I'm sorry to be negatif, but are you sure LEGO (TLC) will agree
this kind of site ?
We had our LUG web site that was initially called legofr.org
not a long time after, the lawyer knock at the door ...

Have a look to the fair-play LEGO rules and you will see
that they do accept/tolereate a lot, but not the word LEGO
in you web-site name.


The ironic part is that there is a link to the LEGO Fairplay rules on the
legolinks.com site. If you read the rules you will see the following paragraph:


"The LEGO trademark should not be incorporated into an Internet address.
Internet addresses have become useful tools for people to identify the
source of a homepage. Using "LEGO" in the domain name would be creating the
misleading impression that the LEGO Group sponsored the homepage. "
