Just a quick heads up. I received notice that Google is removing "sexually explicit" images from the drive along with threat of account termination. I haven't found the missing content yet (let me know if you do!). This has been a grey area concerning their TOS as nude art is permitted, but images of real humans performing sexual acts is not. I'm not sure if their image-recognition algorithms are misidentifying renders as real humans, if their definition of art is narrowing, or if content is getting mass reported, as drive links are occasionally shared on public forums. I'm looking into alternate options for hosting and will let everyone know ASAP if anything changes. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Sorry to hear google is giving you grief. I know a lot of creators use Mega for sharing work.

That sucks, your art rocks and Google will miss out if they take it down

Jay

oh no i use that drive allot for scientific purposes 🙈

Honestly this could be taken as a compliment. Your renders look so good that Google can't be sure they're not real.

I'd recommend looking into MEGA, downloads through MEGA are generally much, much faster than Drive. And Mega doesn't remove anything unless they receive direct reports, with offending content in the report directly.

Doesn't seem to be anything missing. I downloaded the entire library just in case...

Thank you guys for the recommendations! It looks like MEGA might be the way to go. The only downside is that the plans have monthly data caps. People sharing links outside patreon seems inevitable, so those might get hit.

Wo wtf! Is this a new thing Google is doing? Do they ban the acct or just delete whatever content is there?

Fuck Google.

Mega is a really good alternative based on my previous experiences with other patrons
