Using Lego as URL/Lego pictures

[bricklayer]

Am I allowed to use the LEGO name as part os my URL for my site?

and

Can I put pictures of Lego on my site(if they have the LEGO name or not)

Thanks,

You could probably use the word "brick"

[Darkdragon]

No you are not allowed to use the LEGO name in your URL at all and you can't use the logo anywhere on your site.

Thank you for clearing that up, darkdragon. I've had similar questions and that link answered them all.

LU!

It is always nice when a company takes the time to give a clear "fair Use" policy so their fans can know what they can and can't do in their desire to support the company or hobby.

Yep. Right up there with saying what you can and can't do with your phone.

Lego's policy is fair enough. Thanks for the link.

I thought this thread was going to be about making URL encoded Matrix/2D barcodes with Lego bricks. :-)

How funny. It would be easy enough to do though.

Thanks for the link Darkdragon.

Your welcome, glad the link solved some questions.

does that mean my account name is illegal?

No, it's not [in] an URL, is it.

If you want to have a usable TLD [Top Level Domain], maybe end it with brick. Be creative !
