FINALLY!!!! Someone who was a KID once speak up! Tony, a congradulate you,
for your post! It seems all to quick that we forget what it was like to be
a KID and see kool images and copy them.
If you are so worried about your stuff landing all over the net either do
a) Place a copyright notice on the image itself or
b) DO NOT EVER POST IT ANYWHERE!
Just the person some slack. From the looks of the rest of the folder he
appears to be using the folder as a "personnel online storage" place.
REMEBER PEOPLE LEGO IS A TOY!
