I'm also confused as to why you mentioned you ran out of money to commission things, as you asking for people to join your group and pay you? Or are saying their won't be new pictures because your broke and you only commission them?

yeah, working on another name agree with the unfortunate choice of names
also don't want to use mythos virus because lots of other people have already used that....
played with calling them "fantasias" as a play off of "fantasy girls" but eh...
and the mentioning "no money" is the second reason, no new pictures coming...well, unless someone else makes them....wouldn't say no

not as such...when if I do the stories, it'll be sometime after the initial wave of infections for the first part....though might do the as yet unnamed sphinx's infection and such (as the first infection)
I'm planning on changing the name "slut virus" is basically what some of the laborers connected to the movie studio that created it called it, and originally I just did it as a sort of excuse for putting anime characters in sexy cosplay for no particular reason and the concept came out more silly and interesting than that
as indicated some thoughts:
fantasy virus and typecast virus don't really seem to work
virus alone doesn't work
I'm aiming at PG-13 comedic.
Slut Virus kinda worked because of the inappropriate juxtaposition...but not the image I want to give when I go commercial
also, there are some behavior compels but not directly at spreading the disease
at first, the infection can spread aerosol, but humanity adjusts quickly....trying to keep around a 10% pop of fantasy women, with the remainder being immune to casual infection (80% pop) or immune totally (remaining 10%)
for some their compelling behavior would enhance things...for example, sphinxes are really interested and obsessed with riddle competitions....which involves a spiritual connection when they go full out....so a sphinx is more likely to infect a normal without thinking about it by getting into a full competition...which is how they infect other women
but vampires only bite people they REALLY care about, so less likely to happen...

I do have a lot of time on this, I have three novels ahead of me NOT including stuff I'm being commissioned to write, before I get to it
so....any suggestions on names?
