BUY THE MONKEY ISLAND GAMES! BUY THEM NOW! THANKS!

We're not using the pictures and texts from the LucasArts Games to make money or to claim that we've created them ourselves! We're using them to build a temple of advertisement for the Monkey Island Games and their creators. They are the heroes... not us... perhaps we'll be somebody's heroes... some day.
