This is a really important issue, I think. Quite aside from the very valid moral/ethical issues at stake, it's very frustrating as a consumer to buy models which are later revealed to be copied from something in a movie or game. I don't do fan art!! Something worn by a character in a game is completely useless to me. Unfortunately, as I don't have my finger on the pulse of the game industry, I often have no idea what the inspiration for a particular product is. I rely on the integrity of the Poser vendor...sometimes to my detriment. I recently was enjoying an extremely popular film for the first time and saw...to my horror...a model I had bought a few months before, flitting merrily around on the screen. I now cannot possibly use that model, excellent though it is. (And I remember how excited I was when it came out, too. If only I had known!) I cannot claim to know the ins and outs of copyright law, but I agree with compiler that I would really like to know when something is a "lookalike". Thanks again, Lady Littlefox, for raising this whole issue. You are one of the most original artists making Poser models today, and they just keep getting better and better. I sincerely hope you achieve all of your dreams, though our community will be much the poorer on the day you leave us to follow a different road. :-) Kimberly
