I buy lego sets for the designs, and for the experience of
building someone else's design. I really feel that building
a set is a form of performance art, and the lego instruction
developers are true artists, and it is fun to see things come
together.
I've done a lot of my own creative stuff, and I appreciate
the GoB members and all the people who post to brickshelf and
lugnet.cad.dat who share their "art". Like most art, I believe
some is worth more than others, and worth paying for. I've met few
artists who do not enjoy the chance to view (sometimes critique)
others works. IMO, it would be a rather UNcreative person who
did not appreciate other's designs.
