Also light is invalid theme, 😂, Good.

The default filter will not show you any nudity. It’d show spoilered suggestive images, but you still have to take an action (clicking the spoiler) to see them.
 
But as stated previously - we are targeting this site towards a more mature audience. Plus on Derpibooru there was a lot of debate about ratings, since a lot of stuff ended up sitting on a borderline between safe/suggestive or suggestive/questionable. Re-hashing it should make it a lot easier to be consistent too.

First, that’s just wrong. Right now you can search safe + nudity and get results. Even if those are just errors it shows people obviously aren’t going to to use the tags the exact way you want. As I also said, the difference is subjective between safe and suggestive. At least on derpibooru you could be sure that if there was nudity it wouldn’t be suggestive.
 
It’s been stated previously that you could just filter out the nudity, but what about when artists don’t include all the right tags to filter out. In case case you would still see nudity.
 
There is nothing wrong with targeting a more mature audience, but that doesn’t mean ratings change. To use an analogy, an R rated movie targeted at adults doesn’t mean that they can drop the rating down just because it’s just meant for adults. It’s still rated R.
 
I get that you don’t think that artistic nudity shouldn’t be considered questionable. But unless you draw a hard line that isn’t subjective (such as the presence of nipples, balls, etc) there will be images that slip through.
 
You could always introduce another rating in between questionable and suggestive for nudity. Or you can introduce a spoiler filter for images that show nudity.

Please don’t keep middle alignment as default and remember to add an option to allow selecting of what is preferred.
 
Also ratings should really not change meanings just because “why the hell not”.
 
I do like the purple color scheme tho.

Thank you for taking it into consideration. I’m not trying to be a butt here, I’m just trying to help with the tags while it is still easy to fix them. If you want, I’m willing to give you more feedback.

Centered layout is the default from now on, left-side layout is deprecated forever.  
Rating tags were changed based on our experience with the furry fandom in general.  
Thanks, I like purple too, it’s my fave color :3
 
 
If you want left-side layout back, use a userscript:  
// ==UserScript==
// @name Not center
// @version 0.1
// @author stsyn
// @include /http[s]:\/\/furbooru\.[org|net|com]/
// ==/UserScript==
(function() {
‘use strict’;
document.getElementById(‘container’).classList.remove(‘layout–center-aligned’);
})();

That doesn’t even make any sense. I saw an option last night. At least there’s a script, but people should not need a script for a basic option.

Well in my own experience I don’t want it to lead to gender discrepancies or a DA situation where eveything with naked females is considered non-explicit while anything with naked males is rated higher just on principle.  
It’s hard as hell to make a definitive ‘artistic nudity’ stance and I hope you’re prepared for the struggles that can cause over just saying “genitals is explicit and nipples is questionable”. Artists will call anything artistic nudity if they can, even if it isn’t.
 
Edit: Also script doesn’t seem to work.

I'm not a furry, but
I really like the purple interface, it’s a bit more unique and pleasant to the eye. While I like the concept of an ear as logo, the combination of colors and gradients make it a little bit difficult to discern what is it with this theme applied, which is the default now.
 
I did a little coloring test here with the existing .svg file

Neat~!  
I’m also a bit unsure about the changes on ratings, but I don’t think this is the proper thread for that discussion.

Still struggling with that script.
 
So if I’m correct, nudity without sex/masturbation/fluids is questionable? So a basic vulva or a sheathed dick is questionable, but add juices to either one or an erection or touching/manipulation is explicit?

I like your edit. Tho IMO I’d pick a tail for an icon, an ear is fine too. I just think a tail is more general, easy to understand, and cleaner.

Thanks, though a tail sounds like it could be fun and dynamic, although they may tend to be a bit long so it would need to be clear as well as an icon. Otherwise I could think a fluffy chest but I’m not sure.
