My memory is a bit hazy, but iirc, initially when LJ wasn't sure what their final policy was going to be, it didn't matter if the art was locked as long as someone objected to it. So mods got pretty nervous when it came to art. I think all the art at pornish_pixies was also deleted after the community was re-instated. snape_potter just locked everything. That one I know for sure since I was one of the mods back then. Well, and now, too. ;D
