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, and no one else has the right to use it except me. My models
are supposed to inspire creativity (the reason I started my site) not copying,
LEGO is so versatile, anything can be made, so many different combinations. SO
I DON'T WANT ANYONE USING MY DESIGNS ANYMORE!!!
Mladen Pejic, over and out!
