  Re: Inferior colour rendering in this year's instructions
 
(...) I've had the same problem-I do NOT like the new color-confusion 'art' at all. I was trained in architecture in college & also took many art courses & did art on my own (& still do); A VERY important concept is to make one's ideas easily read, (...)

  Re: Inferior colour rendering in this year's instructions
 
(...) It's not just you it's impacted me, at least. I consider it a retrograde step too, it tripped me up confusing white and grey. Milton Train Works(tm) instructions will not use shading in the foreseeable future, I don't think... (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Inferior colour rendering in this year's instructions
 
(...) I've noticed that it tends to be particularly bad on slopes. If the sloped side is facing the light source (upper right, IIRC) then it is rendered about five shades too light. Rounded pieces tend to look really weird, too. In my opinion they (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

  fast download with Serial-Tower is no faster
 
Just got my second RIS, a 1.5 with Serial-Tower this time. I did not installed any other software than the previous I had (Win98, JDK1.3, Lejos 2.0, USB Drivers for Lego-Tower).

  Re: carpenter needed for the map mosaic
 
Adrian, What you are asking for might be overkill. I would think some EMT conduit, a piece of tarp/canvas, and some rope to stretch the canvas tight should be more than enough. Portable, too. Basically, you would hang the mosaic from rope/cable (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.events.brickswest)
 
  Re: lsynthcp community development project setup on sourceforge

  Re: Now does this qualify as good Lego marketing?
 
(...) Where did you find this? In a retail shop? I was thinking that perhaps it was a gift from LEGO to some employee after 10 years of faithful service, or something of that ilk. That might make some sense. --Bill. (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

Hello, Is there anyone who will be at the next BayLUG meeting (Sat Feb 8, 2003) who wants some of the 6322 road plates? These are the straight plates that have recently sold out of Shop at Home.

  Inferior colour rendering in this year's instructions
