  Re: My site is down :-(
 
(...) Oh? By means of a court case, sure, but can they legally stop you before you even register the name? IE is there some sort of law in place to proactively prevent me from squatting a trademarked named site? I mean, sure, once Lego finds out (...)

  Re: My site is down :-(
 
(...) You're not using a standard character in the second case there, so I can't tell what you mean exactly, but I'm assuming you mean TM. The distinction isn't actually the one you're making; the full r-in-a-circle symbol means that the trademark (...) (21 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: My site is down :-(
 
(...) Slight correction: You can't copyright names. However, they are covered by trademarks or service marks. The distinction is important, as they follow different rules than copyright does. (21 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: My site is down :-(
 
(...) Yes they can. It not only blatantly contains the word "LEGO" in the domain name, but it makes an untrue statement of sponsorship, thereby encouraging anyone who casually stumbles across the website to assume that TLC does actually sponsor that (...)

  New MOC: 6,000 piece Empire State Building
 
All: I have just completed a 4.5 foot tall model of The Empire State Building: (URL) new model remains very faithful to the design of the real Empire State Building. I had to "fudge" things, obviously... For example, the scale would make a single (...) (21 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.town, lugnet.build.arch) !! 
 
  Re: My site is down :-(
 
(...) Legally, Lego can't necessarily stop someone else from getting the domain "ThisSiteIsSponsored...Lego.com". However, in some countries (US at least, I assume many others), Lego has a copyright to their name. So they could take it to court and (...)

  Re: New Pics: Buildings!Buildings!Buildings! Exotic Colors:-)
 
(...) Thanks for the compliments, Josh. BTW, who said I *didn't* make any containers? ;-) Though I haven't photographed them yet, these Maersk containers from my Ambassador car (which are shown with Harry Potter light blue): (URL) have all been (...)

  Re: New Pics: Buildings!Buildings!Buildings! Exotic Colors:-)
 
(...) lol Mind? I'd be honored to have an MOC of mine inspire a part of the GFLTC layout! But beware-- that building took almost a year to complete (acquiring parts), and not cheaply either:-/ It is also by far and away the most delicate of all my (...)

  Re: New Pics: Buildings!Buildings!Buildings! Exotic Colors:-)
 
(...) I agree that the log bricks create a "neat" effect. For those who are reading along, here is a great example of what Stefan is talking about: (URL) thought the color of the frame and the facade are the same color, the indentation of the log (...)

  Re: My site is down :-(
 
tobbe you are right but what about the words which just contain "lego" letters in polish there is a word "legowisko" which means "lair" if i name my site www.legowisko.com it is not really connected to TLC so this is the normal regular word of (...)

  Re: My site is down :-(
 
Soon we have a new internet provider. Than I have room enough to put my files on their server (no banners or pop-ups!). But that will take at least a month. Most anoying is that my page is linked from many other pages to (...) (21 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: My site is down :-(
 
(...) It's not a good idea to have the word lego in the domain name. See TLC's fair play policy: (URL) LEGO Trademark cannot be used in an Internet Address The LEGO trademark should not be incorporated into an Internet address. Internet addresses (...)

  My site is down :-(
 
My website isn’t on-line anymore. About a year ago I hosted my html-files on Jan-Tore’s account (www.legotrucks.com). Today I saw there weren’t any visitors on my site. When I surfed to it I saw the domain name doesn’t exist anymore L I haven’t (...) (21 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build)

  BioniWars: Jango Fetoa, Intergalactic Bricky Hunter
 
This is easily one of the better MOCs in my BioniWars series, and if he hadn't turned out so well I probably wouldn't have ever expanded the series beyond the first few: (URL) (21 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, lugnet.announce, lugnet.build, lugnet.starwars)  
 
  Re: Little walker called Jehukal
 
(...) Sylvi, I really like the flexibility of this lil fella. I too have not seen that leg design before. Interesting use of that part for the feet. I think the airtanks and scimitar are nice touches. -Andrew GardenSLUG (21 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  BioniWars: BatToa Droid
 
Getting into the more meaty BioniWars MOCs, I present the BatToa Droid, loosely based on the TOA design. Very loosely. Shaft Windu would have fallen down laughing if he saw an army of these guys advancing on him...
