Matt, if you want to research the copyrights then please do so. LOST has always been copyright from day one and that has not changed. There are all kinds of websites that provide info about copy rights. Look at the bottom of the main index page and you will see

We have always asked if guys want to do a product using the LOST logo...they should ask. I do not understand why this would even be an issue. Why would you even question this? if you or anyone else is really just wanting this to be run like a business we can do that but if that is the case we have tons of changes to make, like members fees, private log on's and doo doo like that.
if we let everyone that wanted to make a product that had LOST on it...you would be shocked at some of the bad things guys want to add. I wont even start going into that. But some of the emails I get asking if they could put a lost logo on %*^$... You just would not believe it. How would you feel if we had someone that hated the KJs start their own button or decals with things like, "The LOST KJ Group sucks" there are some very valid reason for using the copyrights...again I just dont understand why anyone would even question this...Come on...
We started up the LOST actually on the JU site first and then we moved it to the EZ Board and now here. We had the copyrights on the EZ Board and here as well.
The guys that take the TONS of time to do this do not get paid...have always tried to keep things going in a very positive direction, and do the right thing for the entire OLOST group. So if we copyright the LOST name to try and keep everyone and their brother from making negitive bad things with the lost name on it...then why would not every single person on this site try and help to preserve that. I dont think there is anything else to say about this at all. later...Clint
