As I remember (and I could be wrong), they both were, and the merchant putting out the V2 texture was under the impression that if he heavily reworked it (which, truth be said, he did — the infamous freckles were visible but under three or four more layers of post work), it was okay. And people went ballistic on all sides.

But those were the days when there were relatively few products, and people were very territorial. As a mod at PoserPros, I had to assess whether or not a certain lighting set series was the same as another — both were on sale. Vendor A asked me to go as deep as I could into the make up of Vendor B's lights to confirm whether or not they'd been stolen from him. Lighting being pretty mathematical, it was easy to determine that yes, Vendor B had. But freckles? An entirely different story.... LOL
