You may have noticed that we have a new look here at the site formerly known as Lost Video Island. Due to recent copyright infringement cases which have resulted in the tough new assisted copyright infringement laws, we've been forced to abandon Lost as a vidding fandom or risk lawsuits against both the site, the Council Members and quite possibly against all of our vidders themselves. Only the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) chose to exempt their properties from this strict new law so, effective immediately, the only vids we can accept MUST be for the children's television show, Teletubbies.

While we are greatly disappointed by this turn of events, we here at the new Teletubbies Island (TI) feel confident that all of our vidders will continue to produce vids of the same quality and imaginative originality as they did for the former LVI. Thank you so much for your understanding in this matter.

We urge you to read the new rulings for yourself so that you can be sure you've taken adequate steps to protect yourself from any possible legal consequences. This is no laughing matter, folks. Please, please, read this.

The TI Council

Totally fell for it! I didn't realize it was April 1 today.
Seriously best joke ever! I was horrifed for a second there.

(Does that mean we'll be getting any LOST/TELETUBBIES crossovers soon??)
