Corel Corporation included vector drawings of a gazillion celebrities and newsworthy figures in thier clipart collections for years, and may still. The key there is that they always included fairly strong language in thier license agreement that denied any connection with and put the burdon of licensing the image of said celebrity for any commercial or questionable use squarely on the end user. You could likely get away with a similar arrangement... Basically, legally, saying "I've given you the tools to create this image, but it's up to you to see to the legal aspects if you wish to use these tools in any commercial or publicly displayed work." That way, you're disavowing any more responsibility for misuse than, say, the makers of the jacket in my previous example. ~Honor
