Too much for me, too. The only use I can imagine for that many icons is multiple RPGs with the same account.

With thousands of icons, you can play "Snape" in the RPG, and have a different icon for happy Snape, sad Snape, angry Snape, sarcastic Snape, Snape-talking-to-Hermione, Snape-yelling-at-the-class, and so on. I can think of 50 or so mood icons a person might want to have; multiply by ten for different RPGS, and you have...

ummm, considerably less than a need for 5,000 icons.

I guess they'll be useful for icon design people.

But they don't allow erotic art. And they've got some whacked ideas about laws: Examples of unlawful content include but are not limited to direct threats of physical harm, stalking, any kind of pornography, and copyrighted, trademarked and other proprietary material used without proper authorization.

As used herein, "pornography" shall mean any explicit depiction or exhibition of sexual activity and/or sexual imagery that is intended to stimulate erotic, rather than PURELY aesthetic or emotional feelings.
So... erotic feelings aren't emotions? And they think it's against the law to stimulate them? And howdahell can they tell what's *intended* to stimulate erotic feelings?

(I started being conscious of photo-hosting TOS's in the wake of Strikethrough, so I'm hyper-sensitive to "no sex it's icky" rules. I understand that people who don't do erotic art may not have any problems with those rules... I'm just annoyed at the widespread prudishness.)
