First, I don't know If the mods allow this, but this is just an idea.
Who thinks it would be cool if a few customizers made some figures to sell on ebay to donate the money to Haiti? I've participated in three custom charity's at minimatemultiverse, and they were all very successful. It would go something like this: We think of a theme. Recruit customizers to join in. Everyone makes a custom and sends it to the organizer. The organizer sells them on ebay, and the money in paypal is donated to the charity. Opinions?

Here's a banner I made. It'll be edited to say the number of customs being auctioned.
Any ideas for a theme? Maybe original characters (making our own heroes)?

Couldn't that banner cause legal issues?

I guess I never thought of that. Would it because I added onto the logo?

You're still using the GI Joe (and now Cobra) logos. Might cause issues.
Please don't take this the wrong way, but this idea probably won't work. You see, the amount of time it's going to take to organize the entire effort, make the customs, run the auctions, etc. - by the time it's all over, Haiti won't be on everybody's mind anymore. So you may not get as much money as you would like, simply because people care NOW, and they may not in 2 or 3 weeks. As I said, please don't take that the wrong way. I've done plenty of my own custom charity auctions over the past several years, making custom figures and donating items from my collection to auction off for various charities and such. And I applaud the efforts of everyone else that does. I just think that for these type of "emergency" charity auctions/donations, things need to be auctioned off while it's still new and fresh in people's minds. That said.... I'm interested in helping out as well.
