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.

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! :)

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.
