Isaac, yes, there is a difference between innocent family album pics - but not always. There have been several high profile cases in this country in recent years where some unfortunate has been dragged through the legal system and the popular press for taking "inappropriate" pictures of their own children. Under the current climate of paedophile hysteria in the UK any and all pictures of children or child like creatures are viewed with suspicion. And yes, UK law makers are that stupid. Now, I'll ask politely that you refrain from accusing me of trying to stir the mud. As for the matter of my opinion, I'll state it again, since you didn't seem to get it - I don't like faery pics because I find 'em boring, I don't give a damn if it's represented by a child figure or an adult, to me it's a twee image of some "sweet" creature with wings. Turtle's pic above is the best take on the genre, and I'd prefer more of those.
