I guess I could model some 3D letters into the model.  A big LDraw logo.  Any
suggestions?

I don't believe there are (or could be any) legal ramifications from you
entering a Lego model in a POV contest.  Just don't render 'Lego' on the
studs is what I'd say, or make it too small so its unreadable.  But TLG
doesn't get upset at us for publishing our renderings on our sites, so why
would they for publishing one on the POV site?

A man dreamt he was a car, and woke up exhausted.  Later he recalled that
the dream was a weird auto body experience.
