As an outsider (artist by hobby only) would like to point out another community (little if at all known here) that has flourished for decades against adversed odds. The USPA (United States Parachute Association, we (USPA) have servived being regulated by the FAA and others by only one means, we 'regulate ourselves'. When a couple plane crashes in the early 1990's almost lost our right to continue being an indepent, self-regulated society it was "us" the skydivers who made changes to satisfy those who sought to regulate us. I know this is rather off-topic but open your minds for a moment, if you don't want others making your rules then you have to make the rules yourself. As for CP, well that's just plain sick wether it's photos or "animated" pics. BUT this issue of CP MUST be defined. As in the case of poor Thorne, that is just plain rediculas as 'that' is not porn nor "children". It's history, mythology, fantasy, and art. And not at all 'ill-taste' except to ones with already warped minds. Is destroying all of Van Gue's (sorry bout the spelling) or repainting the 16th Chaple or burning all the work of famous artist and writer's work going to stop CP, NO! There is No Relationship!. But, yes, I think the 3D art community does need to defend agianst those who would consider using such things as Poser, etc from doing 'animated' versions of CP. The problem I see here is that you all seem to regulate this already. I have yet to see any sick-o's using these fine models to depict children in porn type sick images (thankfully) but YES, we need the base naked models to creat the final art outcome. It's a strange and twisted world we have ALL come to but to ban art and take away the "tools" that make art will only have disasterous outcomes. And money greedy, single-minded lawyers and 'sue-happy' individuales don't make things any easier. It will take the communities as a whole to patrol against any such perpetrators and crusify them when found, BUT at the same time Do NOT, and I repeat DO NOT turn it into a "witch-hunt" where inocent folk like Thorne become victems. That too will only lead down a road of disaster.
