That's really old stuff. The Coles Notes version of the story, IIRC, is like his: someone had created a texture for V2 that used freckles off the back of the hand and face from one made for Posette. People went ape-sh*t, with detailed close up images of the freckles in question and whether or not said freckles had come from another texture altogether.

It was pretty wild.
