This analogy is so dead on that it is a shame you are using it in such an
incorrect manner.
No, Kevin does not own the contents of the various Brickshelf folders.
However, just like a landlord he gets to say what does or does not go in
them. And he also gets to evict tenants if he finds them abusing his property.
The relationship works both ways. If you as a "tenant" don't like the way
things are being run at Brickshelf you are free to take your images
elsewhere. No one is making you pay the exorbitant price of nothing for this
service.

Are you really going to be that upset if a few shots of mini-figs making the
ABS beast with two backs are removed? Does the removal of questionable
material by the one person who is legally empowered to do so really justify
all this chicken little crap.

These people should be glad to have a place that will take all the images
they can upload.

The decision hasn't been in place for two weeks an already people are
looking for ways to cheat.
I will chime in with another round of support for Kevin. Brickshelf is cool.
It is still cool. And free. If you don't want to play by the rules start
your own game.
Matt Hamand . . . Would have responded to this sooner but I only noticed
this thread today. I spent my LUGNET time this weekend reading the Pledge of
Allegiance thread. And shopping. Anyone else get Yodas? I picked up 2 as gifts.
