Q: Can I use your files on my Website?
A: Unless they are marked otherwise, you may use any of Forfeit Island's files freely, provided they are hosted on your own Webspace and not linked directly. Please give proper credit to the original authors. Obtaining their permission before using their files is also encouraged. Before you download all the media from a page to host on your own, however, keep this in mind: There are a lot of Websites out there on the Internet. Instead of creating what is essentially a mirror of all the current Lufia sites, consider how you could make an original contribution to fans of the series.
Q: Can I use your HTML and page graphics?
A: A lot of work has gone into designing Forfeit Island's structure and appearance, so please do not merely lift sections of HTML or layout images to use on your site. This includes the design and layout of the navigation menu.
Q: Can I link to your site? Will you link to mine?
A: Forfeit Island is "link free," meaning you can link to it without asking permission. If you would like to use graphical link buttons (although they are certainly not required for linking), you may find them at the bottom of the page. If you are interested in doing a link exchange or becoming a featured "affiliate," please contact forfeit at electromaz.com with your site's title, address, description, and link button.
Q: Why don't you have Lufia ROMs?
A: The legality and ethics surrounding ROMs are questionable. To avoid disputes with game companies, Forfeit Island does not carry ROMs, including hacked "fan game" ROMs.
Q: Why don't you have MP3s of the soundtrack?
A: For similar reasons as to why we do not have ROMs, we do not have MP3s ripped from the Lufia/Estpolis soundtrack. We will post MP3s of fan arrangements of Lufia songs, however.
Q: File X doesn't work when I try to download it/I can't play/view file X after it downloads.
A: Make sure you are saving the file correctly before you download it. Usually right-clicking/control-clicking and selecting "save link as..." will do the trick. If you cannot access a file because of a broken link, please report it immediately.
Q: Can you e-mail me these files?
A: Sorry, but we have neither the time nor the bandwidth. You'll have to download them all yourself. ZIP files have been provided in the MIDI and icon sections for convenience.
Q: Do you have any more artwork or music that isn't posted?
A: Admittedly, sometimes news is a bit slower to reach Forfeit Island, but we try to make all new media available as soon as possible. We aren't hoarding anything, either; all of our Lufia-related material is posted.
