Todd,
I just pushed the first set of files over to the ftp server.  The file is
imgld0.zip, it contains black images for all parts.  Take a look at this,
let me know if this is a good format (ie, makes it the least amount of work
for you to publish the files).

Full-on swingage!  OK, I see the other colors there too now.  Man, this fully
rocks!  These are nice and very small and _very_ quick to load.


Specifically, is it OK that:

1. There's no path information in the zip.

Yup, that's great.


2. Each color is in a separate zip/file/transmittal.

Fine too!


BTW, the whole set of files is about 100MB of data.  35 colors are
represented.  Each set of files (one color) is between 2MB and 3MB.

OK, I got 'em up now, and the URLs go like this:

   http://img.lugnet.com/ld/color/partno.gif

where 'color' is the LDraw color number {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,
15,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,25,33,34,36,39,41,42,46,47,57,334,383} and 'partno'
is the LDraw part number.  Examples:

   http://img.lugnet.com/ld/0/30152.gif
   http://img.lugnet.com/ld/1/3008.gif
   http://img.lugnet.com/ld/4/73037.gif
   http://img.lugnet.com/ld/14/630.gif
   http://img.lugnet.com/ld/20/6200.gif
   etc.

and of course the colorless (grayed) versions can still be accessed via

   http://img.lugnet.com/ld/partno.gif


I did not apply to brains to the process, to eliminate non-existant
part/color combinations.  Anyone for Chrome World Cup Baseplates?

LOL!  We should have a prize for the one who can come up with the silliest
non-real colored element.  :-)  My bets are on the chrome baseplate.  :-)

Trans-neon-green barrels and train parts, anyone?  :-)
