Quote - Okay here is the deal, I have noticed several figures that are related to current politicians and using the politician's names. I have no problem with this, but what I do have a problem with is that a few years back when I tried to sell a morph of a looks like _______ I was told I could not because of issues with selling likeness of a public figure.
Has the rules changed?

I don't know if the rules changed or not but there are plenty of morphs out there for many figures
that I would say are quite suspect as far as likeness goes. They usually alter the name a little
and that seems to be ok. Like if the name is the celeb Peter so and so name it Pete or if it's Jessica so and so name it Jessi etc. Personally I have nothing against look alike morphs but
I understand the need to be careful not to get into legal issues it could cause. As far as figures
go It seems to be ok. I saw those political figures you mentioned. Good question. Btw I don't
think the real political figures would have a problem with it. More publicity LOL.
