Hey there,

I'm planning on trying to make my web site into more of an actual site rather then just a holding area for my stuff. As part of prettying it up I was thinking of making my links to the Army & Reference sheets into little pictures with an image of that particular race on them, e.g.:



But since all the images used in the buttons will be coming from the GW web site am I able to do this? I could put a disclaimer "all images are copyright to Games Workshop" at the bottom, would that make it ok or not?

Cheers!

Legally no, you can not use any images from the Games Workshop website.

You can use photographs of your own models.

Oh well, that would have looked cool. I'll have to think of something else.

Thanks for the answer. :)

I've e-mailed Andy Hall just in case he will give permission to use the images. I hope he does because it could look very cool and isn't something I could get elsewhere.

I have finished putting a first gloss on my site now. I think it now qualifies as a proper (if still a work in progress) web site, my first one *beams with pride*. :p
