I also see there is a message asking users to transfer their files to maj.com.

Kevin (or anyone), can you give us some more information? Is Brickshelf going
away immediately? If so, what timetable do we have before our galleries
disappear?

Ah, crud. This stinks, seriously. I was going to rebuild my Black Falcon's
Fortress next month, too, but I didn't download the instructions yet because I
figured they'd always be there.


However, I have a simple solution: Host the library via BitTorrent. I would very
gladly seed it for a loooong loooong time.

I totally agree. It appears from the spolighting of your post, others do as well...

I’ve carried your suggestion to LEGOFan.org

Have you visited The Brick Factory http://www.hccamsterdam.nl/brick ?

You can probably find the instructions there.
