A work is censored when the important parts are either pixelated as to be unrecognizable or completely covered by something opaque (can't see through). The opaque covering includes shapes such solid bars, circles, rectangles, hearts, etc. The censoring is mostly used for obscuring genitalia such as the penis or the vulva or breasts, although other parts of the body can be censored as well. The censoring can also be done on anything within the image, not just the characters themselves. For example, text can be censored or blurred or even parts of the environment.
