It seems like you are sexually depressed, closetted sexomaniac who hasn't gotten laid for decades. Just get yourself a blow job to let some steam off...will you so you don't have to flood your blog with crap like that. Animated porn/sex ads..have been around for decades get a grip!! We all can see it running out of your ears.. Mike

But i think the ad is not a problem... Its two people kissing, and well we see that every where, tv, movies, on the bus, in the coffee shop, in front of work.... I just don't see the problem with the ad.

In YouTube you can show a girl wearing a thong but you can't show a nipple. I imagine some of the most popular streams in ustream are of beautiful woman wearing next to nothing. Thus in many ways it could be called contextual... Plus virtual world's kind of appeal to people who maybe don't really fit in the real world so maybe stuff like this gives them some sort of connection they need to survive.
