If you can't get to porn, make porn come to you.
Well, here's a picture of a babe for today: http://www.baberuth.com/images/gallery/lg/rutb045.jpg

Are there? Babe Ruth died in 1929, 73 years ago. I'm no expert at copyright law, but I'd think most pictures of him would be in the public domain by now. Anyway, a picture of Babe Ruth on a Babe-a-day web site would probably be fair use under the satire rule. Though I've never been a baseball fan, whenever people start talking about "babes" I always visualize Babe Ruth. Not quite the stimulating image intended, I guess.

BTW, Babe Ruth died in 1948.
The person who took the picture would have to have been dead for 75 years, right?

It's pretty complicated.
The rules change too - so there really is no reason to learn them. The shortest summation that I have heard is this: the rules will always be such that anything to do with Mickey Mouse is fully protected. Whether that's right or not is debatable, but so far nobody has gone to bat for poor Mickey's freedom.
Wrong. Check out the Supreme Court's current docket.
01-618. Yes? But this mostly covers retroactive copyright extension; Disney still has a year to bribe our politicians to pass another law to keep poor Mickey in chains.
<sarcasm> Something they've done fairly well. There's hardly any pirated Mickey Mouse stuff at all. </sarcasm>
Well, he used to be a major film star, but he hasn't done much other than appear in ads for decades. About the best line he's had is "Howdy! Welcome to Disneyland!" Quite a come-down for a mouse who in his youth shook up the industry. I think most people today see him less as a character than as a corporate icon--another MGM lion. I sure he's suffering from major artistic frustration. This will be proven when and if the copyright ever expires. I expect we'll see him appearing in a wave of very diverse features. He'll even get to do those sex scenes he's always wanted to do.
The threesome with Minnie and Clarabelle, for instance...
there was, a while ago, some 'art' of *all* teh disney chracters inovlved with each other in a veritable cornucopia of sex acts. and, the print glowed under ultraviolet light 1the print was probably 11x17. it just didn't register on me then how valuable a work of art could be. i'd hate to have to guess what one of those would bring at auction these days. it was totally hilarious! anybody else remember that?
I've seen some pieces from Linser (the guy who does Dawn) of a few of the Disney characters in compromising positions. Beast and Beauty doing the nasty, Arial just looking pert 'n' nekkid, etc.
certain porn sites dealing with cartoons are aswarm with disney characters in compromising positions.
Well, it's no secret that many Disney animators are just.. dirty- minded and a little sex-preoccupied. A friend of mine said he knew someone who was working at Disney and was describing to his co-workers a Disney toon porn video, completing it with imitations of the characters, such as Mickey saying, "Fuck off, Goofy!" He was fired that day because Roy Disney happened to walk in.
Disney characters are also popular subjects for 'fan art' by people with weird kinky attractions to cartoon animals.
I once went to a speech by the writer of the book "Who Framed Roger Rabbit". He was also heavily involved with the making of the movie. He said they drew a scene in Toontown that went like this: A long limo pulls up to the corner on a dark street. The back door opens, and a figure gets out. The voice of the Big Bad Wolf comes from the back seat, and says "Thanks Toots." Then the limo speeds away, and the figure that got out walks into the light, where you see that it's Snow White, and she's counting money. They put the scene in and none of the Disney execs seemed to catch it in the first few rounds of editing. I think he said it made it through what was supposed to be the final review, and then a few days later they got a call saying "You can't show Snow White taking money for sex!", and that was it.
Last night while watching the Discover channel there was something about the first half of the 1900s and morality and so on... At one point while talking about the 20s or 30s (I think) they showed several little cartoon books that had maybe ten pages- and all showed cartoon characters in compromising poses- many of them showed Mickey and Minnie getting it on. So this stuff is hardly new.
