I know Praxis just mentioned it below (but did not specifically spell it out in his subject header, but the US Supreme Court has ruled positively for those who wish to depict "virtual" children, including 3D graphics. Here is the link: http://www.cnn.com/2002/LAW/04/16/scotus.virtual.child.porn/index.html - Ray

Yup, I just posted in in the forum news too. How long do you think it will be before someone comes out with a "genital morph" retrofit for the millennium kids? (kidding)

I whooped at work when my mainpage, which is 'my yahoo', came up, and that was on the headlines.

A good decision on a bad law. Notice they didn't challenge the "morph real children's pictures" part of the law, which is much more defensable by the DOJ. As one of the justices noted, they were basically creating a thought crime. It is hard to see how this law would allow persecution of real criminals and none of the other laws against child porn or rape? But it would shut down 'Romeo and Juliet' pretty damn efficently, given the 15 year jail sentence. With regard to the mill. kids, well, as the kids are based on Vicky I would suspect that it is a trival task with morphmanager. Hopefully nobody will feel inclined to post their "masterpiece" so they have to get squished.
