[QUOTE="dcarr, post: 2657235, member: 4781"]Hands are useless without a brain to control them. People without the use of their hands can still be creative. People without the use of their brain are not creative. :wacky: I have to use my hand to manipulate the mouse when sculpting. Nothing is automatic. Every contour has to be defined manually, in free-form fashion. Digital clay is no different than physical clay in that regard. Here is a drawing that I did by brain (and hand), using physical colored pencils. I could also produce the same sort of thing using a "paint" program where every stroke of the mouse is equivalent to the stoke of a pencil. [IMG]http://www.designscomputed.com/coin_pics/dream_leopard_1024.jpg[/IMG] So, I will use whatever tools I want and that is the way it is. I never stated that I thought the Gallery Mint dies were illegal. I pointed out that, on the surface, it might appear that any such dies would be illegal according to one specific statute (which was apparently conflicted by later legislation). I never stated that I was waiting for information to come out [I]from the Treasury Department[/I]. The two sentences were intended to be independent events. Anyway, I did wait for more information to come out before proceeding.[/QUOTE]
