It appears to me to be rules-lawyering. *I* think the basic question is real-world imaging. Chris's image has less real-world content because the part that's a real-world image is just background. That work is fairly high on the hierarchy of manipulations. -- David Dyer-Bennet, <mailto:dd-b@xxxxxxxx>, <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <http://noguns-nomoney.com/> <http://www.dd-b.net/carry/> Pics: <http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/> <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <http://dragaera.info/>
