Have you thought of a logo? If not lemme take a whack at it. While the old
ship
orbiting a planet is a great symbol, lego keeps changing their space logos
because thats what they do. We need something classic yet cool. (think how

I'm working on something using the old Space logo because it embodies, more
than anything else, Space Lego. Sure, there were lots of different logos,
Blacktron2, MTron, etc. But nothing sticks in my mind as much as the
Classic/Futuron days when it seemed like there was one big Space Force with
only the mysterious Blacktrons to deal with.

If you look closely, the Star Trek "arrowhead" thing has been around since
the 60's. It was present on the original Enterprise, on the side of the main
hull just aft of the big communications dish. Later, it was adopted as the
official symbol of the UFP and made its way onto the uniforms, and it's
still present everywhere, AFAIK.

We'll let you guys know when we have a website Beta to show you. :^)

'K, First off, The Space world (void) idea is good. I have found it easier of late to build space stuff than the castle stuff. (I don't know, my mind must be geared to the Ether or something) Writting fiction is easy. Getting the stuff in pics and (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.space)
