Thanks again for your input... First of all for James... I don't trace anything... My friend asked if I could put the two children in a picture of winnie the pooh. I draw all the characters first from books so they are not exact, scan them into the computer and redraw them in Xara. Although I can draw most of the characters from my head anyway. Everyone in the world with the exception of yourself will know that the characters are not my design or creation so they know they're copied from some source. However I still drew the pictures... Maybe next time I'll put in that I didn't take the photos, they were emailed to me... In case you were unaware, many artists copy other artists work and get there ideas from other peoples art.
