"P.S. For the record - the fact that a morph was made from a picture & not a mesh comparison does not remove "copyright" from the equation."
If a person can't look at a picture and recreate it (for some purpose), then how did AMD get away with legally reverse-engineering Intel's processor? The courts determined looking at what something did and figuring out how to do each function by "going backwards" was legal. So, wouldn't copying a pose (from a picture) be even less of a copyright infringement? And if so, wouldn't reverse-engineering a morph [edit] be legal?
