I'd been busy the last few weeks and not much out here... so I come late to the party:

As an affiliate with Met-Art I have access to their member section, and as an European I'm problably not as narrow-minded as the US laws (reflecting the thinking of many US citizens) - hence my comments:

1. in recent years there's been no content published by Met-Art which really looks "under-age". You might find some sets (5,6,?) in the pre-2000 section which are a little dubious, but these are all pictures well below the quality of today and hardly worth another look (plus: they'd been published over and over on TGPs at the time = they are well known).

2. Met-Art's address of business in NEW YORK/USA - would they really risk this exposure to US litigation if they were doing anything non-conform with US laws?

3. you can find heaps of sets which are of high aesthetic value featuring models well in their twenties - those are the ones I pick to promote Met-Art! The decision to sign-up with the site is in any case with the surfer, and if I don't push anything even remotely suggesting 'young' then I don't believe that I'm fostering this mind-set...

Getting listings with Met-Art content is another story, though: they are a little over-exposed, plus many sites have them blacklisted (same way of thinking I find in several posts above)...
