Khai, I realize that one polygon was an extreme example, I just brought up that question because you have to draw a line somewhere. At some point, the number of polygons WILL be recognizable by the original artist, just as textures can be easily recognizable by the original texturer. But as someone pointed out, you can also make those recognizable points UNrecognizable by moving the points around. So, if you are starting with something that someone else did, and trying to change what it looks like, why not just do the whole thing yourself? (Not meant to point fingers at anyone ... just a general rhetorical question.)
