: : But I didn't understand this:
: : : It is important that you understand we own worldwide rights in all media
: : :in both our OCEAN GIRL series and any spin offs.
: : And so? What do you mean? Does Ghostwriter threatened to steal those rights? Tsk...
: They mean that if I try to develop a spin off of OCEAN GIRL, I can't do that.
: Also, if I try to sell the idea to another company, I can't do that. What they
: are telling me is that they will sue me if I sell this idea to another company.
: Which I don't plan on doing, anyhow.
: : : Please do not continue to write and develop projects based on OCEAN GIRL
: : :or we will be required to seek legal counsel and enforce our rights under
: : :copyright law.
: : Again? I don't understand...they should be proud that they have so many fans in the world, fans who make them a lot of advertising with their "unofficial website of...", and then they threaten to seek legal counsel?
: : What a kind people work at JMS productions...
: : And reading those lines, it seems that to write fanfics (without selling them) it's illegal too...wow, guys! We are all going to pass our holydays in prison!
: It is alright provided we don't try to sell the ideas to other companies. IF we do it for fun,
: then it is alright. It is like those Star Trek groups that create their "Ships" and crews and write
: stories about their adventures.
: Thanks for you support and you will recieve this a FanFic Nebo. For your page only until I get
: mine up and running during my winter holiday.

Sux to be you
