One of the big advantages Brickset has over the LUGNET set guide is the quality of the images. When I use either guide usually I just want a good look at the set to see what parts it contains etc. All the extra information now on the set guide (which I admit is of little interest to me - but also acknowledge it may be of great interest to others) means that any decent sized picture on the LUGNET set guide now has is resized smaller. This means that I am almost always clicking for a "pop-up zoom" so that I may get a decent look. 2 Examples: The page gives me: http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6975 But the full image gives me: http://img.lugnet.com/display.cgi?set/space/lego6975.jpg (Huw gives me : http://www.brickset.com/view.asp?Set=6975-1) This one is worse: http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6990 But the full image gives me: http://img.lugnet.com/set/200/space/lego6990.jpg Am I the only one bothered by this?

(...) Not sure I'm "bothered" per se but I do agree that I find the images less satisfactory now than before, and the extra steps to get a large image are extra work. ++Lar (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

Actually, Scott, clicking on this: (...) (URL) clicked on "open link in new window" to find out what the link was, BTW). Maybe Todd just found the time to fix it. ;-) (...) Seems like history was made - Scott and Larry aren't disagreeing, if not (...) (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
