Sorry if anyone got that impression. Rather, I was wondering if we might be able to establish some guidelines of ethics to use as a platform from which to launch intelligent discussion. I realize that anything we might construct would not be enforceable, since this is not a private website. But, if such a construct were possible - even among just the regulars at Penny and IT - it would lend itself to offsetting the myriad of conjectures about what is or is not ethical. Does that make it more clear?

In the second -- the "rules" aren't enforceable. In several threads that pose questions about ethics in our field, I've noticed that it is impossible to do any more than argue opposing or mixed views. With a basic outline of acceptable ethical behavior - specific to our craft - one could defer to established guidelines. Other than that, I believe we're left to just argue inanities, for the sake of argument only. Whadayathink? Quote: Absolutely hilarious! Brought tears to my eyes, Bob.

Attempting to discuss "ethics in art" is a fool's game (ESPECIALLY on internet forums like this one).
Sorry. I hope this thread helps you...I really do. ;) -JF

Are we not?
Then you'll rise right before my eyes, on wings that fill the sky, like a phoenix rising!
