    Announcing the new LUGNET Link List Rene Hoffmeister
   Hi All, I would like to announce the new LUGNET Link List: (URL) former Link List, Michael Dorneichs great "Everything LEGO Link Page", is located here now: (URL) this list was last updated more than 3 years ago and it has too many broken links to (...)

     (...) --SNIP-- (...) Hi Rene, I'd like to point you to (URL) which already has a dynamic list of Lego sites. Perhaps it would be worth contacting the owner of the site, Klas. Tim (18 years ago, 27-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
   
        Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List —Benjamin Ellermann
     I think you should add a category: Community General Discussion Sites This would cover several sites that are not affiliated with a specific lug or theme. Examples of such sites are EuroBricks and LEGOfan.org (and since LEGOfan is run by fans, I do (...) (18 years ago, 28-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List Rene Hoffmeister
     (...) Um... I think general discussion sites are also a kind of LUG? As for LEGOFan.org: it is in fact an official site, but I wouldn't mind to see it in both cats. Leg Godt, Rene (18 years ago, 28-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List —Kelly McKiernan
      (...) Actually, LEGOFan.org is run by fans, and it's not controlled by TLG, so it's not an official LEGO property... although it does have permission to use the company mark in the domain name. "LEGOfan.org is a web site owned and operated by a 501c (...) (18 years ago, 28-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List —David Eaton
      (...) Maybe it's changed, but I believe LegoFan.org is not *really* an official site. As I recall, LegoFan was a site that had the official "approval", and had limited sponsorship/endorsement from the company. However, the actual site was always (...)

          Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List —Suzanne Rich
      (...) [...] (...) I agree. However, though I doubt it was ever a point of disagreement, I believe the company insisted there be no discussion of clone brands on the site. And I'm fairly sure they didn't want negative coverage of the product there (...) (18 years ago, 28-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List —Leonard Hoffman
     (...) Would you describe Lugnet as a LUG? I wouldn't. To me, a "LUG" implies an essential real-life interaction that does not happen on forum sites (which are online based). (For example, 'DixieLUG' is a real life club based in Atlanta, (...) (18 years ago, 28-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List —Benjamin Ellermann
      (...) I completely agree with Lenny. There is a difference between online and offline groups. LUG is synonymous with physical offline organizations. LUGs may also have discussion sites (many in Europe do). Discussion sites are different. Lugnet is (...) (18 years ago, 29-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
     
          Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List Rene Hoffmeister
      Hi Lenny & Ben, would it make sense to have a category "LEGO Clubs / User Groups (local)" for all the XyzLUGs and another one "LEGO Clubs / User Groups (worldwide)" for e.g. LUGNET, LEGOFan.org etc.? We should try to keep it quiet obvious to people (...) (18 years ago, 29-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
     
          Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List —Suzanne Rich
      (...) I would suggest the two category headings of: - Local User Groups - Online Communities "Local User Groups" are geographically significant and involve face-to-face meetings and often hold recurring public displays or events. (NELUG, WAMALUG, (...) (18 years ago, 29-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
     
          Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List —Leonard Hoffman
      (...) I agree with this 100% (as well as the solution suggested that I just happened to have snipped away). -Lenny (18 years ago, 29-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

         Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List Rene Hoffmeister
     (...) Ja, but uk turns into uk.gif which is the pre-installed flag graphic (also used on the member directory). But you're right, I've added an en.gif :-) Leg Godt! Rene (18 years ago, 28-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

      (...) I'm guessing it doesn't like apostrophes in the name - you could try doubling up the apostrophe. ROSCO (18 years ago, 28-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
    
         Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List Rene Hoffmeister
     (...) Hi Dave, it's because of the apostrophe, I will have a closer look later today. However, you can add your link by using the typographical mark \ (backslash), e.g. "Sparky\'s LEGO Blog". Sorry for the trouble, Rene (18 years ago, 28-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

         Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List Rene Hoffmeister

Probably you have sub-sites for each theme, so you can submit these links to the corresponding (...) (18 years ago, 28-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
   
        Re: Announcing the new LUGNET Link List —Ted Michon
     (...) Rene- Thanks for doing this. I note that the typo ("bei" instead of "by") appears on every page. Suggestion: You might want to request the email address from whomever submits a link in case there's an issue with content or authenticity. -Ted (18 years ago, 28-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
