Just to be sure, is this the image you're seeing: https://krita.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/electrichearts_...

That's the one that comes up on the splash screen for me, and if you see that as in any way "suggestive", that's disturbing to me.

Would you have the same problem if they had Mickey Mouse in their splash screen? After all, he is topless and arguably more suggestive than Kiki is in any way.

No that one’s on the less suggestive side of the various Krita splash screens. (Still not something I would want to hang a poster of at work.) Do a Google image search for “Krita splash screen” and look at the broader set. These are more suggestive than the one in your comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35773999 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35773357

I’m not going to touch the Mickey comment, that’s weird.

That one just seems unprofessional in so much as it is child-like. There is another where she is visibly wearing garters, which is not child-like for the past more than a century.
