I'm surprised.
You seem to confuse the word tasteful with modest. This version of Poison Ivy is more modest, and it is indeed cute. But I'd say that the more complex and elaborate images of Ivy in some of the western comics are more tasteful, or should I rather say delicious? :3
Though "taste" and "tasteful" amount only to opinion. I just felt like correcting you since you seemed to think "tasteful" automatically means a more innocent beauty and thus you are subtly insulting the tastes of everyone who find something a bit more risque and trashy beautiful.
The more correct thing to say would have been calling it a more modest Ivy or alternately calling it an Ivy that is more in YOUR OWN PERSONAL taste.
Now you seem like a dick to anyone who actually understands what you said there. Just wanted to let you know.
From your friendly neighborhood word nazi douchebag. :)

Tasteful is often assumed with modesty, you slovenly caveman. Know the words you preach before attempting to lecture others.

Yeah, I wasn't thinking clearly when I wrote that. Was in a pissy mood and felt like hurting something. Too easy to let the rage seep out in my comments.
Though lack of modesty would be attributable to all the greatest things in life. Take the ceiling of the sistine chapel for example. It sure as hell isn't modest, but would you call it untasteful? Of course not. It is grand and impressive. I apologize for letting my views turn into a personal attack, though.
