My question is about links.  In setting up my Links page, what is the
accepted protocol?  Is it proper to approach other site's owners to ask
permission to post a link to their site?  If so, does this apply to larger
or corporate sites (LUGnet, Brickshelf, FBTB, TLG etc.)? I would love to add
links of many fellow spaceheads sites to my page.

That's a good question.

I'm sure there might be some moral quandry with how I seeded my links page

thanks Kyle? :-)

There seems to be a kind of standard link button size (88x31 IIRC) which
some people enforce and some people don't (I don't :-).  Looking at your
link button's dimensions of 98x36, I wonder if this may prevent you from
being listed on some link pages.

Of course, there is nothing wrong technically or legally in linking to
anyone else's page, and I'm sure no one would object to the increased exposure.

BTW -- Knuckle -- I hope that VMP propulsion unit comes in soon...  :-,

(...) Um, you're welcome! (And I got some of mine from Bram's site :P) And Gil: there is no need to ever ask to link to any site. One of the great parts of the net. And if you want to fill out my link form on my site, you can add your site to my (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-02, to lugnet.publish)
