Hi, Did you ever noticed this BS gallery (URL) quite a LEGO purist, and I don't especially like stickers and custom parts. I'm not even a SW fan. But what a great design are these stickers !!

| | New part: Brick 1 x 8 without Centerstuds [DAT]
|
|
I noticed that the old 1 x 8 brick without centerstuds has not been created for LDraw, yet. This part is not even listed in the Peeron database either. This variant is used in the CA period a lot, although I have a red brick which seems ABS to me. (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jul-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Here's the problem! I don't have fast0103.lgo, on swan's site there's only version 1.01. I think using that firmware (where can we find it?) and new NQC API all my problems are solved.

All those flowers look really nice on the scenery. However, the grey ground provides some unnatural look. Have you considered using brown baseplates? Or, as they are hard to find, some sort of green ones? Regards, Chris (21 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.castle, lugnet.town, FTX)
