Virtual child pornography depicts purely fictional characters (for example, lolicon manga). Pseudo-photographic child pornography is produced by digitally manipulating non-sexual images of real minors to make pornographic material. Laws against production, distribution and consumption of child pornography generally separate images into three categories: real, pseudo, and virtual. Legal frameworks around fictional pornography depicting minors vary depending on country and nature of the material involved.
