Re: Coolest Brickshelf account —Stefan Garcia

I believe there was some fuss about it a while ago, and rightly so. Without Koyan, BrickSpace would've been a whole helluvalot harder. -Stefan- (19 years ago, 21-Jun-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dat.models.sets, lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.space, FTX)
