Dear LUGNET Admin,

I would like to formally request (suggest) that a newsgroup (.moc.vignette or
something similar) be created. There have been numerous posts of 'vignette' MOCs
over the past few weeks, and I, for one, feel that there is a substantial
interest in this type of creation, deserving of its own newsgroup for posting.
Vignettes are just that - small and detailed 'slices' of activity. They are not
sculptures, per se, but a small-scaled type of MOC that can be of any theme or
subject.

The creation of a vignette MOC, be it in the traditional 6x6 or 8x8-stud layout,
is both original and creative, as one is limited only by the level of detail in
such a small footprint. Even if it is a 6x10-stud creation, it could still fall
under this category. Furthermore, perhaps The LEGO Company will look at such
creations as something to own/develop/market - small sets similar to the recent
X-Pods. Thanks for listening...

Note, this is my personal thinking, not official policy!

I'm not sure that we ought to create a new group for every "fad" building style
that comes along unless it has legs. Vignettes are very neat, I agree, but I'm
not sure they have longevity.

If a group was created, I agree that build.vignette is probably the correct
group name.

But I think it's a bit premature yet. I could be wrong.

There are newsgroups more suited for 'large-scale' MOCs: such (...) (20 years ago, 21-Oct-04, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, FTX)
