Since I had no intentions of using a "minifig generator", I diddn't think
you would be affected at all. I did expect some discussion about the IP issues
with TLC.

Absolutely not! I never said that! In fact what I said is that I planned
to use my scans. I think you are confusing my plan of allowing users to select
from specific minifigs and your minifig generator (clearly two different
functions). And when I asked Todd to generate the 500 figs for me I had
assumed that they were renderings, generated on the fly, not your scans (that's
the way they looked to me). The fact that (I thought) they were rendered
was why I figured they would be better quality than scans. Please read what
I say carefully before you accuse me of trying to steal something.

I think she misunderstood what you meant. She'd been up most of the night
packing for a 6:45 a.m. train and had logged in quick just to check mail,
etc. and probably wasn't expecting to encounter anything out of the ordinary.
Probably read the message with a bit of haste and/or panic...
Apologies.
