Your view on tracing... - Page 2

Well recently, I've been seeing some people being attacked for tracing images. What I'd like to know, is if you would consider this acceptable, since I'm thinking about doing it:
Basically, using a pre-existing image and then creating an animation on top of that. So I'd use the traced image (or perhaps even the original) and then just have to animate the boobs growing or whatever. I'd obviously state that the original image was not mine, but my question is this: would you guys see it as kosher? Is it acceptable to do something like that?
The main reasons for this would be twofold: to save time and to increase the overall quality of the picture, while perhaps learning a bit about drawing in the process.
