I still feel a bit mixed about that. If it's done right, as in the way professionals do it with art, I think it won't do damage. The biggest problem is that there's no disclosure, especially of the method. And without that, here's no way to get a feel for the actual skill of who did it.
As I've said many times, if it's so damn legit and acceptable and accepted as Brent claims, why not disclose it?
