Thanks a lot for the insightful comment!
I thought of something similar to obscenity.

Thanks again. Great you LOVE the site :-)

Starbucks removed the nipples from their logo because, according to the United States Patent & Trademark Office, the woman with nipples would have been obscene and therefore unfit for registration. Registering the mark gives it protection, so they dropped the nipples. Bubble Project is asking all the right questions though!! :)

P.S. LOVE your site! I will be visiting often!!
