  Re: Mecha Legs
 
jeez kiddies- isn't it about time we all started playing nicey nicey? i mean i may be a newbie or whatever, but copyrights and patents? what the hell are we talking about here? mark and mladen both of you do awesome work- who cares who "steals" from (...)

  Re: Mecha Legs
 
(...) This _really_ doesn't apply. Copyright covers published works -- you certainly have copyright over the image you posted to brickshelf, but that's all. A patent might apply to the design, but you don't have one of those. Also, even for things (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.underground)
 
  Re: Mecha Legs
 
(...) Yes, I do copy ideas. I try to give credit when I do. See my recent .space post regarding the Storm Owl (named for a Mega Man X4 character, not anything of yours.) where I give Colin full credit for his engine design. I also designed the (...)

You know, at the rate I am turning off newsgroups lately I'm not going to have much to read pretty soon. Lets calm down folks, Please.

  Re: Mecha Legs
 
(...) Somehow I doubt that copyright laws apply in this instance. This isn't a case of someone stealing an idea and making money from it. This is a case of someone wanting to use someone else's design for their own enjoyment. I agree that you should (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Mecha Legs
 
- Insert 4 letter word - YOU WHO ---- do u think you are Mark! You copy so many ideas from everyone here and barely give credit (Storm Owl sure looks and sounds like my own OWL MOC)!

  Re: Mecha Legs
 
<CLAPPING> Beautiful, nicely worded James! I let James use my models, because he has the decency to first ask me before he does anything, if he could actually USE my model. Then, when he put it on his wonderfully organized and cool website, he (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  RE: Mecha Legs
 
(...) I think that Mladen would have difficulty stopping them, but he doesn't have to post DATs or endorse their actions. I've used some of his VTOL models, and I think he'd be right to share what he has, but he doesn't have to. We do have copyright (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Mark's Lego Creations Update!
 
Thanks! But that wasn't the VTOL I just updated. :^) Scroll to the bottom and check out the Storm Owl... that's the new one. ~Mark (24 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Mecha Legs
 
(...) Actually that's not true. Anyone can copy your designs if they want to. You don't have to like it, but that's how it is. (...) That's too bad. If someone made something using a design of my own, I'd feel very flattered. Sometimes I borrow (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.underground)

anyone know if he is still building? he did such awesom work, but haven't seen anything new from him in a while... just checking (24 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Mecha Legs
 
i'd have to agree with mladen on this one- the whole point of lego is creativity. i'd take the same approach i do with TLC models- build a copy first to familiarize yourself with any new pieces and their useage, then proceed to invent your own uses.

  Re: Mark's Lego Creations Update!
 
Mark- one word: STOKED! i've always dug your stuff (the Maddog especially), but the VTOL Dropship is magnificent- all the things i personally strive for in building- clean, detailed but not overly "tekkie", functional, structural, and the (...)

  Re: Mecha Legs
 
I would reconsider if he was the only person to ask me, but I get 10 e-mails each day from people asking me how they love my designs and want to use them in their own. Most of the messages I reply to with a yes, but this time no, this is my model, (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.underground)  
 
  Re: Got Mech?
 
thanks! i was going for the whole "docking bay" look- note the "markings on walls and floor- hopefully i'll have my site going pretty soon, with in-depth info on all the mechs, some spacecraft, some dioramas, the whole shpeel. it's too bad the pic (...)

  Re: Got Mech?
 
(...) Very slick. Nice legs. (I mean the mecha, not you! :-) Actually, the whole model is great. The gantry is a nice touch. :-, BTW -- great background, too. The texture really adds to the atmosphere of the pictures. Cheers, - jsproat (24 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Mecha Legs
 
(...) Mladen, please reconsider. One of the best ways for our models to improve is to promote cross-pollenation of ideas. As long as credit to you is duely given, can you see any possible disadvantage to letting others use your ideas? Cheers, - (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.underground)
