Just to throw something else into the mix: We need to take a step back and look at the media we are using: it is a graphics application on a computer. Yes, it can produce "photo-realistic" images, but that fact it this: it is NOT a picture. NOT people (especially children) were "harmed" (or even used) to make the images. These are geometric meshes with coloring applied to it. When fully rendered, it appears to be a person. But, it appears to be- it has never been (and will never be) an actual person. No photographs were used in the product of the final render. (Well, maybe a photo was used as reference, but it's not part of the end result.) Technically, these characters are 2 or 3 years old. Vicky and Mike are around a year old (roughly). Stephanie is a few months old. Going by their "age", does that mean there should be NO nudes of them for the next 17 years (until they are "legal adults" in USA)? And for that matter, do we have the "right" to make nude images of them? After all, if they're "under age", how can they give "legal consent" to have their likeness posted on the Internet? Can anyone see how absurd the whole "computer generated models" as child porn" can get? --John
