  Re: Contributor Agreement License details
 
(...) All of the parts authors would have to agree to that, because (and my knowledge is limited so if I mistake any assumptions let me know) the copyright of the part file seems to be held by the parts author not the LDraw Parts Library or any (...)

  Re: Contributor Agreement License details
 
(...) There is one significant difference between LDraw and Photoshop in that you pay for the right to use Photoshop without giving credit. That said I don't think we need to vandalise our images to put the credit in but I'm not completely averse to (...) (18 years ago, 18-Jan-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) In publishing, that type of info is usually contained in a colophon, the use of which is sadly fading from popularity. Some few web sites include this level of detail in their "About" section.

As one of the CA's authors, my view on this is that you should state somewhere in your distribution of the image (i.e. on the web page hosting it, as a text file in a .zip, on the image itself, etc...) that the content were derived from the (...)

  Re: Contributor Agreement License details
 
(...) I agree, clarification on rendered images is needed. If a rendering using LDraw parts is a derivative work, and derivative works are required to visibly display credit, that's a problem. It won't show up on my renders; I don't burn "Credit: (...) (18 years ago, 18-Jan-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Contributor Agreement License details
 
(...) Maybe it's just me, but if renderings are considered derivative works, we need to seriously step back and think long and hard about whether or not we are OK with that. I personally think that forcing renderings to have text on them (...) (18 years ago, 18-Jan-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Thanks. It looks really bad in Lynx. Apparently Lynx doesn't like div elements (at least not when they have style information attached). Lynx also doesn't know the meaning of the tfoot element, which is a little more surprising. --Travis (18 years ago, 17-Jan-07, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I'm adding a new feature to LDView that will generate a parts list web page for any model being viewed in LDView. The HTML code that I'm generating makes heavy use of CSS, and I don't have some browsers that users might use. While my output (...) (18 years ago, 17-Jan-07, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: New LDraw Contest: POTM – Part Of The Month
