It does Scott, then when Lego starting visit my site more and more, I had • a
warning email from Denmark about the logo's and in a nice way they asked • me
to remove the logo and they will be very happy, in which I did, and it • will
apply to everything that I do that has the logo there.

I understand your concern, but using a logo divorced from its corporate • context
- ie copying a logo and placing it on a site is very different from
redisplaying corperate literature already in the public domain. But that • said,
IANAL! Have you recieved communication specifically regarding the display • of
catalogues?


In fact I was told by a few employee's of Lego, they do like my site, • they
use it for reverences and in the case of the new customer centre in • Slough
they are actually asking people to look at unofficial sites like mine and
Huw's for details, they are also using Brickshelf and Lugnet.

Congrats :)


I am starting to think that Lego really needs our help as in Information • and
archive of manuals and images, I do wish Lego think of us more? How about
putting a little leaflet inside every Lego box to get people to look at
sites like Lugnet, or Leaflets in Technic Box to my site : A dream come • true
if it did.

What do you think?

It would be nice, but there are probably lots of reasons why it wouldn't • happen
- moderation being one of them - lego.com is heavily moderated, LUGNET and
other sites aren't.

I suppose we could hope for a 'fan web-site' section, with appropriate
disclaimers on lego.com?
