I completely agree here.  I believe it was clearly noted at the beginning of
this thread that we were not going to copy Lego's designs to avoid any
copyright issues.  All the stickers are going to be custom work.

I don't think we're planning to sell for profit either. To me
this whole idea is about us coming together to get the
unit cost down for production of the stickers, so that we
can all have professional-quality -CUSTOM- stickers to
use with our minifigs.

Again, I completely agree with Ed here.  I've been pretty aboveboard with
the whole process.  I posted the *at cost* prices for a couple of realistic
quantities.  Ideally, people here would buy enough to cover production of at
least 250 sheets, because I'd hate to be stuck with a couple hundred of
them!  :)

Sure, we'd want to sell off as many
as we can, because more sheets means a lower unit
cost. But I don't think at any time did we ever discuss a
mark-up to make a profit. It's all about the lego community
working together. :)

Exactly!  Kevin and the other artistic types are producing the images, Kyle
made an egroups site so that we can take a poll there later, and I'm
coordinating with the printer and volunteering to distribute.  This is for
fun and to enrich our collections - nothing more.
