Hi all, I am just posting this notice to anyone that may have models on the following page: http://xbot.homepage.com/Mutantrons.html This person emailed me the url to this page, and to my surprise, it had models that I have seen here on Lugnet in the past, and to my shock, it had one of my models on it. I was never contacted for permission, and so I assume no one else was. His email address is: Optimusprime1897@aol.com I am going to demand that he remove my images from his page, but I think that anyone that is bothered by someone stealing other people's creative works feel free to email him a polite message informing him that this is Not Cool. thanks, Joel Kuester http://minispy.tripod.com
