I don't know who you are talking about nor am I saying what they did is right but could it be that the people in question: a) are underage and don't completely understand what they have done b) did not indent to 'steal' the MOC ideas but (...)

There is no doubt that anyone with a 286 and a paint program and manipulate a persons work. But make (...) (22 years ago, 15-May-02, to lugnet.general)

I've found that at least half the time something like this gets done; especially on the net, the "offender" isn't (...) (22 years ago, 15-May-02, to lugnet.general)

The gallery in question is no where to be found and the accusational images the 2 VLC people posted ( rightly so imho )are erased as well. I agree that it was a (...)

| | | | | | | | If the person was really making a website for commentary on MOCs then he really doesn't need permission to use the pictures. However, it is considered polite to ask. Posting them up on Brickshelf is another matter. Hard to say it was a "fair use" (...) (22 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.general)
