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.

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.

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!!!

That's too bad. If someone made something using a design of my own, I'd
feel
very flattered. Sometimes I borrow things from other Lugnet-ers, and I
always try to give credit when I do. Beyond that... what's the big deal?

Oh, Mladen...I'm so disappointed.
Next, I suppose you'll be holding your breath until everyone does what you
want?

My respect for your designs remains unchanged.
My respect for *you* just went in the tank.

I really hope you can learn to let others embrace your work and enjoy it in
the ways that they like best.

Don't want people to use your designs?  Pull them down.  Keep them to
yourself.  Oh, and while you're at it, cut yourself off from the LUGNET
community, because here, sharing is what it's all about.

I truly hope you change your mind.
