According to Thorne, his motivation for pulling his wonderful downloads had nothing to do with moving them "to a store near you." Rather, as I understand the issue, they were pulled because Thorne was tired of fending off hysterical, irate decency crusaders, who accused him of somehow enabling the makers of Poser kiddie porn. An absurd charge, of course--Thorne's work is a sweet little song to playful innocence and beauty, and has nothing at all to do with pornography, child or otherwise. I was frankly appalled and saddened when I heard he'd shut down--seems to me, any determined and minimally skilled Poser user could, with easily available morphs, make their own anatomically correct, child-like figures and do nasty things with them. Should we then demand that Poser 4 be pulled from the shelves? Ridiculous.
