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 that are covered by intellectual property law, there
is significant protection for non-commercial personal use.
But beyond all of that, this is completely contrary to the spirit of the
Lego online community. Part of the fun of it all is sharing designs and
ideas with others. Otherwise, we'd all be in our rooms playing.
