First, I want it to make it clear that I am a big fan of  Joey Lawrence and I think this is just one of his many great pictures (recalled to my attention by  Deen); it is certainly not my intention to take any merit away from Joey or this picture.
The question is: would the edit be legal under the current 'advanced editing' rules considering that 'zoom blur' effect was used thus providing a striking effect that was probably not present in the original?

| Last time I dealt with the SC, they told me it's not so much what you do, but how it affects the overall image. Adding that blur is adding a new element, that could've otherwise been achieved with a different technique. So I don't think it'd be legal... |

In other words, "no"?

| Correct. Adding a motion blur to a static scene has never been legal in Advanced and that hasn't changed. |

It was apparently legal in April, 2005, though...

Huh?! Advanced Editing IV (ruleset the 'Mood' challenge ran under). |

Lol. It even says used zoom blur in the notes.

Touché. That one was essentially a tie vote, though. You probably wouldn't get the same opinion with a different group of people.
In 2005, Advanced edits were judged by the oft-maligned "major element" rule, and other motion blurs were certainly DQ'd (I can think of at least one other old one that was allowed). While the rule itself hasn't really changed, creating motion where there was none is generally regarded as a significant change, and motion was specifically called out in later rules for that reason. You could always submit a ticket for opinions.
