1) Rights and copyrights
This site is run solely by gb and Harry - it is completely
unofficial and is in no way associated with West McLaren Mercedes or
Kimi Raikkonen, his fan club, or his management.
McLaren have a great
site here - it is
good for info and also for retail (particularly if you're a Team McLaren
member).
Kimi's official site is here,
and is the place to join the official fan club. It is also the place where
you can get the official Kimi branded merchandise.
If you want Kimi's autograph, you should apparently send your autograph
request with self addressed envelope and an international postage coupon
to cover the return postage to:
Formula Management Ltd
PO BOX 222

We believe that no
materials on this site are illegal or knowingly contravene any commercial
or individual rights. If you know otherwise, please get in touch by emailing
2) Linking
to KIMI::STUFF images for signatures etc
Please
do NOT link to our images simply to use them in signatures or as avatars
on forums or bulletin boards. If you want to *use* one of our images
for this purpose, then download it, host it yourself or on an image-hosting
site and link to it from there. KIMI::STUFF is a non-commercial site
and we cannot afford to waste money on huge amounts of bandwidth for
things you could host for free. Please show some consideration and help
us conserve our bandwidth. Hotlinking to us without permission is "Leeching"
- plain and simple. Please don't do it.
3) Posting
KIMI::STUFF images to forums
If you want to show one of our desktop wallpapers or other images on a forum
as part of a topic (NOT a signature or avatar), you may link to that image on
condition that you also credit KIMI::STUFF specifically and include a link to
the site. We are able to track this kind of activity and will block the domains
of leechers.
4) Distributing
KIMI::STUFF wallpapers
In principle, yes this is fine - we're glad you want to help
share them with other fans.
This can be arranged by getting in touch with KIMI::STUFF for
instructions on what to link to and how to link it - there's also a basic
requirement for a site credit and site link too.
5) Selling KIMI::STUFF
artworks
Basically, this is a complete no-go. This website prides itself on being
*by fans for fans* and carries a copyright notice on every single page stating
that our artworks and designs are "Free for free distribution".
We strongly object to anybody profiting from our hard work or seeking to enrich
themselves using it. We put a huge amount of time and effort into our Kimi
designs - and that's so they can be enjoyed by you, not sold on for somebody
else's financial gain.
If you find items on the web (eBay for instance... prints, coasters, keyrings...)
that are being sold which use our artwork , please email us.
We love sharing our work with fellow Kimster fans - we despise lazy, greedy
dirtbags making money from it.
