SPACEart.de
Lately, there has been a user named SPACEart who's been uploading several images of his replica weapons that are modeled after the custom weapons in Aliens, Blade II, and Escape from New York. The user has also posted a link to the SPACEart.de website where apparently these are for sale. Just wondering what are some of the fellow mods' feelings about this. Is this okay or should this be discouraged?

I'm one for Discourageing such things. We should be showing the real film props not some cheap knockoff made by someone who probably hasn't even seen the real prop.

I don't have a problem with it. As long as the replica pics look good and they LOOK like the original weapons. |

I know we have agreements with a few prophouses to use their images of movie firearms and such. other than those agreements I as a singular member do not wish to see people just using our site as a way to pimp their own interests. Least we should do is kill all those links to their site as we have not agreed to advertise for them.

Of course I yield to our leader He more wise than I. Never thought that the user was (a) only putting in pics that directed traffic towards a commercial site and (b) only put in links to same said site, and (c) did no other contributions to IMFDB. I stand corrected

I agree with Bunni - it's one thing to use pictures of replica versions of the props, but this dude is obviously trying to use our site to promote his own - without permission. It would be one thing if he came to us first and asked, but he hasn't done that. I say remove 'em.

So are we going to pull all this guys stuff as it's pretty obvious that they are useing out site to advertize their product. Basically remove everything they have put up as it's all watermarked with their site?
