  Re: LEGO SET GUIDE - The Big Picture ?
 
(...) Is this new? I'm pretty sure that when I looked at this the other day both the big and small images linked to the same file - the smaller one was only shrunk. I am also 100% sure that the 6990 image changed since yesterday. Scott A (...) etc.) (...) (26 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: LEGO SET GUIDE - The Big Picture ?
 
(...) Hey, even a stopped clock is right 2 times a day (only once if you're in the military, there's a moral there somewhere...) Scott's right more often than you think, Shiri. I just usually think he could phrase stuff more smoothly, that's all. If (...) (26 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: LEGO SET GUIDE - The Big Picture ?
 
(...) Ya, I'm not bothered by it either, and the medium-sized default images aren't necessarily always smaller (most of the time they are, but not always -- it depends on the size of the originating scan). A smaller initial image makes for much (...) (26 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Reducing fussiness in automated password appraisal
 
(...) Certainly *way* easier to pass. I'd even suggest using level 3. Level 2 passes "c00l!" (just barely). Would it be possible to kick up the relative strength of the dictionary check a bit? (26 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 (...) (26 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: LEGO SET GUIDE - The Big Picture ?
 
(...) 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 (26 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  LEGO SET GUIDE - The Big Picture ?
 
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 (...)

  Reducing fussiness in automated password appraisal
 
Many people feel that the Member password checks on LUGNET are overly stringent -- that it is too hard to come up with a good password that passes the strength appraisal: (URL) is also comfortable to remember. In anticipation of lowering the (...) (26 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.people, lugnet.general)  
 
  Re: Is the "traffic" page off-line?
 
(...) d'Oh! -- you're right. I added some code deep-down for slowing and blocking HTTP accesses from IP addresses which appear to be attempting pw intrusions, and the code there checks the IP address and asserts that it's defined and of the standard (...)

  Is the "traffic" page off-line?
 
Todd, I have been trying to access the Traffic screen and I am a receiving a "webpage does not exist, yada, yada, yada" window from webtv... (and you know how annoying yada, yada, yadas are = ) John (26 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
