  Re: [ldraw.org] Update
 
(...) c /banner/logo/ and go look at my LEGO(R) front page. You'll see what I mean. It's a banner or logo and it promotes your site. Glad to do it, mind you, but feel that my point is valid. Most everything else there loads from elsewhence. (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)
 
  backgrounds logo image (was: Re: [ldraw.org] Update)
 
(...) Oh! I see what you mean now. You placed a copy of the flb-logo-small.gif image at the bottom of your page. Hrrm. Re-reading the Terms of Use on the (URL) I guess that point #1 is ambiguous... 1. These images are original artwork and are (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)

I KNEW I should not have gotten into this. The outcome I desired was that you'd agree that you should host banner ads/logos/whatevers used by others to promote your sites, just as everyone else does. In fact many people actually REQUIRE it, they (...) (25 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: backgrounds logo image (was: Re: [ldraw.org] Update)
 
(...) Hmm, I don't think I've actually ever seen that before your mentioning it. Upon looking around a bit, I do see a -bit- of that now. Here are some sites that I'm aware of which distribute promotional images... Note that among this particular (...) (25 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)

Todd: On a tangential topic... is it Fibblesnork, fibblesnork.com, or both that you are asserting trademark on? (I assume both) This discussion caused me to spend some time revising and extending my Disclaimers Page ((URL) which I happen to think is (...) (25 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)

(...) I _don't_ necessarily think you're _not_ right (vis-à-vis deep linking of banner and button images). It's just such an insignificant thing to worry about in the grand scheme of things, IMHO. Especially when deep linking presents problems that (...) (25 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)

(...) Well if they're not text links, what are they to be then? You've removed the logo, right? So text is only choice available. Under the first numbered item, nothing other than backgrounds themselves is allowed to be copied and you don't support (...) (25 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)

Another tangential question... why item #5? (...) An earlier version of my factoring form had the white image as background for the whole thing, except the table cell at the very top which is sort of a title block (that part now has white bricks, (...) (25 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)

(...) Use your imagination. If someone wanted, they could use any of: * Plain text (obviously :) * Rendered text, as seen for example in the left column of (URL) * A screenshot/thumbnail (almost certainly fair use if it's not too big), with or (...) (25 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: backgrounds logo image (was: Re: [ldraw.org] Update)
 
(...) Hmm, good question. IIRC, #5 was written long before backgrounds could be put into tables. So the motivation behind #5 wouldn't have been aesthetic, but rather to limit the ripping off of the images as a collection. But #4 already addressed (...) (25 years ago, 22-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)
