Badly needed here ! Please keep us posted. It would finally finish the restoration of a pin I really enjoy.
Quoted from gearheaddropping:Nice. Assume we will need to find a printer?

I am sure there will be someone offering the service on the DL once they are available.
Quoted from kwiKimart:You mean they're FREE???
I imagine they are free otherwise he would have the people who own the rights to William's coming after him for making money on copyrighted material and sending a cease and desist.

Unfortunately this doesn't matter... I had a collection of Bally / WMS artwork up for free distribution and was shut down by a WMS "Cease and Desist" letter. Not only that, but the license holder at the time took said artwork files (created from scratch by myself and others) and repro'd their own stuff.
... it wasn't pretty.
Some of you may also remember BallsOfSteel.com ...
Quoted from Pantor80:So... any chance this will happen?
Not via Pinside, for sure...

I read up on some of this in the RGP archives. Seems the guy that shut down ballsofsteel only owned the rights to bally stuff, but was making claims he could also shut down any Williams stuff. Even though he didn't have a case, most people that see legal letters from lawyers usually won't fight, especially if they're doing it for free for the good of pinball.
It really kills me that there are these license holders out there just sitting on them instead of using that license to actually.. I don't know, recproduce some of this artwork and make a profit off it instead chasing down people who do it for free simply because nobody out there is willing to do it?
I've thought about this a lot, I wonder if someone ran a website on a server in another country (or even offshore like pirate bay does), and fake the whois entry (good luck contacting me), could someone get away with running a ballsofsteel site again?
