Where can I find the rules under which conditions I am allowed to use the
pictures/scans in the set reference for eBay auctions?

Naming the source of the picture is certainly promissed!


I am going to parapharase and shoot from the hip here, but these are the
guidelines as I remember them (posted long ago by Admin).  Admin can correct
me as needed.

These fit my memory too although I am not Admin.


-- Pictures from Lugnet are allowed for Ebay auctions or other purposes.  You
cannot link directly to the image, but can link to the page from which the
image resides. Example:

WRONG: http://img.lugnet.com/set/200/new/upload/6571-1-1003418713.jpg

IIRC this actually will give you a broken image if you put it in a page
hosted elsewhere. I haven't tried it in ages (I only tried it to see the
image!) so don't know if it still works to give you the frowny face. I think
it does though.

CORRECT:  http://guide.lugnet.com/set/?q=6571_1&v=z

-- It is suggested that you copy and host the image online yourself.

-- It is not required that you give credit or reference to Lugnet.  It is
actually requested that you do NOT give credit or reference to Lugnet.  The
images are copywrite of The Lego Group and are not the property of Lugnet.

eBay has gotten rather sticky about links appearing in your auction listings
lately but I still give a link to LUGNET(tm) in general, crediting it as a
resource for fans...
