I was not trying to argue for censorship, I am very vocal about it (you 
can find online references of me arguing *for* legit uses of the nazi 
flag or nudity), I was arguing for quality and diversity over quantity.

Have a look at http://www.fedoraforum.org/gallery/browseimages.php?c=2
Would you want a package with all those images? How about instead a 
collection with 100 or 50 of the images with the largest user ratings?

For me the ideal scenario would be the old idea of Background Channels 
http://www.gnome.org/~clarkbw/blog/GNOME/background_channels with some 
channels provided by a hypotetic art.fedoraproject.org website
