| No, you're fine. The bricks *should* have patterns, but don't. They will be the first things I attempt, if I ever get time to make a patterned brick. :) Oh, and yes, I know we need a "Save As", etc. I'm discussing things like that with Steve and (...) (26 years ago, 14-Oct-98, to lugnet.cad)

| As a fairly new LEGO maniac, I am wondering what the proper terminology is for windows and doors. I understand standard bricks, i.e 2x4x1 (If just 2x4, the third value is understood) but I am unsure as to door and window descriptions. It looks like (...)
