially "lost" the sale when you display a tastefully unclad woman in the ad? This could be called "responsible" censorship.

The Houston Chronicle had an article on being baby boomers reaching retirement. It dealt with how active the age group. The picture was of a 55 year old female model. She is nude sitting on the floor with her arms and legs stratigically placed. The picture is very well done. A few people complained to the paper.
